White sandalwood, iris, blue musk, lotus root, moonflower, plum blossom, green tea, white mint and white peach.

In bottle: a clean and clear white scent, faintly floral, with hints of that blue musk. I can also sense the tea note floating in the background; definitely a "silent", pensive blend, although it does have a rather solid presence.

Lilium speciosum, rice wine, white grapefruit, lotus root, bourbon vanilla, and vanilla orchid.

In decant: huh, boozy? Definitely rice wine, and a rather spicy floral. I'm not quite sure what I'm smelling, to be honest. I looked up what "lilium speciosum" is, and it's Japanese lily, but this is not like any lily I've smelled so far (and I like ( Read more... )

Wet on skin: light florals, and a sort of shimmering scent. Not very apple-y, and there is a similar feel to this that I've noticed in blends that have turned grandmothery on ( Read more... )

A white chypre with bergamot, rose otto, ylang ylang, tonka absolute, lotus root, blood orange, white fig, rock rose, mate, and violet leaf.

In decant: heady fruity floral. Bergamont, rose, blood orange, fig. Uh, actually...all might be there somerwhere. It's a colorful, almost chaotic and confusing melange of notes, most of them fleeting, always ( Read more... )
