Le Jasmin

There is a proverb in our country that says "you can't have everything together: you can't have God and dates together"! Miller Harris Le Jasmine perfume is a masterpiece of pure natural quality that lacks in performance. Well, It is expected and normal that when the quality of a perfume is so pure and excellent and the ideal type of a natural type, it should have a moderate power in spreading and staying power or to some extent be poor in performance of longevity and sillage! I think all of Miller Harris Somehow have average performance, but we need quality more/rather than performance! We need Miller Harris, Every now and then we need Miller Harris perfumes to remember the quality and artistic nature of perfume art! Some of the fragrantica users want to close the case of Miller Harris perfumes once and for all, but we think that no one has given such a position and/or the Legitimate authority to these delusional people and they can only shut their mouths or open their minds once and for all.With Best regards and great respect for all delusional petty dictators😉 With the Best and highest regards to all respectable and democratic users of the Fragrantica site

For a scent called Le Jasmin this starts very citrusy, fresh, fruity and slightly aromatic with lavender and rosemary. The opening feels very bright, uplifting and refreshing. It settles indeed into a white floral forward fragrance once it gets to the heart notes. The jasmine from the name accompanied by orange blossom and ylang ylang create a rich, vibrant and beautiful floral bouquet. My favourite phase in the fragrance development. It’s smells beautiful and natural on both stages actually and it’s definitely a very dynamic fragrance. I think that this evolving structure creates a very versatile fragrance that it’s perfect for both spring and summer season. Once it gets to the dry down the most prominent notes I detect are still the florals: jasmine, orange blossom with the addition of woody facets thanks to the cedar. Maybe some vague white musk but not much. All in one, I love Le Jasmin. Unlike Craft&Glamour, the performance on this one is very mediocre. It lasts for about 3 hours on skin and 6 hours on clothing with an intimate sillage. This is the type of fragrance that you wear it for yourself and mainly in high heat.

Fresh, citrusy, zesty, floral. Very feminine. Love this for spring and summer. It's light, fresh, playful. A kind of sparkling, fizzy, flower with citrus scent. Reminds me of sitting in an English garden in early spring with all the spring flowers in bloom, after a light gentle rain, with the smell of thunder still in the distance, and you're sat drinking a sparkling, fizzy and bubbly lemonade. Absolutely beautiful. The silage is subtle, sits quite close to my skin (maybe a foot or two away) but I work in close proximity to people and always get compliments on this. The longevity is quite poor, as is expected with most citrus frags though. However, I will still repeatedly buy this forever despite this because its just so good!

More citrus heavy cousin of Annick Goutal's Nimfeo Mio. The latter is a herbal green fig, with a citrus nuance, while this one is a citrus/bergamot green chypre, with a twist of jasmine. Both has this cooling herbal freshness, both are awesome. Unisex, long lasting for a freshie due to oakmossy base. Awesome!

I bought a travel spray of this one since it is no longer in production. I like chypre's and I like this house so I knew it would be good and it is. The only thing that is strange about this perfume is its name. Le Jasmin conjures up thoughts of a lush white floral bomb, this isn't that at all, in fact the jasmine is just a nuance. This is a classic aromatic, herbal, citrus and oakmoss chypre. It reminds me a bit of Eau de Patou by Jean Patou but this one is a lot more herbal but it is the same type of perfume. This is clean, unisex, even leaning masculine (I will still wear it though) aromatic and fresh spicy. Very brisk, would be a great wake me up scent to get you ready for your day much like the perfume I am wearing today (had to get up early LOL) Eau d' Hadrien by Goutal Paris. It will wake you up, put a smile on your face and a spring in your step. Hello sun and hello world is what this type of fragrance says....

On the first spray (this is blind bought), I only got citruses and it felt weird cuz the name is “Le Jasmin”, I had to find the jasmine note and it sure is subtle. White floral cousin of Tea Tonique, kinda like YSL Libre in a sense that it’s a lemony version, comes off as unisex to me. I feel like opening a can of san pellegrino lemon soda that I took from the fridge when I wear this in a hot summer day, I like pairing this with a straw hat and a white beach dress. Don’t worry over spraying this, sillage and longevity are both on the poor side, got a lot of compliments from both men and women too. Some tk maxx stores sell this in 100mL bottle, really worth getting it’s now £32, £75 on MH official site. I don’t recommend blind buying this, what I like may be what you hate, test this out before purchase!

Bergamot up front then dries to a musky jasmine. A greenness remains present, but it's all understated. MH pride themselves on using natural ingredients and it shows. The contrast with some other perfumes I own is stark. I'd describe this fairly as 'beautiful', something suited for daytime during summer at a formal party or wedding. It's not an indolic jasmine, or a sweet, sexy jasmine that appear in some beast mode designer perfumes. Maybe if Chanel's Pour Monsieur was crossed with Jasmine Rouge? Like both these scents performance is lasting but projection subtle, with a close bubble. Full retail is about £150 for 100ml, this is way too steep. I've seen it below £60 on discount, that's decent value in my book and my rating is based on that sort of price. 3/5

Its lovely - fresh, tart (not sour like some chypres, the oakmoss is in right balance here), a slightly aromatic lemon/bergamot on jasmine. Me likey. Perfect on a warm spring early summer day when you want a scent that wakes you up, freshens you energetically, brightens you. If this was a colour it would be white.

Citrusy Jasmine. A mix of eau de cologne and white florals. Quite understated and soft. Perfect for hot summer days when you want to smell fresh wearing citrus cologne with an extra je ne sais quoi. It dries down to something salty and mineral. I like it! A lot!

A citrus bomb similar to PR Acqua Viva but without the longevity.

یواش یواش دارم به این نتیجه میرسم که پرونده عطرهای میلر هریس رو برای همیشه ببندم و کلا بزارمش کنار . تقریبا هیچ عطری از این برند نتونست حداقل های نظر مثبت منو جلب کنه ‌. ( جز فضای نچرال) عطرهای ساده . سبک و فاقد جذابیت‌های هنری . شاید اگر قیمت پایینی داشتند میشد سخت نگرفت . ولی با اینکه قیمت گرونی هم ندارند تا این جای کار از نظر من جالب نبودند . . ل جزمین بر خلاف اسمش اصلا عطری نیست که بوی یاس سامباک داشته باشه .بحث محوریت رایحه گل یاس به کنار دیگه . عطریست زیبا . ملایم . رومانتیک با شروعی از بوی پوست لیمو + حس سبز و معطر پتی گرین . همین ... به همین سادگی فضای کاملا سیتروسی . تو قلب عطر بعد از ده دقیقه میشه کمی حس وایت فلورال رو احساس کرد که فضای کلی عطر رو می‌بره تو کلاس بویایی وایت فلورال سیتروسی . چون بوی گلها ادغام میشه ( خیلی ملایم ) احساس میکنید دارید بوی پوست لیمو شیرین یا گل مگنولیا رو بو میکنید ‌. تمامممم . کیفییت عطر عالیه . اما پرفورمنس خیلی بد . بخار نداره شاید نیم ساعت مفید باشه بعدش اسکین سنت میشه. از نظر من بیشتر ی بادی اسپلشه لوکسه تا ی عطر نیش ‌‌...

just lemon and cedar: disappointing, not bad, but nothing special

The name of this fragrance is something of a misnomer in the sense that the florals play a distinctly secondary role to the citrus. It is certainly a summery delight though, with a clean and soapy orange blossom muddled through the head notes that gives the same impression as a nighttime shower in the Mediterranean next to an open window. It is fleeting as limerence and equally intoxicating. I reach for it infrequently but every time that I do I wonder why it's been so long since I wore it last. Probably because of the aforementioned brevity of the experience or perhaps my excessive collection of samples, decants and oddments. Regardless of my personal peccadilloes, Le Jasmin is a pleasant experience. Breezy and bright and dappled in sunshine.

I have tested this perfume over and over again to understand it. My initial reaction years ago was ‘no way’, just too brash! Not my MH. Then, years passed and I’m still trying it out, giving it a chance after a chance, and coming back to it like I still want to understand it. My interpretation might make you laugh... The initial stage feels like a tantrumy child screaming its head off, with its citrusy blast. But, after 15-20 minutes it all calmes down to a comforting jasmine hum, still citrusy but now subdued. A perfect harmony, or peace if you prefer to say, at last. Quite a gem if you take time to live with it.

Juicy citrus lavender opening, a sister to Citron Citron. While Citron Citron is a dry herbal tea, Le Jasmin is juicy citrusy, veeery lemony. Couple minutes in, jasmin shows up, very clean white jasmine. Nothing indolic, sexy nor dirty, soft creamy sunny ylang is present. Dry down also similar to Citron Citron, lots of oakmoss. Le Jasmin is like Citron Citron + jasmine and ylang. I own both - do I need both? Hmmmm.... I'd say yes, they're different enough, the clean, tender, luminous jasmine is very present here. That's different enough.

It's a really pretty, natural smelling citrus aromatic take on Jasmine that is perfect for a warmer weather. There's something very elegant about it compared with other freshies, but not to the point it feels wrong with casual clothing. It just smells polished and expensive. Anyone who says they can't pick up Jasmine should try it on one hand and a classic Jasmine-heavy fragrance, such as Elie Saab Le Parfum on the other. Wait 20-30 mins for it to dry down and smell both hands, you'll be able to smell what's similar.

I double opinion below - it's not about jasmin, it's citrus aromatic fragrance. Jasmin lasts for first 5 min and gone forever, you'll be left with light musky herbal cologny base. Pretty monotonous, fades in an hour, sits close to skin, a bit faceless. Not bottle worth in my opinion, MH has so much better perfumes on same subject in its range.

This is more of a citrus scent than a jasmine frag. Citrus takes the center stage while jasmine lingers in the background but never steals the spotlight. The overall effect is very light green floral scent.
