Zephyr

I owned this a few years ago and loved it so much that I used the entire bottle, which is something I rarely do as I have so many perfumes! I can still smell it in my mind's ey... er, nose? The top notes were fresh juicy tangerine and white tea and they sparkled for a while before drying down to a citrus amber musk. I wouldn't be surprised if there were aldehydes here as well. I do remember honeysuckle at the heart, intermingling with the citrus and white tea, but fading in the drydown. It had an almost "rain" like quality as well... perhaps it was the tea note but it had an almost aquatic freshness without being an aquatic perfume, per se. I loved it. I live abroad now; otherwise I would but another bottle.

This starts out sweet, fruity, aquatic, and generically floral, with a warm tobacco-amber note. It’s one of the more commercial-smelling perfumes from NM, especially in the opening half hour, when it has that scratchy green-tea note that irritates my nose and makes me sneeze. After that it changes into a light, slightly aquatic fruity-floral. It’s quite long-lasting, at least 8-10 hours on skin. Zephyr is a nice, well-made perfume, but a little too aquatic and generic for my taste.

mostly tangerine with a hint of tea and white musk; dries down with the tangerine and orange to smell a bit like orange blossom

This is a really great spring/summer casual fragrance. I get predominately honeysuckle, Orange, musk, and tea leaves. It has a sort of organic sweetness which is cleverly offset by rejuvenating freshness.The rest of the notes play a very minor supporting role. As another reviewer pointed out, It's not super "niche" smelling. It has a more commercial fragrance feel than NM is typically known for. However, it has excellent silage and longevity and I am quite impressed with the atomizer function. This is my first full bottle of a NM fragrance and the atomizer expels a decent amount of fragrance with each spray. One or two squirts and you're set. It's been 6 hours and I've no need for reapplication. If you like slightly sweet, natural smelling fruity florals, you will probably like this a lot. It's going to get a good amount of use from me for sure. It's just lovely!

This smells like a classic fragrance. Very tender, feminin and sensual. Every note is comforting and airy... the base is wonderful and stays close to the skin. Stayingpower is good, the only negative about this fragrance could be that I don ́t find it so uniqe.

Love it! It effervesces and refreshes. I can get all the notes listed but it's still the whole well balanced scent. Both women and men could wear it easily.

Fantastic sweet citrus opening. This would be a perfect summer scent. It is light and sweet but never cloying. It smells delicious - good enough to eat.
