Suede Osmanthe 5.1

Emotion: Clean cotton sheets with leather belt on. Very Clean, expensive "detergent" you may say, cotton (not on the notes list though!..), with a substle hint of leather, very comfy, office-friendly and unoffensive. White shirt, business meeting appropriate. I find it quite similar to Blance Byredo and Coton Egyptien Phaedon, in the sense it is very soft with a hint of leather. Great sillage for 2 hours and it becomes a skin scent in 4 hours. Quite poor longevity, but appropriate for re-applying. If you like Clean Fresh laundry and Warm Cotton, you will like this one as well. Safe blind buy for this category.

Apricot, soap and leather. What an interesting mix. The fresh fruit tea makes my mouth water, but then the soapiness of the aldehydes abates the invitation. The suede is thin and rough. The overall effect is like an apricot facial scrub with a hint of woody dryness. Suede Osmanthe finishes quite light but overall is appealing and easy to wear with different notes rising intermittently. It's an artful fragrant experience that will appeal to those looking for something new without being obnoxiously radical.

I love this scent. It is fruity in an abstract sort of way and slightly soapy. The suede note is polite but it certainly adds a touch of class to the fragrance. In addition, the black tea note and a clever blend of synthetic molecules give it an element of mystery and depth. Unisex and long-lasting. There is a big sillage at first, but it fades within two hours. A subsequent skin scent can be detected.

This is beautiful. When I'm wearing it I feel clean and put together. It is perfect for the office but also interesting with the green osmanthus. I mostly get the osmanthus and also the aldehydes. The suede is very very soft. I'm normally not drawn to fragrances with leathery/suede notes, but I love this fragrance very much. It does fade away after 3-4 hours.

Gorgeous scent! Starts with a fresh and somewhat bitter and tart scent of a peach stone center, but quickly develops into beautiful soft osmanthus based suede: warm, comforting and slightly powdery. It’s sooooo soft and smooth that it’s almost buttery for my nose. Love it! My ig: scent.guide
