Night Scented Jasmine by Floris

Noelia

I am not a jasmine fan..in fact i hate pure jasmine! This one is a light floral green fragrance.Jasmine is here but not in a heady way.Its soft and powdery .Jasmine blends with gardenia,mimose,narcissus and rose creating an airy flowery result.Not my cup of tea,but it is nice for all those who love jasmine in this soft way!

I just bought this perfume through eBay.
I totally agree with the other reviews, but for some reason i like it, but i don' t love it.
If i close my eyes and picture myself walking past a Jasmine plant on a warm summer night, then i do get the feeling with this perfume.
In the beginning you really smell the Jasmine, after a while i feel that the rose scent takes over but the Jasmine is still there.
Unfortunatly the overall vibe reminds me a little bit too much of an air refreshner.
One moment i like it and then the other i am doubtfull again, so i will be putting it back on eBay.
I am a big Jasmine lover and searching for a perfume that is a little more heavy on the sweet Jasmine.
I am crazy about the Flying Fox temple balm from the Lush (really a recommandation for Jasmine lovers)
But since i like to indulge myself in this scent, i have to put a lot of balm on my skin, and that makes my skin very oily.
Unfortunatly they don' t have a liquid fragrance of it.
If anybody knows a perfume close to the Flying Fox, please let me know!

I agree with sky76sky's review. This is an absolutely gorgeous fragrance appropriate for enjoying in warm or cool weather. There is something about it that reminds me of a heated greenhouse. Perhaps it is the way the florals easily combine together almost producing a warming effect. It doesn't have a incredibly great sillage, but it is very noticable and pleasing close to the skin. Beautifully done, Floris!

I love Floris - they aren't cutting-edge or dated, they don't create with the intention to shock, they never smell synthetic, they just produce wonderful, well-structured genuine floral perfumes. No excess frills, they are very well-mannered & classic - truly exquiste (bar Santal & Florissa IMO).

Night Scented Jasmine is a fabulous Floris scent. Jasmine alone could so easily be cloyingly heady, too sweet & pungent for most noses....I adore burying my nose into jasmine flowers but I could not take that kind of potency wafting from my skin all day long.

NSJ starts with the most gentle citrus lift, orange blossoms & warm spicy cituses, not sharp bitter ones. The violet leaf is barely there & nicely peppery-green (I find violets so hard to wear - taking over the perfume& giving me headaches).

Very quickly the heart of the fragrance warms & blooms on the skin & it is a rare, rich & heady delight without being sickly or too deeply 'purple'. The jasmine is represented very well - it is a true scent, like walking past a beautiful jasmine plant in the thick, still, warm air on a hot summer eve. I definitely smell gardenia & white florals, & a few green stems.

As it settles jasmine is still the overall note you detect but it keeps getting richer & deeper. Roses appear - the deep honeyed amber rose, not a clear white rose & there is a light muskiness. Sandalwood keeps the fragrance from floating away - it is a creamy depthy number after 4 hours. Sillage is good, especially for a floral.

After 6 hours I am left with a whisper of the fragrance but with a slightly green-bitter note - this is the only part of the perfume that lets it down.

If you like jasmine & rose, but don't want to smell sickly-sweet this fragrance is for you.
