Cold Moon: Jasmine Absolute and Champaca

Recommended Posts

I sampled this, fell in love, and just ordered a full bottle.  It's funny to me that, as a teen and in my early 20s, I used to avoid jasmine scents and I considered jasmine to be my #1 death note.  At some point, I started drinking and obsessing over jasmine tea and growing different varieties of jasmine, and now I also tend to love jasmine perfumes.  The jasmine here is wonderful and sweet with nuances of vanilla and honey, with the champaca giving it a warm, incensey haze, so the whole fragrance feels like sunshine and a warm hug.  I love the sweetness and creaminess that it has, and I love fragrances that give off this vibe of being in a temple full of incense and offerings.  It has none of the soapiness, sharpness, or funk that jasmine can sometimes have.

I like champacha, and I've liked some blends with jasmine, so I was excited to try this. I learned two things:

1. I do not like jasmine as much as I thought I liked jasmine

2. This one is all jasmine, all the time

Very strong, lots of throw, not keeping it around.
