24 Faubourg

Mostly creamy heady flowers like jasmine and gardenia, rich and full. Underneath that, bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel.

It opens on hiacynth, orange and ylang-ylang, moves through orange blossom, gardenia and jasmine, and settles on amber, sandalwood and patchouli.

• orange: round, sweet citrus. Warmer and less cutting than lemon
• ylang-ylang: rich yellow flower, sweet and faintly banana-like with a creamy finish

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
