Description

Harvested in the summer months, deep within Guilin, the Absolute D’Osmanthe is a modern take on the century’s old fragrance. These flowers bloom in between October and November, filling the entire valley with a scent of dreams. For the past 2000 years this fragrant flower, the smell reminiscent of an Apricot, has been enamoured by many. This seductive and audacious fragrance is built around the Osmanthus flower, with sweet fruity accents and is complemented by sambac jasmine, labdanum and sandalwood. This 7.5ml is perfectly sized for easy packing and travel. 

Notes from the Playground: 

Osmanthus is truly unique; despite being floral, its scent is sweet and fruity, very similar to apricot. But it’s also remarkably soft, with a supple suede-like texture that’s warm and enveloping. In Absolue D’Osmanthe, Perris Monte Carlo has beautifully captured the various facets of this exquisite golden flower. Beginning with a bold burst of sweetness, Absolue D’Osmanthe quickly mellows and becomes a syrupy floral with a delicate touch of jasmine. Over time, the base notes of vanilla, dry woods and sandalwood create a suede-like softness that’s warm, gentle, and a little smoky.
