How does Maison Asrar Dear Jasmine smell?
Fruit and zest come first: bergamot gives sparkle, blackcurrant is tart, and peach and apple add soft and crisp sweetness. All of that is a lead-in for the heart, which is clearly the point of the list. Jasmine, rose and tuberose are three rich, generous flowers, and tuberose in particular is creamy and heady, so the centre should feel full and bouquet-like rather than delicate.
Sandalwood, musks and vanilla provide the base. Sandalwood adds smooth, milky wood, the plural musks suggest a soft, layered cleanness, and vanilla sweetens the finish gently. Together they probably explain the Oriental family word: this is a floral that ends warm and creamy instead of fresh, with the fruit up top keeping the first impression lively. Nothing darker is listed, so the warmth most likely comes from the vanilla and the sandalwood.
