Lovely upon first spray, both fresh and creamy. I smell white flowers and a slight green freshness. After an hour or so, though, all I’m getting is a faint jasmine dry down. The fragrance has...

The linden blossom in here is very sharp and fresh and I get a creaminess from the jasmine and tuberose that contrasts nicely with that freshness. This lasts well, too. I sprayed it last night...

Spicy. Peppery. Warm and cool at the same time. Resiny. Lovely... <br>It's the scent of a woman assured of her charms, full of sensuality, with a mysterious aura and a dark undercurrent (do I...

Sweet roses and very pleasant overall. Not as sweet as Lipstick rose or even Drole de rose (I am not counting that as a con , too much sweetness is not for me) and it has a less candied and rather...

Foody(?) in the most unusual sense. If I didn't read it had basmati rice notes I'd say it has notes of chips cooked in corn-oil: that sense of vapour rising which you catch from afar. Sorry if I am...

I cannot believe how much of an aberration my experience is. Alas, on my skin, Champaca throbs as a bamboo focused floral with a premature surfacing of musky tea. The end result on my skin is...

I'm not sure why this has been rated so low, overall. The drydown really makes this scent, imo. Matter of fact, I find it superior to Osmanthus, in that respect. I don't seem to get that typical...

Oh Champaca, Champaca, how much I wanted to love you. I read your notes - they sounded wonderful. I went to the shop - it was beautiful. I sprayed you on a card - it smelled delicious. I put you on...

Very few times will I run across a fragrance that is unlike any other. Ormonde is one of those fragrances. I scarcely have any existing fragrance to compare it to! It has the smokiness and...

Like most Ormonde Jayne fragrances, Champaca has a distinctiveness that I've not found in other lines. On my skin, this goes on sharp and citrus at first. To be honest, on first blast, I was not...

I received a large sample of Frangipane with an OJ order. When I spritzed it on paper, I was mesmerized; the frangipane scent came across loud and clear, both sharp and soft with a creaminess that...

Ta'if was my first Ormonde Jayne purchase, and it definitely won't be my last! I find this fragrance markedly similar to KM's Gourmandises - so similar, in fact, that I initially thought that I'd...

This is a sharp yet creamy frangipane scent; lush, droopy blossoms and wet, green, freshly cut stems. It is gorgeous for sure, but on my skin it sometimes tends to have an oddly prominent jasmine...

This smells so unusual and amazing in my sample vial, but becomes very simple and flat on my skin. This is probably a fault of my chemistry. I get something spicy for a couple of minutes and then...

A nice floral which intensifies over time as you wear it and it mixes with your chemistry. It smells very fresh cut, very stem-y and wet with a distinct green side to it. Overall very very lush,...
