What does Fleur Japonais smell like?
The notes read as a single whole rather than in stages: Japanese cherry blossom and magnolia give it a fresh, fruity floral side, while sandalwood softens it. Labdanum and frankincense add a resinous, faintly smoky warmth. Sweet, spicy and oriental accents keep the flowers from staying purely light, pulling them toward a powdery, warm tone. The balance sits comfortably on either a feminine or a masculine skin.
