What does Nargis d'Osmanthus smell like?
Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong, though the number of ratings is small, so these figures are tentative. There are no season or occasion votes, so nothing can be said about when it suits best; it reads neither strictly masculine nor feminine.
It opens with Chinese rose, night-blooming jasmine, blue lotus and bergamot. In the heart, osmanthus absolute, honey, narcissus and oud thicken the floral brightness. In the base, Mysore sandalwood, musk and ambergris with oakmoss add a woody, animalic depth. Lancôme Magie Noire and Rochas Mystère have a close profile.
