Jonquille Thé
7.9Musc et Madame · 2017
Fresh · Citrus · Floral
Musc et Madame Jonquille Thé is a fresh, citrusy floral built on narcissus, black tea and linden blossom, softened by a sweet, powdery warmth and worn by anyone, as a unisex perfume.
Narcissus absolute and jasmine sambac form the floral core, while bergamot and black tea keep it bright. Apricot adds a fruity note, and orange blossom and tonka bean sweeten it. Orris root brings powder, and vetiver and leather give it a woody, slightly animalic depth.
Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without crowding the room. Voters place it mostly in leisure, business and evening wear. Feminine and masculine votes run close together, so it sits comfortably on either. Guerlain Shalimar Souffle d'Oranger and Amouage Sunshine Man have a similar profile.
