I would enjoy hearing something a bit more about how you'd imagine yourself wearing it--seasons, times of day, occasions, moods, weather, in what company. I appreciate your extensive aesthetic assessments of the smell as smell, but it is after all made to be worn, so it would be very helpful to hear more on that score.

I bought this for my birthday and it is one of the best Osmanthus forward scent I owned... A huge love...❤

As soon as I smelled it, it took me straight to Chanel No 5 Parfum. It smells so similar to my nose. My mother still wears that version and this smells so close to that

If you like that one try the jasmine tobacco :) i get a civety drydown but one thats more subtle floral civet with some tobacco.

That feeling of being silenced by a perfume is a rarity for me. But so satisfying. Almost like soul food. 🧡 On the other side of the spectrum, I sampled Hermes' new Un Jardin a Cythere today and what a flat, queasy flop. 😐 Like expired hand cream. Or playing a barfsichord. I think I just invented a new instrument. 🤢

Try Arsenic Osman by Laurent Mazzone Parfums

Interesting that you guys said the osmanthus you tried smelled like stewed fruit. I have a french osmanthus absolute i got from a really reputable vendor and the smell for me as a sharp, very bright peach like floral. I always associated the smell with bright yellow beaming rays of sunshine.
