By the editors · 2 min readSonges opens with a rush of frangipani—not the creamy, suntan-oil variety, but something greener and almost watery, touched by the faint sweetness of tiare. The tropical flowers never feel heavy or sticky; instead, they hover in a light haze, as if filtered through humid air. There's a suggestion of ylang-ylang and gardenia in the heart, but they remain restrained, blending into a soft floral blur rather than announcing themselves individually.
As it dries down, a delicate jasmine sambac weaves through the composition, adding a hint of earthiness without pulling the fragrance into indolic territory. The base stays clean and slightly powdery, maintaining the dreamy, twilight quality suggested by the name. Songes feels like an intimate interpretation of a tropical garden—not bright vacation exuberance, but the quieter moment after sunset when flowers release their scent into cooling air. It suits someone looking for white florals with grace rather than volume.
