Miss Soprani

By the editors · 2 min readYlang-ylang opens with creamy banana sweetness that immediately blankets the sharper green facets of peony and the waxy pollen lift of freesia. Magnolia lands next, its lemon-cream petals thickening the ylang heart while jasmine injects indolic radiance that keeps the bouquet from turning cloying. Oakmoss stitches a cool forest floor under the white petals, letting vetiver’s dry grass smoke rise through the flowers and slice the cream. Amber smooths the transition, turning the moss-vetiver spine into a soft skin-linger glow rather than a bitter chypre tail. Projection stays polite, blooming roughly a forearm’s length for the first three hours before settling into a clean-laundry aura. Spring through early fall office wear suits it best, especially humid days when the jasmine can exhale without overheating.
