Rounding off a jasmine day with a jasmine fave
From the brand: "In Tamil Nadu, flowers hold a sacred place in daily life, often used in religious ceremonies and social occasions. Jasmine sambac buds, locally known as 'malli', are particularly cherished. The name 'Malli Nadu' literally translates to 'the land of jasmine', reflecting the fragrance's deep connection to this region."
I am a huge jasmine lover and absolutely ADORE this fruity, floral aquatic homage to the vibrant Tamil Nadu state, showcasing its jasmine sambac, tuberose and stunning davana, beautifully mixed with fruity, juicy mandarin and orange, and grounded by cedar, vetiver and creamy sandalwood.
There's nary a hint of powder or indole to be found, so for anyone put off by those elements of white florals, try this and see if you may in fact be a floral fan!
This jasmine soliflor has no heaviness and feels very light and natural - likely owing to the fact that the founder of Nissaba, Sebastian Tissot, is a very experienced and reputable sourcer of raw, natural materials, having worked for Firmenich for many years - setting up their first sustainable materials division - and not to mention the perfumer is the highly talented Ilias Ermenidis.
If you are someone that prizes quality ingredients or sustainability in perfume making, I'd highly recommend looking at this brand!
Sometimes in fragrance it feels like you need to compromise on ethics, quality materials, composition or wearable scents, but I've tried every fragrance from this brand and can hand on heart say that there is not a single one I didn't like (*and have ended up with at least 10ml of all of them, full bottles of three and an eye out for two more!). The quality is very apparent and I love the story behind the house. Check them out, perfume lovers!
