L’Occitane Collection de Grasse Jasmin & Bergamote, Magnolia & Mure ~ fragrance reviews
La Collection de Grasse is a new quartet of fragrances from L’Occitane, and something of an introduction, perhaps, to the house’s newly announced in-house perfumer Karine Dubreuil (although she has developed fragrances for L’Occitane in the past, including Eau des Baux, L’Eau des 4 Reines and Myrte from the Notre Flore collection).
Today, reviews of Jasmin & Bergamote and Magnolia & Mûre; coming up on Thursday, Vanille & Narcisse and Thé Vert & Bigarade.
Jasmin & Bergamote
mandarin, bergamot, jasmine, lemon leaves, sandalwood and cedar
This is the one of the four I was most looking forward to, and it is in a fact a pretty enough, very wearable summer-weight floral. It’s a bit citrusy and a bit green (almost grassy), with a pale woody dry down. It’s not indolic, nor even a jasmine bomb…
And the winner is…
…Suzrwin, who takes the Lush + Rosie Jane + Tauer Perfumes products from our last draw. Congrats!
Tonight is our night
Models Hanna Wahmer and Francisco Lachowski for the new Cacharel Amor Amor In A Flash.
