White Floral Jasmine
Opus VIII has a lovely white floral opening. The top notes lead with jasmine but the ylang ylang is in there. The floral notes do not totally blend together. Instead, they are detectable in a way that has them dancing around playing nicely together versus becoming one. Sometimes this one opens with the woody notes in the opening. No idea why it changes each time I wear it, but that is just fine by me.
The middle notes are softer, add vetiver and smell a bit minty in a good way. This is the part of the perfume that I enjoy the most.
The sillage is medium to heavy, and the longevity is more than 10 hours.
I have worn this four times now. I like it even more each time I wear it.
