untamed, wicked, sexy - man blossom stories...
The story of the reliability of perfume classifications is well known to everyone here. But that's a fragrance that outshines the unisex character of many fragrances that are classified as such, and is even marketed as feminine by the manufacturer... The subjectivity of my opinion may have been influenced by the long enthusiasm about this fine jasmine scent, so quickly to the essential.

Etat Libre d'Orange presents a title that could not be more appropriate to the fragrance. Especially in the first minutes of the opening, Jasmin boasts clearly, asserts his head with Indolian moves. Bright and dirty sprinkles enchant and are accompanied by a minimal freshness. The dominant jasmine must quickly give way to a finely crafted smoky note. More tobacco than campfire, with a warm sweetness that never seems sticky or even thick, but rather like the natural softness of a good pipe tobacco.
To use this note seems logical to me, at least if one had wanted to market Jasmin et Cigarette as tailor-made for men. The peculiarity of jasmine's flowers can only be controlled by smearing them. Fresh men's fragrances are often tamed, the actually indolish-dirty and juicy character of the flower makes room for a radiant white, clean jasmine. This may make it easier to wear for many men - but the actual spell of this white flower is lost. Here it was completely renounced, here is supplemented and here is counter-worked. With a warm astringency and a wicked aura. And exactly this strong contrast gives a clearly masculine edge.

Following the course, a delicate hay note and spicy woods push themselves into the picture, soften the tobacco and give the jasmine a warm, unsweet base. However, the fragrance never loses its rather dry and harsh character. For me, the budget Libre d'Orange fits best into the summer. When the sun slowly goes down, the perfect moment seems to have come. Dressed in casual to extroverted touches, it underlines the lightness and the flaming individuality. A warm summer evening breeze seems to be made for Jasmin et Cigarette and to play around the nose of the wearer and his friends.

How smoke and Indolian white-flowered plants can be summarised as a combination in a nutshell: Damn sexy and totally wearable! So just give him a chance, and that is of course also addressed to all ladies!

Retro club fragrance
Pulsating jasmine, cooled with smoke or ash. It's bold. The cigarettes don't bother even former smokers, it needs more imagination and more cigarette. But all in all there is a lounge or party note that I like. Anything but smooth, the jasmine blossom pulses and moves like a stroboscope. I'm sure it's a fantastic club smell. Even if or just because nobody smokes there today anymore.
Androgyn? Attractive, anyway.

David Bowie "John, I'm only dancing"
would be the perfect song accompanying the way this smells on me. I get the hazy cigarettes and jasmine part, the Greta Garbo inspiration more than a masculine scent experience (The way this smells on my skin it could not have worked on a man), but surrounded by it is an amusement park- the tonka bean plays it up I guess, being quite prominent on me. A discrete smell of machinery (Making my mind drift to carousels :)) and those almost ridiculously over-sized lollipops with swirls of bright color. Quite sweet. Quite familiar. It's been a while since I visited, but i bet Tivoli in Copenhagen smells just like this.

"Long cool woman in a black dress"
I have tested this so many times I might as well have purchased a bottle by now. There is a dryness from the hay or the cedar, a very slight crisp paper smell. But I think the cigarette smell is mainly olfactory hallucination. What I get is jasmine, jasmine and more jasmine. It's a lovely green, cool jasmine....not just the blossoms but the entire tree, leaves and branches and all. This feels aloof and intellectual to me. I like wearing it when I need to feel superior because there is something about it that says "I know what I'm doing. You just shut up, watch and learn."

Just What it Says.
The name says it all. What you smell is jasmine and tobacco, but what takes you there is interesting. The jasmine is clean and a bit green, not particularly indolic, and is reinforced by a light cedar. I take the tobacco note to be tobacco with coumarin, giving a hay-like scent. These 3 elements give the same honeyed gorgeousness of the fresh, moist Dutch blonde cigarette tobacco used to roll your own. It made me want to take up smoking again. I know the ‘cigarette’ in this fragrance is often said to be more of a pipe or that the tobacco is smoke, but I definitely see it as freshly packaged, unsmoked blonde cigarette tobacco. The jasmine and the tobacco hold together quite well and do a fairly linear dance with each other through the drydown. Linear works here as you catch different parts of the elements coming together in different ways all the time: jasmine and cedar, tobacco and tonka, jasmine and hay, but usually simply jasmin et cigarette.

Intense musky jasmine with more jasmine and no cigarette for me unfortunately. Safe and nowhere near as daring as its name would suggest.

I smell the jasmine, but also something animalistic and earthy. Definitely unique and unusual ... but not in a good and enjoyable way.

No doubt, a beautifully constructed jasmine. A work of art more so than a daily perfume. Wear with caution newbies.

Smells of a freshly-used ash tray coated in a feminine baby powder. Moderate longevity and projection. Overall very underwhelming.
