Hyper-realism in perfumery
If you are a fan of multi-dimensional compositions and hyper-realism in perfumes, when you can see the smallest details of dew on the leaves or a very single vein of the petal , this is the fragrance for you.

Despite the name, which seems to be a soliflor, this fragrance contains much more than just beautiful jasmine: it also features lilies of the valley, lilacs, tulips, a bloom of trees, floral pollen, fleshy green stems, an after-rain dew - it is like #spring in a garden full of blooming plants and young greenery. And, It is simply gorgeous!

A Work of Art
A beautiful heady white floral that has a hothouse feel to it. Humid, green, earthy, lightly indolic, lightly sweet, yet not heavy like Gardenia or Tuberose, but just as intoxicating. On first spray it felt as if I just stepped inside a hothouse filled with flowering plants, or off a plane and onto a tropical paradise. It gave me that same warm, lush feeling of being flooded with the scent of nature and flowers in the air. In a strange way, this almost feels as if I am not wearing a perfume at all, but rather am covered in actual blooms. That's how realistic the flowers are here. It's very apparent some masterful blending occurred to make this floral smell so dynamically real, and also clear no expense spared by the quality. This is niche in every sense of the word, but especially as a work of art. And I consider this a work of art at the highest level. Absolutely unique and devastatingly beautiful. This is a 10 all around in my book.

Photorealistic portrait of a stemmy, green jasmine plant
Grandiflora Madagascan Jasmine by Michel Roudnitska for the florists 'Grandiflora' in Australia is a bit of a revelation. It's a jasmine soliflore but instead of taking the more common grandiflora or sambac types as the starting point, it takes the varietal of Stephanotis floribunda, or the so-called Madagascan jasmine. This is the type of jasmine that Australians like to use in their bridal bouquets and headdresses because it performs exceedingly well in conditions of extreme light and heat. In terms of aroma profile, Madagascan jasmine is not as sweet as other varieties and features instead a clear, green stemminess that plays so well against the heady, creamy smell of the waxy petals themselves. In order to best replicate the smell of the plant, Michel Roudnitska was sent a plant of his own, and he studied it over a period of months.

And wow, is the end result beautiful. It is sort of euphoria-inducing, which is embarrassing to say, but the aroma of crushed, watery green stems is true to life in a way that is familiar to me. One whiff of this divine elixir and I could be lying in a meadow with my children, absent-mindedly helping them to snap off dandelion and daffodil stalks. It also has the coolly elegant crispness of freshly cut flowers from a florist - you know, that heavenly, intense scent released by the stems as you chop them down to fit your vase. Here you can smell the dew, the sappy sweetness of plant juice, and the slightly soapier green of the leaves, mixed in with the headier pull of the white flowers themselves.

What is most impressive is the way that Roudnitska has sustained the freshness of the green stem accord while the scent itself cycles through creamy, (slightly) indolic), fruity, and back to creamy. Ít gives you all the advantages of a good jasmine without any of the attending sweetness or bublegummy facets. The green nuance really is handled well - it reads almost like the cool, green watery tone of hyacinth or narcissus without any of their floral or earthy characteristics. For me, this perfume sets the bar on what a soliflore can and should be aiming for - not simply verisimilitude, but the type of wide-bellied beauty that moves you, despite yourself.

Very pretty but not for the soap adverse
I was not a bougie enough bride to afford a stephanotis bouquet even though they were definitely the in thing in the aughts; so unfortunately I don't have first hand experience with the smell of the flower. This has a fresh, green, "headspace" blossom feel to it...so I trust all those that have RL experience with the blossoms in that it smells authentic to the flower (again, DIFFERENT from sambac et; please stop downvoting it if you didn't read the description before you sampled)

It also has impressive longevity on me for this type of floral. That all aside, I get a definite strong "soapy" element in this that is too piercing for me to love it. Definitely only a like and I'm glad I sampled first.

Picture Perfect
Grandiflora does photorealistic flowers right. These ones are lush and white (not just jasmine, despite the name), complete with stems and leaves and a touch of humidity.

There’s a sweet, fleeting fruitiness on top, and a whisper of musk beneath, but at its core this is all about those big heady florals.

It’s a somewhat cleaner and simpler version of my beloved Saskia : while both have gorgeously full, rich flowers, this lacks the slightly grungy edge that I find so appealing and interesting in Saskia.

Projection is on the higher end of moderate, and you’ll get a solid 8+ hours of wear. Technically classified as feminine, but I’d love to smell this on a confident man.

A scent for a PhD-holding, merciless manager who suffers from queen bee syndrome and embraces it. A straightforward fragrance that appeals.

Jasmine that feels natural with green notes. Fresh, vibrant, yet soft. I don’t smell cocoa. A must-try for jasmine lovers.

Fresh jasmine with green notes resting on dark chocolate. Fresh and warm. Becomes more floral and sweeter (honeydew), white flowers remain. Pretty.

5 sec - sweet, lightly citrusy. 2. intense + moderate/bearable animalistic until the end. A green-dry-powdery note emerges over time.
