Earl Grey for her

I like jasmine scents.
In contrast to amber-heavy fragrances, which like to respond to my skin chemistry with a little ammonia-heavy stabbing, jasmine fragrances develop gently and sometimes more or less flowery.
So "Tendre Jasmin" by YR was a signature scent from me for a long time. But the flowery and also haunting Sillage I had over sometime.
Well, unlike the much worn and much more flowery "Tendre Jasmine" in the past, I rarely use the almost bitter-looking "Éclat Éternel" - when I want the slight bitterness of this fragrance, this note after a freshly opened pack of Earl Grey tea.

The eternal shine doesn't give itself on my skin long with time to reveal the heart note - very quickly bergamot and jasmine become one, the grapefruit probably adds some bitterness, while the tuberose reminds of ylang-ylang scented oils.
The woods seem to contribute to the scent of this slightly muted aroma of black tea, while the vanilla seems to be responsible for the warmth and light powderiness of the scent.
I feel the Sillage with tender dosage as close to the body and that makes this smell straight also in the summer a very good-smelling companion
"Éclat Éternel" is an adult jasmine fragrance for me. Without much oriental opulence - more the clean, minimalist interpretation for modern city dwellers.
