Green Tea with Jasmine at Grandma's
Freshly brewed green tea with jasmine. The expensive, good variety that becomes slightly bitter if steeped too long. Fresh, clear, jasmine with green notes. This is how Fleur Diamantine opens.
On the paper test strip, it develops quite differently than on the skin. On paper, it remains clear, always with a fresh note and dominant jasmine.
On the skin, however, a few more facets emerge. Generally, the jasmine is in the foreground, and the clear, green notes at the beginning have something very young, fresh, and, as I said, somehow evoke an association with green tea for me.
After about half an hour, the scent is only close to the skin for me; the jasmine now lies a bit softer, almost powdery over the other notes, which are not clearly distinguishable. Minimal mint freshness, but overall the scent becomes much darker, heavier, and also somewhat more mature. Now it suits less to young people than to the slightly melancholic aura in Grandma's living room. Not bad, still a beautiful scent, but much less sprightly.
However, the combination of jasmine and neroli is still intriguing; the light orange note comes through again and is held by mossy, deeper notes.
The saffron is a mystery to me; I don't really perceive it anywhere in the scent progression.
Overall, I would describe Fleur Diamantine as unisex with a feminine note, although it would also suit a well-groomed man (terrible cliché, but think George Clooney, gray-haired, suit, casually chic) quite well. I miss a bit of depth in this scent; the freshness at the beginning is fantastic, but afterwards, it tends to fade.
