Pleasant white floral

Moringa smells more like a *honeyed* floral than a floral with honey, that is to say, the flower itself has honey tones but this doesn't smell like honey is an actual note contained here. That being said, it also has jasmine-y tones as well. It's a different floral than anything else in my collection, and it's difficult to describe exactly. It's nice, not super elevated, but tasteful and minimalistic. This stays quite linear.

It's very fresh and smells classically floral in a clean, spa-like way. I've had some products in this scent for while, and it's easy to keep them around. This is so easy just to wear when you're overwhelmed and crave simplicity, which is why I like TBS products in general depending on how I feel.

Holiday scent

I just bought a 30 ml bottle right before I went to Türkiye and gonna finish this one. In general, I am not a big fan of perfumes accompanying lotions or scrubs but in this case I couldn't resist.
The scrub is one of my favourites with an incredibly strong scent that is lasting for hours, close to skin and described as creamy, sweet, cozy and very pleasant.
What works for a scrub or body butter might not work for a perfume. Kind of makes sense. A good scrub is rubbed into your skin, lotion on your skin, both melting in your natural odeur while a perfume takes some time to really "melt in".
Considering the poor longevity of this perfume it is first quite strong and then almost disappearing.
Maybe I somehow hoped this could be a cheaper replacement for the scrub, that, used regularly, costs a fortune. But no. I got tons of compliments for the scrub while the perfume is ignored. Maybe it is about the freshness. The scrub is going heavy on the creamy flower while the perfume seems to start more watery if you are not totally overdoing it.
Not a bad thing, but no crowdpleaser either.
Doesn't harm to test or buy it though :)

Simple and Lovely

Ah moringa.... My sister has an older formulation in the yellow bottle and I have their vegan formulation in the clear bottle.

The older formula is a beautiful creamy white floral scent that fades gracefully in a few hours. The newer formula is still a beautiful white floral scent, but less rich and more sharp? I guess? It also doesn't last very long compared to the older one. Even though I have my own I still sneak spritzes of my sister's version when I can. If you grew up around jasmine and other white florals like me, I think you would really like this.

Summery little scent for in between.

To be honest, I didn't know until today that there is a Moringa tree, nor that its flowers smell so wonderful. ;)
If I hadn't wandered into a Body Shop today, I probably still wouldn't know. Who knows, maybe I would have stumbled upon it here at Parfumo, through the fragrance note directory... but by then, I would have definitely missed something!

I have never smelled Moringa flowers before and must say, they smell delightful. Not typically white-flowered, not typically floral. More... fruity. With a touch of delicate floral notes.
As if this is a blend of Tiare, Carambola, and a hint of Neroli.
That's about how this scent can be put into words... ;)

It's nothing special; the scent remains constant, nothing changes.
Longevity is rather mediocre; on me, the Moringa lasted about 4.5 hours.
Sillage is somewhere between mediocre and low, as it is quite close to the body.

However, this suits me personally, especially now with these summery temperatures, where I really only want to wear subtle, sometimes even fleeting scents.

EDIT., 7.5.:
For those who prefer it very subtle - there is also a Body Spray from the same line in addition to the EdT. I must admit that I find this even nicer at temperatures >25 degrees, as it is more refreshing than the EdT. :)
I am really glad to have bought both. :)

Moringa alias Tuberose

The Moringa tree is also referred to as the horseradish tree according to search engine information, because its roots smell sharp and burning like horseradish.

Well, the roots are certainly not processed here, that much is certain!

Instead, it seems that the white flowers of the tree were taken as a scent model.
However, one must say for two reasons that this was only a very rough direction that was intended here, because on the one hand, the original Moringa flower smells violet-like - and you don't find that scent here at all, and on the other... I will get to that shortly.

This morning, I applied the Moringa scent again.
I like its initially honey-like sweetness, and the delicious floral quality it exudes.

After about one or two hours (distracted by work!), I noticed a vague tuberose scent at the edge of my perception, and I was surprised, because I initially didn't think that I could be the source, as I hadn't used any tuberose scent in the last two weeks - but after sniffing my wrist, it became crystal clear:
Here, it’s tuberosing, and quite intensely and distinctly!

It's funny that although I have known and liked the Moringa scent for some time, I would never have guessed that tuberose is present here before my time on Parfumo, as I wasn't consciously familiar with the scent note.
However, I have now encountered quite a few tuberose powerhouses, and I know exactly what I'm dealing with, and there is no mistake: This is not a violet-like smelling Moringa flower, this is definitely a tuberose, also known as night-blooming jasmine!

This brings me back to the fact that with this scent, Moringa flowers could only have been a rather vague model. It's not a big deal, but I think the name is a bit misleading.
I still like it very much, and I will continue to wear it from time to time in the future, but: The night-blooming jasmine can be a bit overwhelming in its intensity and richness. I think I need a little break from Moringa alias Tuberose! ;)
