Organza
Fragrance notes
Character
Organza opens with an odd pairing of nutmeg and gardenia, spice set against a heavy white flower, with African orange flower, green notes and bergamot rounding out a top that stays bright only briefly before fading into something denser.
Tuberose, jasmine and honeysuckle take over from there, thick and slightly animalic, with iris and peony softening the loudest edges and mace adding a faint, peppery bite underneath the petals.
Vanilla, amber and a trio of woods close it out, warm and slightly powdery, giving the whole composition a soft, resinous finish that lingers well after the florals fade. This is a full, old-school white floral, dense rather than airy, and anyone who finds tuberose overwhelming in small doses should expect that feeling here too. It settles in for a long stretch once applied and projects with a noticeable presence, so a light hand suits it better than a heavy one.
Fall and winter air give the woods and vanilla room to show, and evenings suit it more naturally than a bright afternoon does. The tuberose stays central throughout, never fully handing control over to the softer florals around it.
