Latte Mimosa
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
A masterful blend of sandalwood and jasmine, it's both elegant and enduring - a signature scent for cooler months.
This mimosa bomb is a proper 'love it or hate it' affair. Many find it sunshine in a bottle, a vibrant yellow floral that lasts ages. Others think it's a dated, dusty mess without a drop of the promised 'latte'. A divisive, loud floral, definitely sample first.

Samsara's luxurious and elegant profile makes it suitable for formal occasions and dates, while its rich projection may be a bit much for office or sport settings.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its potent floral character and strong projection make it less suitable for shared office spaces, although some find it office-friendly after the initial blast. The rich, luxurious floral profile lends itself well to formal events and dates, while its inherent 'sunshine' quality could work casually on a crisp spring day.
