by Calice Becker

Kilian Bamboo Harmony is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Calice Becker. The fragrance opens with Bitter Orange, Neroli, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Tea, Mimosa, Spicy, and Bamboo, and dries down to a base of Fig Leaf, Oakmoss, and Mate.

Our verdict on Bamboo Harmony: Favourite

Bamboo Harmony is a divisive one. Many find this green tea and citrus blend to be a 'zen' spa experience, while a good few others dismiss it as an overpriced, generic freshie with woeful performance. Your mileage (and wallet) may vary.

Formal

Its clean, fresh, and often-described 'inoffensive' nature, coupled with many noting its light projection, makes it an excellent choice for office wear or casual daytime use. While some suggest it for active moments, its relaxed and elegant DNA also lends itself to more refined, albeit not overtly formal, settings like certain date scenarios.

About

Opens with a lively burst of bergamot and bitter orange, tempered by the delicate sweetness of neroli, instantly evoking a bright, clean freshness. The heart soon reveals a prominent green tea accord, bolstered by the unique, earthy bitterness of mate and the subtle, woody nuances of bamboo. A hint of mimosa adds a soft, powdery floral touch, while the base grounds the composition with a green, slightly milky fig leaf and a sophisticated, mossy whisper of oakmoss.
