Osmanthus

by Geza Schoen

Ormonde Jayne Osmanthus is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Geza Schoen. The fragrance opens with Pimiento, Pomelo, and Artemisia, settles into a heart of Osmanthus, Jasmine, and Water Lily, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Vetiver, Musk, and Cedar.

Our verdict on Osmanthus: Favourite

This one's a divisive freshie. While many adore its sparkling, uplifting fruit-floral character, plenty of others reckon it's a generic, overpriced shampoo or men's shower gel. Try before you buy, as skin chemistry is a big factor here.

About

Ormonde Jayne's Osmanthus bursts open with a bright, zingy hit of pomelo, spiced subtly by pimiento, before settling into a luminous heart of osmanthus, gentle jasmine, and light water lily. The dry down introduces a sophisticated but soft musk, vetiver, and cedar, creating a clean, airy, and slightly woody finish.
