Our verdict on Sarrasins: Acquired

Sarrasins isn't just a jasmine; it's a divisive, dark floral masterpiece. You'll either swoon at its 'howling velvet' indoles and animalic depth or recoil from what some call 'stable boy' musk and 'poo smell'. This is art, and like all true art, it's not for everyone.

Given its strong projection and powerful, unconventional floral and musky accords, Sarrasins is far too bold for the office or casual daytime wear. It truly shines for date nights and formal evening events, where its mysterious and sensual character can make a lasting impression.

About

Imagine night-blooming jasmine, but turned up to eleven. Sarrasins unfolds with a potent, intensely indolic jasmine that’s both narcotic and raw, underpinned by a subtle spiciness from carnation. As it settles, a deep, slightly dirty musk emerges, giving it an earthy, sensual foundation. It's a rich, dense floral with hints of something wild and unforgettable.
