Description
The new fragrance by Molton Brown is a fresh floral Blossoming Honeysuckle & White Tea, inspired by the beauty of Sichuan goddess Semo. The composition is created by perfumer Shyamala Maisondieu: “Blossoming Honeysuckle & White Tea is a truly sensual fragrance that includes timeless innocence of white flowers with a rare elegance of white tea.”
The fragrance opens with refreshing and zesty notes of bergamot and mandarin, leading to the delicate floral heart of silky honeysuckle, jasmine and white tea leaf. Sandalwood, warm and creamy heliotrope and vanilla are in the perfume’s base.
“Legend has it that the Sichuan goddess Semo was presented with a magical mirror by a love-struck mountain deity. While admiring herself, it slipped from her hands, shattering to create 114 lakes. Mirror Lake was the most beautiful of them all – still and pure as white tea; floating, delicate petals of jasmine and overhanging trees adorned with
unfurled honeysuckle blossoms.”
It is available as 50 ml Eau de Toilette with accompanying collection.
Blossoming Honeysuckle & White Tea was launched in 2015.

This reminds me so much of Ormonde Woman by Ormonde Jayne!
Same dry down on my skin with great longevity.

Super sweet honeysuckle. After the first 10ish minutes I smell a hint of quite fresh tea in the background. Really alluring and lasts för 8-10 hours on me.

This is a pretty scent. It is definitely dominated by jasmine and woods with the citrus notes very brief on the opening. The honeysuckle and tea is present but just not quite as strong as the jasmine and woods. This combination of notes keeps making me think of the commonplace no 1 Chinese beverage jasmine tea.
For a humble edt it has decent sillage and longevity. This is perfect for warm weather day. Lovely in the summertime.

Honeysuckle is one of my favourite notes. There isn’t much of it in here, still there is something that makes toy wanna wear this. Oh, wait.
It is the nostalgic whiff of Samsara! OMG, didn’t see that coming. This is Samsara without the fizz and the “older lady” feel.
“Samsara for everyday wear by the Body Shop” if that makes any sense;)
