Description
The golden champaca flower is possibly the most beautiful single floral scent in the world and synonymous with romance – one of Cupids five arrows (Saggita means ‘arrow’) was made from champaca! This Himalayan miracle of soft white blossom mixed with a rich fruit undertow opens with the bright, sherbet fizz of yuzu and bergamot. Then, it gently blends into the champaca oil which unfurls it’s soft apricot edges before growing in intensity, as the heady champaca absolute takes centre stage; its sweetness offset by a dash of bitter vetiver.
A fleshy musk joins the throng which increases the sumptuous lushness of the Saggita fragrance transporting the wearer, an ozonic freshness binding the whole. Saggita was launched in 2014.

This is about magnolia, lily of the valley, chamomile, and champaca. White tropical floral with hints of musk, vetiver, & some jasmines. No civet or that big animalic notes. fair.

I have to give this particular extraordinary extract de Parfum a lot of credit, it’s quite simply the most entirely vivid smelling floral you’re ever likely to smell. If it is largely based on champaca then I will have to reevaluate what I think about that ingredient because I remember disliking Tom Ford’s champaca absolute when that was around. Regardless this is a triumphant and delicate smelling floral, moist, juicy, with almost fruity, green notes and a ozonic and citrus opening. The floral smell is somewhat of a mixture of ylang ylang as jasmine a sort of sweet, white/yellow floral and maybe a touch exotic too. This stuff smells of massively high quality to me and I’ve no doubt there’s some orris, and sandalwood in the base, because when first applied it oozes, heavy multilayered luxury. It’s not very long lasting which is not what you expect from something so concentrated but can often be the case.
