“The worlds of fragrance and opera were brought together for three nights in March 2019 when The Royal Opera House Muscat, Oman, asked Roja Dove to capture the essence of their new world premiere production of Lakmé.” This is maybe my most delicate, subtle and ethereal scent which I own. It’s fragile and innocent. It’s sensitive and elegant. So amazingly beautiful! 😌 Lakmé is a bouquet of fresh, soft and warm roses. 🌹 It shines in all kind of weather but I love it most when it’s warm enough. Lakmé is the pure quiet luxury. 💎 It opens up with sparkling aldehydes and indulgent Rose de Mai and Taif Rose shines from the beginning until the end. The concoction remains quite simple yet enchanting and fresh. Woody and powdery base of Sandalwood and Orris with Musk creates a soft bed for the roses. Is it redundant if you have Turandot? Absolutely not! ✨ Turandot is more complex potent bouquet of many other flowers together with roses and Lakmé is more a rose scent. ✨ Turandot is Chypre and Lakmé is powdery, velvety floral scent. ✨ Despite those stories behind , Turandot is a scent for the queen and Lakmé is a scent for the princess. 👑 Top Notes: Aldehydes*, Citrus Notes Heart Notes: Lily of the Valley, Rose de Mai*, Rose Taif, Magnolia, Peach Base Notes: Pink Pepper, Cypriol, Casmir Wood, Sandalwood*, Aoud, Benzoin, Vanilla, Orris*, Frankincense*, Labdanum, Ambergris, Musk *being the main notes Thank you for reading and if you want to follow me on IG: @ninamariah_perfumes
