Osmanthus, from Ormonde Jayne was released in 2006. The perfumer behind this creation is Geza Schoen. It has the top notes of Artemisia, Pimento, and Pomelo, middle notes of Jasmine, Osmanthus, and Water Lily, and base notes of Cedarwood, Labdanum, Musk, and Vetiver.
Osmanthus from Ormonde Jayne is a tropical fruity and floral scent which is great for the summer. It utilises the unique note of pomelo at the forefront of the scent, which is reminiscent of grapefruit with a hint of mango, alongside the star of the show which is osmanthus - with its milky apricot accord. From here it has a gentle heart of white florals, namely water lily and jasmine, which are delicate and elegant. There’s a slight spiciness from the pimento as it settles into a musky base of cedar and labdanum. This is a very pleasant fruity floral scent and works really well in the warmer weather, however it’s very gentle and lacks some much needed depth and character. Overall a very pleasant fragrance but not worth the retail price.
