Osmanthus

This floral material has shifted from obscurity to mainstream in the last few years. The flowers look a little like jasmine, and the scent is gentle but insistent. Think freshness, a suggestion of green tea, but also moving towards soft, honeyed fruitiness. Often used to help conjure the idea of apricots and other soft summer fruits like nectarines. And indispensable in scents which seek to have a hazy, skin-like quality. Smell it in…. Liquid Light.
