Jasmin Imperial opens with a bright splash of neroli and bergamot, giving it a crisp, sunny start before the freesia settles in.

It works best during breezy spring afternoons when you want something clean yet cozy. It is a solid choice for office wear or weekend brunch, and while it stays close to the skin, it is worth a sample if you enjoy soft, resinous jasmine profiles.
