Renee Jasmine opens with a crisp burst of mandarin orange and bergamot before settling into a dense floral core. While the name highlights jasmine, tuberose and ylang-ylang take center stage on skin, creating a rich white floral bouquet accented by sweet Cassia.

It sits between a traditional sunny floral and a grounded resinous base, making it suitable for warm spring afternoons and casual day wear.
