Bijan by Bijan is a Oriental Floral fragrance for women. Bijan was launched in 1986. The nose behind this fragrance is Peter Bohm. Top notes are Ylang-Ylang, Orange Blossom, Narcissus, Neroli, Bergamot and Basil; middle notes are Honey, Tuberose, Carnation, Jasmine, Bulgarian Rose, Orris Root and Lily-of-the-Valley; base notes are Benzoin, Sandalwood, Amber, Musk, Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Heliotrope, Oakmoss, Cedar and Patchouli. It opens with Ylang-Ylang, Orange Blossom. The heart moves into Honey, Tuberose. In the dry-down, Benzoin, Sandalwood give it its base. From the way people describe wearing it, this comes across best as ideal for cold winter nights; a lush oriental; soft amber vanilla drydown. The trade-off is that it may feel sweeter and heavier than some people expect; heavy and not for everyone; newer versions lack original vintage depth depending on taste and setting. Taken toge

Le Numero Cinq by Molyneux opens with a crisp burst of fizzy aldehydes, tart bergamot, and sweet sun-warmed peach. As it settles onto the skin, earthy orris root emerges alongside spicy carnation and dark, stewed plum.

It smells like a classic antique library lined with dried flowers, spiced pomanders, and aged cedar shelves.

Lace of Heaven by Ladanika makes a quiet first impression that slowly shifts into something far more interesting on the skin. It opens with a bright burst of apricot and neroli, backed by a cool, damp green note that keeps the fruit from feeling syrupy. Within twenty minutes, the white florals take over. The tuberose and gardenia here feel soft rather than loud, floating over a base of powdery violet and warm sandalwood. It is a comforting scent, best suited for cool spring mornings or quiet afternoons at home. We recommend starting with a sample bottle to see how the lactonic peach accord reacts with your skin chemistry before buying.
