Floral

Moroccan jasmine absolute is intensely floral—think walking through a night-blooming garden at dusk, but concentrated and honeyed. It's sweeter and more animalic than delicate white florals; there's a creamy, almost buttery richness underneath the heady floral notes, with hints of indole that give it a slightly spicy, skin-musk quality. It smells expensive, sensual, and slightly intoxicating—less innocent than jasmine sambac, more darkly romantic.

Orange blossom smells like wedding day innocence—delicate, honeyed, and sweetly intoxicating. Imagine stepping into a Mediterranean grove where bitter orange trees are in full bloom: there's a creamy, almost waxy floral sweetness reminiscent of jasmine, but airier and less heady. It carries subtle citrus whispers (the ghost of orange peel) beneath layers of creamy butter and almond milk. There's something both ethereal and sensual about it—less heavy than gardenia, more refined than rose, with a green, slightly bitter edge that keeps it from being cloying.
