Osmanthus Absolu

A modern osmanthus tea Eau de Parfum co-created with Skins, balancing peachy brightness, leathery nuance and airy black tea over soft woods and vanilla. Refined, luminous and close to the skin, it brings understated sophistication to everyday wear for any gender.

Scent Development and Character

A luminous osmanthus theme that moves from a soft citrus-spiced opening into a textured heart where leathery facets, tea nuances and peach-like fruitiness intertwine around the floral core. As it settles, gentle woods and a discreet vanilla warmth smooth the composition, keeping the tea accord airy while adding a subtle creamy depth close to the skin.

Who It Is For and When to Wear It

Wears as a refined, close-to-skin osmanthus tea scent with moderate projection, making it suitable for office, casual and smart-casual settings across temperate seasons. The airy texture and balanced sweetness support all-gender wear without becoming heavy or overwhelming. Particularly suited to spring and autumn, with enough warmth for mild winter days and sufficient airiness for cooler summer evenings. Sillage is Estimated to project softly to moderately, mostly remaining close to the wearer and forming an intimate scent aura rather than a strong trail. Longevity is Estimated to offer moderate longevity, typically lasting most of a workday without becoming heavy, in line with a balanced osmanthus tea Eau de Parfum.
