When opposites attract
When a perfume is described as an “exalted floral oxymoron” by its creator, you know you are in for a surprise. White and black, floral and dry—the Bulgari Splendida Jasmin Noir shows that opposites do indeed attract. Sensual Indian sambac jasmine, with its honeyed and slightly citrus scent, is the starting point for this fragrance. Notes such as patchouli, sandalwood and cashmeran add a woody accent. The result? An unexpected sweet, fruity, woody—and heady—mix.
