Spring Jasmine
Shanghai Tang (2015)

This opens as a greenish jasmine with a touch of indole, along with a strong impression of what I perceive as lily of the valley. The projection is good, much better than most of the others in this line, until it all calms down & smooths out around two hours in. I don't sense much progression here, & I don't get the listed olibanum note at all. Four hours in it settles close to the skin, finally fading out after around ten hours.
To be honest this is nothing special, but it does what it says on the tin, & I can see myself enjoying it at work without offending anyone.

Jasmine blended with narcissus and olibanum. Rich, somewhat heavy for awhile. A nuance of honeysuckle underneath. Slightly honeyed and sweet indeed. A bit more sillage than most others by this house, SJ is lively to be sure. I'd swear there is a hint of orange here, too. Not a mind-bending perfume. Lovely by its own right.
