Design

Paul Sebastian Design—dated? Absolutely. Iconic? Also yes. This is the quintessential white floral powerhouse of the mid-1980s, unapologetically bold and proudly old-school, and honestly, that’s the charm. A lush bouquet of tuberose, jasmine, orange blossom, and peach explodes right out of the gate, followed by an over-the-top floral heart of gardenia, honeysuckle, carnation, lilac, ylang-ylang, and rose. It all settles into a musky, slightly animalic base with sandalwood, civet, and a touch of black currant. One spray is more than enough—this one enters the room before you do and expects respect. Fragrance Notes: Top notes are Tuberose, Jasmine, Orange Blossom and Peach; middle notes are Gardenia, Honeysuckle, Carnation, Lilac, Ylang-Ylang and Rose; base notes are Musk, Civet, Sandalwood and Black Currant.
