TAWAF, NEW FRAGRANCE OF THE "ARABIAN SERIE" - Page 2

post #61 of 70
I received my decant of Tawaf yesterday afternoon. I spent the evening and overnight in it, and I'm wearing it again today. I'm in south Florida for a while, and this warm and humid climate suits Tawaf. I got an impression of gardenia at first (there is a gardenia bush growing just outside the door here), that earthy "mushroomy" quality of gardenia, and then I got the rubbery impression. I didn't know that was oppoponox - I was thinking, "tuberose?". I got an impression of jasmine, orange blossom, all white florals that waft in the night's softness of Florida. It's very pretty. It also reminded me of jasmine soaps I once used (maybe by Caswell-Massey? I've forgotten now). It does smell very clean. The florals are lush but not dirty. I have enjoyed wearing this over the past twelve hours or so...the fragrance helped induce a sense of softness and relaxation in my mood, which has been a bit anxious and tense lately, allowing the imagination to wander and feel more aloft, freed for a time from earthbound cares and concerns. Jasmine is celestial in that sense. Another lovely, aromatherapeutic offering from Profumo!

edit: I will post on the front page.

Thanks Profumo! Have had a wonderful time exploring Tawaf and the rest of your line. I also agree with lilybelle about the gardenia note - I am currently growing cape jasmine which is a gardenia species, in my conservatory. It smells very similar to the actual jasmine of Tawaf - fascinating, earthy, fungal aroma

Forfreddie, we all love Jasmine apparently, my own plant covers the fence 30 feets wide. It is a special Italian Jasmine that resists harsh winters. It fills the street with perfume from spring to summer.
