Absolu de Narcisse

I've been wearing this for three weeks and the green stems-and-petals opening still catches me off guard every morning. The bottle itself is heavier than I expected, feels nice on the dresser.

I was worried the narcissus would turn soapy on my skin, but it stays dry and almost papery in the best way. Wore it to a dinner and caught it on my scarf the next morning, still faintly there.

The narcissus note here is green and slightly waxy rather than sweet, which is exactly what I was hoping for. It wears close to the skin for the first hour and then opens up into something warmer. Easily the most interesting floral I've bought this year.
