Hyacinth Naturelle (Hợp hương)

I layered this accord under a plain unscented lotion and it bloomed into something soft and green within ten minutes. Being a focused accord rather than a full perfume, it stays close to the skin, which is exactly what I wanted for daytime.

Wore this solo on a cold morning and the green, waxy stem quality came through almost immediately, like crushed leaves with a little dew on them. As a focused accord it does exactly what it promises without wandering into soapy territory, which is rare for hyacinth in my experience. Two dabs lasted

I've been layering this hyacinth accord under a plain musk and it blooms into something that smells like a real garden in early spring. As a focused single-note accord it does exactly what it says, and a tiny dab lasts me most of the day.
