Notes & Structure
Here are the official notes and how the scent tends to evolve:
| Stage | Notes | What You’ll Smell / Feel |
|---|---|---|
| Top (Opening) | Bergamot, Orange Blossom, Black Currant | A fresh, bright intro: citrus from bergamot, sweet‑floral orange blossom, with a hint of juicy fruitiness from black currant. It’s vibrant and clean. |
| Heart / Middle | Tuberose, Jasmine, Marigold (Tagetes) | The floral bouquet emerges: tuberose gives a creamy, bold white floral; jasmine adds brightness; marigold/tagetes may bring a slightly green / golden floral undertone. |
| Base / Dry‑down | Vanilla, White Musk, Cedarwood, Patchouli | Warmth and comfort: vanilla softens things; white musk gives a smooth finish; cedarwood + patchouli add depth and woodiness to balance out the florals. |
Scent Character & Vibe
-
Overall Style: Emaan is very much in the white floral domain — bold florals, sweet fruit notes, but with a warm & woody base to anchor things. It leans more elegant and polished than raw or smoky.
-
Mood / Feel: Feminine, “floral glamour.” It has freshness, sophistication, some sweetness, and a creamy warmth. It’s not intended to be aggressively loud (though the florals are quite prominent), but it does project.
-
When & Where It Works Best:
-
Spring / Summer: the citrus + florals make it suitable for warmer weather.
-
Daytime events, outings, or anytime you want a floral, elegant fragrance.
-
Also evening wear possible, especially when you want something that’s floral but still has enough body (vanilla‐musk) to feel more plush.
-
Strengths & Potential Drawbacks
Strengths:
-
Nice layering: the transition from citrusy floral into creamy, sweeter woods & vanilla is generally smooth.
-
Great value: many reviews say it gives much of what more expensive white floral perfumes do, but at a more affordable price.
-
The white floral heart (tuberose + jasmine) is strong and satisfying for lovers of that fragrance family.
-
Decent longevity and good performance, especially on clothes.
Things Some People Might Not Like / Be Aware Of:
-
The florals are quite dominant; if you dislike bold tuberose or heavy white florals, this may feel a bit much.
-
Sweetness: the base’s vanilla + musk can make it sweeter, which in very hot weather could lean heavy or cloying.
-
Peel‑off projection: some people find the opening very bright / sharp, especially the citrus & black currant. It may settle down, but the first few minutes are noticeable.
