Thanks for another Erin post before Christmas! Thanks, too, for calling out another discontinued Nicolai item that I need to try. You are responsible for the big bottle of N. It is not that easy to get fired around here. I think I have mentioned it before when Mimosa fragrances were discussed. I find it a bit girly for regular wear, though. Later the jasmin appears and become less sweet and a little greener. It was a complex scent and as it usually happens did not sell well.
It will probably be discontnued soon so time to stock up!! I certainly find it easy to find in local Boots and department stores in case anyone is interested! I just saw it on the US and International sites too, and at my local department store, so it seems to be still going. And yet it might still be a good idea to stock up. I would not be surprised to hear that YSL were to pull the plug on it. Is this a perfume thats been reformulated recently or is it still the original one?
Great post, Erin! See here:. Although she has moved the release date up to early Jan. It is an incredibly beautiful and well-done scent. And judging from your post, not a moment too soon with all of the discontinuations! So happy to enable! You must be logged in to post a comment.

Summer is upon us, and the mimosa trees are blooming throughout Tennessee, their sweet fragrance perfuming the valleys and their pink pom-pom blooms lighting up the shorelines of our lakes and rivers. Those blooms coincide with the beginning of summer, so they trigger childhood memories in nostalgic adults who remember playing outside in that magical time when school was out and vacation promised weeks of school-less adventures ahead.
Mimosas, aka Persian silk trees, are celebrated for their exotic looks that appear both tropical and prehistoric -- long, fernlike fronds dangling from elegant, curving limbs that sport those showy, albeit dainty, blooms. Mimosas may grow among other types of trees clustered along roadways and in the wild, yet they always stand out.
But mimosas Albizia julibrissin are also troublemakers. Download the free Knox News mobile app. We save your email and cart so we can send you reminders - don't email me. By browsing our site or closing this message, you agree to store Cookies by us and third-party partners.

On its own it will bring a lot of naturalness to a composition; associated with notes like iris root , violet or carrot seed , they will accentuate its powdery facet. Anisic aldehyde, coumarin, monadenial, heliotropin, benzaldehyde.
It is a flower from the same family as mimosa, the acacia, but there is a difference: you can see thorns on the branches. Like mimosa, it is a rather difficult flower to work with in perfumery.
Its scent is denser and more mysterious than that of mimosa. It has animal notes similar to those of ylang-ylang and also sulphurous effects and metallic accents. This small tree native to India is cultivated around the Mediterranean, mainly in Egypt and in semi-tropical regions. The cassia flower is rare and is rather reserved for fine perfumery. Cassia has a very faceted scent: herbaceous, powdery, spicy , woody , balsamic, honeyed, aniseed or leathery. It also has a hay-like scent.
Cassia blends very well with iris, mimosa and violet notes. You can try them thanks to the Discovery Boxes 5 Eaux de Parfum x 2 ml and rediscover these raw materials as you have never smelled them before.
