A New Take on Jasmine
For centuries, jasmine has been the queen of white florals—beloved, yet often rendered in heavy, indolic richness that leans decidedly feminine. Jasmine & Yuzu challenges that tradition.
Here, the precious Chinese Jasmine from Guangxi, China—extracted using advanced CO₂ supercritical technology—reveals a purer, more luminous side. This is jasmine stripped of heaviness, left with only its most ethereal qualities: airy, transparent, alive.
The secret lies in the pairing. Yuzu—a rare, water-drenched citrus—cuts through the floral heart with its bittersweet sparkle. Lemon and grapefruit add brightness, while magnolia and Brazilian Gardenia provide soft, green floral accents. The result is a jasmine that feels weightless, modern, and entirely unbound by convention.
