Description Champaca is a tiny pale orange flower from India. It is related to the magnolia and regarded as sacred throughout the Indus Valley. This fragrance blends champaca absolute with neroli and bamboo and underscores the delicate raw material with notes of fragrant rice and green tea. This is a distinguished perfume of rare beauty.

James ★★★★★

The basmati rice note sounded odd to me until I actually wore it — now it's the soft, warm thing that lingers after the champaca fades. Lasts a solid six hours on my skin without ever getting loud.

Claire ★★★★★

I've never smelled anything quite like the basmati rice note in this — it's soft and almost creamy, but the green tea keeps it from getting heavy. Wore it to a spring wedding and got three compliments before dinner.
