First Jasmin de Chine by Van Cleef & Arpels was launched in 2004 and crafted by perfumer Evelyne Boulanger. This floral aldehyde fragrance opens with a bright burst of bergamot and black currant, giving way to the rich heart of jasmine, tuberose, and ylang-ylang. The base notes of musk, vanilla, vetiver, sandalwood, and cedar add warmth and depth, creating an intricate blend of white florals and green freshness. This fragrance is a perfect embodiment of Van Cleef & Arpels' commitment to elegance and sophistication.

Application Tips
Apply two sprays to pulse points for a warm, long-lasting presence. The white floral notes are most prominent in the first hour but gradually blend into a richer musk and vanilla base that lingers close to the skin.
