Parfums de Nicolai – Number One

Perfume: Number One
House: Parfums de Nicolai
Source: Luckyscent
Size: 1mL

Luckyscent Notes: Egyptian jasmine, Indian tuberose, orange blossom absolute, cassis, rose, iris

Date: 11/5/08 Weather: 55 degrees, rainy

Comments: Starts with a dusty tuberose note. A hint of saliva in the top. Would be suffocating if sprayed. Soon, jasmine and orange blossom appear to smooth everything out and turn it into a lovely creamy floral. Very strong. A drop on each wrist and I can easily smell it. Definitely wouldn’t want to wear much more than that. Becomes a creamy white floral – heavy on the jasmine. There is a jammy note underneath the flowers as well. Gone in less than 5 hours – shocking considering its initial strength.

Date: 4/6/09 Weather: 60 degrees, drizzly

Comments: Big ol’ hairspray top – in “green jasmine”. Hangs here for 20 minutes or so. Dusty, indolic green jasmine 20 – 60 minutes. Finally smooths out into a creamy floral (dominantly white floral) laced with vanilla. Still gone in only 5 hours. Beautiful once it gets past the initial blast.
