amokslime Report post Posted April 8 My beloved Jasmine Cottage is discontinued! I really respect and appreciate that the lab made that decision. I'm hoping to find a perfume that fills a similar niche in my collection, but I have a suspicion that this might be a scent that's hard to dupe just by looking at the listed notes: Camellia, jasmine, heather, orange blossom, osmanthus, wisteria, thyme, angelica, freesia, granny’s nightcap, and English wildflowers. To me, Jasmine Cottage is a breezy, bright turquoise blue floral. I like wearing it in spring and early summer with a sundress or cotton shirt. I get some Jasmine, some orange Blossom, and then a big loud breezy burst of wildflowers and sunshine. Any thoughts? Share this post Link to post
roseus Report post Posted April 9 Comparing the two in the bottle Visiting the Sumida River with a Geisha is very close with the combo of jasmine and orange blossom - Crystalline azure musk, orange blossom, water lily, hinoki wood, Texas cedar, and night-blooming jasmine. Probably a difficult find if you don't have it already though. I've not tried it but I'm wondering if Who Would Not Tremble, Too? from 2024 Yules would work: sweet orange blossom, white honey, jasmine tea, white sandalwood, green apple, and lily of the valley. I think it would be sweeter but could fill a similar niche if the jasmine is strong enough. Share this post Link to post

Now that you mention it, it seems like it might have some similar aspects. Thank you!! Edited Wednesday at 10:47 PM by amokslime Share this post Link to post
