Is Jasmin 17 a very heavy or "old-fashioned" floral?+−
No, it leans much more toward the "floral fresh" category. Thanks to the bitter orange and citrus notes, it avoids the heavy, cloying weight often associated with traditional jasmine perfumes, making it feel modern and crisp.
How does this fragrance perform in terms of longevity?+−
Most users find it has solid staying power for a fresh scent, often lasting around six hours or more. While it isn't an aggressive projector, it creates a consistent personal aura that remains detectable throughout a standard day.
Is this scent suitable for the office?+−
Yes, it is frequently cited as an excellent choice for business and daily wear. Its clean, soapy jasmine and neroli profile is professional and refreshing rather than intrusive.
Can this be worn by men, even though it is marketed for women?+−
While classified for women, many in the community find the citrus and woody base (sandalwood and musk) gives it a gender-neutral appeal typical of the Le Labo aesthetic, particularly for those who enjoy fresh, green florals.
