Is this fragrance suitable for office wear?+−
Yes. Its classification as a fresh floral and its moderate sillage make it a popular choice for business and professional settings. It remains clean and pleasant without being intrusive to those around you.
How does the mimosa in the base affect the scent?+−
The mimosa absolute provides a soft, powdery drydown. Rather than making the fragrance smell like "makeup powder," it adds a velvety texture that grounds the citrus and jasmine, giving the scent a more refined and "tender" finish.
Does Tendre Jasmin smell like a "heavy" jasmine?+−
No. By blending Jasminum grandiflorum with lemon and mandarin orange, the perfumers created a version of jasmine that feels green and airy. It avoids the heavy, syrupy sweetness found in many night-blooming jasmine perfumes.
Is this fragrance still in production?+−
Tendre Jasmin was part of the Secrets d'Essences collection which has been largely phased out by Yves Rocher. It can be difficult to find in retail stores and is often sought after on the secondary market by collectors.
