Many thanks for the recommendations. Glad to see some of my favourite jasmine perfumes (eg, Chanel No 5, Nahema, Joy and Trayee) featured. I almost laughed out loud when you brought out A La Nuit – Luca Turin described it as “Death by jasmine” in his review! For some reason or other, Jasmin & Cigarette always reminds me of Pink Martini’s retro, tongue-in-cheek hit single, “Sympathique”.
Thanks for writing, Michael. I’ll have to check out that song.
