Hello, I've been reading these bloggs for the past few day and just love them… I've tried Jewel and like it; the first Sung fragrance I found I like… Here are the notes… Jewel has top notes of neroli flower, sparkling pear and black currant. The middle notes contain night blooming jasmine, frangipani petals and orange flower. The dry down is warm and luxurious and is composed of nuzzely plum, sheer coconut milk and acacia wood.
Welcome, and glad you like the blog! Haven't managed to smell Jewel yet but it is on my list — although for some reason I very rarely like pear in fragrance.
