Italian niche house Maria Candida Gentile has launched Mimosa, a new powdery green floral fragrance.
A fragrance dedicated to women. It opens with a subtle green vibration, crossed by galbanum, and settles on the skin like a powder that glows in the night.
Mimosa (Acacia dealbata) is a flower typical of the Mediterranean landscape. In Italy, it has been the symbolic flower of March 8 since 1946, chosen for its simple radiance and its generous blooming at the beginning of March.
Maria Candida Gentile Mimosa is available in 7 or 15 ml Eau de Parfum.

Oh, I want to try this, but MCG isn’t readily available in the US anymore. I believe she doesn’t have too high of a purchase threshold to ship for free to the US from Italy, but the last time I looked was pre-tariffs. IndieScents in Canada still has some stock, but they don’t seem to replenish what sells out. There’s a hodgepodge available on perfume.com at discount, but alas, not the one I really want (Barry Lyndon).
I would love it if the 7 ml bottles were here…it is a shame the line isn’t more widely carried.
Powdery notes and galbanum: sounds wonderful to me!
It’s hard to believe it can beat Hanbury (which also has mimosa) but I’d love to try it.
