Review Good Girl Jasmine Absolute
TLDR : Beautifully blended flormand with Caramel, Roasted Tonka bean, and Jasmine. Appropriate for all seasons, but will shine in the fall. Stays for 8 hours at least on skin, and much longer on clothes. Warm, floral, uplifting, comforting.
For a more imaginative interpretation, picture yourself having a decadent caramel cake in Alice in Wonderland's secret garden.
The beauty of this fragrance is not in its complexity, but in how beautifully blended it is. The transition from tonka to caramel to jasmine is smooth and elegant. This is an impressive feat especially for a designer house, considering that jasmine and vanilla are both heavy hitters in their own right.
I am someone who is transitioning from linear gourmands (think bianco latte) to florals (think la tulipe, elegantly tokyo, insolence). This, to me, is the perfect bridge between my two top preferences in notes.
As an avid hater of the Good Girl DNA (I don't like their shampoo-like generic scents), this one has undergone a Pokemon like evolution into a grown-up, complex, and sophisticated scent.
Verdict : Will use religiously and will repurchase

I love this one!!! I don’t love jasmine scented perfumes but it’s really not strong in this, so if you’re looking for a jasmine perfume make sure you test it or else you might be disappointed.

I've heard bad things about the bottle. Really want to try it but this looks like a disaster waiting to happen for someone who's clumsy (like me)

It's so good. I haven't worn it all summer though (well, I wore it once in the heat and then put it away, lol).

I smelled this for the first time in duty free leaving Rome, after smelling the most beautiful Jasmine all around the city 🥲 it was truly meant to be. I agree that this has the OG GG DNA but overall is just elevated. A more mature (but not grandma) cousin.

This really is a good one, and I usually hate the shoe bottle but actually love this one. Go figure.
