Jasmin Rouge €206/50ml, Brown Thomas and Arnotts

Jasmin Rouge is a classic at Ford, first created in 2011 and muchloved ever since. An amber floral, the scent is best described as a sensual, spicy floral fragrance that is perfect for this time of year. The red glass denotes its passionate blend that includes notes of cinnamon, ginger, black and white pepper married with the florals of sambac jasmine, neroli, ylang ylang, and clary sage. The dry down is a mix of Mexican vanilla, leather, wood and amber notes, and the entire structure of the scent is voluptuous and bold. Jasmin Rouge is so popular at Tom Ford that earlier this year it had a make-up collection dedicated to it. Described as ‘smouldering’, the Body Heat eye quad had sultry smoky shades and two accompanying lip colours came in bold red and wine, all in specially designed red lacquer casing in homage to the passionate fragrance.
