It's intensely sweet! At the same time it is powerfully floral with a topnote of limited duration. The fade out is more pleasant, softer, slightly spicy and more balsamic-floral.

This tropical tree grows up to 65 feet with large flowers that can be pink, mauve, or yellow. The yellow flowers are considered best for the finest oils. The flowers are spread on the beds of newly wed couples to help them overcome their post nuptial anxiety.

The flowers are even more simple, yet more complex and just as intoxicating as the oil. The locals cure them in coconut oil that they use to nourish and rejuvenate their skin.

This complex aroma ads a sensual and cooling quality when blended with rosewood, jasmine, vetiver, bergamot, mimosa, peru balsam, or rose.
