One of the most comforting and irresistible smells is that of fragrant basmati rice simmering. Champaca from the Indus Valley, in its olfactory context is combined with notes of rice. Notes of green tea and bamboo from China give it an exotic and abstract quality.
Apply fragrance to clean skin after showering, targeting pulse points such as wrists and behind the neck for optimal scent diffusion. Use a non-scented moisturizer first to prolong fragrance life. Avoid direct application on clothes and sensitive skin to prevent irritation and preserve the integrity of the scent.
