Jasmine Perfume

Jasmine perfume splits into two flowers. Jasminum grandiflorum is the fuller, fruitier absolute of Grasse and Egypt; Jasminum sambac is smaller, greener and sharper, picked at night because the flower releases most of its indole after dark. Indole is the molecule that makes a real jasmine smell animal rather than pretty, and it is what most commercial jasmine perfumes scrub out.

Nuit Elastique is the Premiere Peau jasmine perfume, a 20 percent extrait de parfum by Ugo Charron and the winner of the Art and Olfaction Awards 2026 in the independent category. Sambac and grandiflorum are pushed past indole into a latex accord and salted with black olive. It is a jasmine that refuses to behave.

  • Jasmine · NUIT ELASTIQUE: sambac and grandiflorum past indole, latex, black olive

What is the difference between jasmine sambac and jasmine grandiflorum?

Grandiflorum is fuller and fruitier, the absolute of Grasse and Egypt; sambac is greener and sharper, picked at night when the flower releases most of its indole.

Why does some jasmine perfume smell animal?

Indole. Real jasmine absolute contains it naturally, and it is what separates a living jasmine from a soapy one. Nuit Elastique pushes the flower past indole into latex and black olive.

Did Nuit Elastique win an award?

Yes. Nuit Elastique by Ugo Charron won the Art and Olfaction Awards 2026 in the independent category.
