ABOUT

Michelia leaf smells green and aromatic: crisp and dewy with a slightly bitter, tea‑like facet and a faint milky-floral undertone that echoes the magnolia/champaca blossom. In perfumery it is used as a fresh heart note to lend botanical clarity and a natural green lift to white-floral compositions, bridging citrus tops and creamy or woody bases and pairing well with tea, neroli, woods, and soft musks.
