Whitney Houston

Whitney Houston, released in 2022 under the singer's name and marketed for women, is a soft white floral. Floral is how everyone describes it, a good share also find it woody, and a few notice spice, greenness or musk beneath the flowers.

Pink pepper and pear leaf open it, the pepper rosy and lightly spicy, the leaf green, crisp and slightly sappy, so the start feels fresh rather than sweet. Neroli adds a soapy, bitter-orange-blossom brightness, and the heart fills out with gardenia, waxy and creamy, night-blooming jasmine, heady and warm, and ylang-ylang, rich and faintly banana-like, which together make a lush, tropical white bouquet. Orris root cools it with a powdery, slightly earthy softness. The base is cashmere wood and musk, a soft, slightly musky wood and a clean, skin-close finish that keep the scent smooth rather than loud.

It is a scent for evenings and mild weather, for women who like big white flowers with a green opening and a soft, powdery landing.
