Frangipani is testament to Linda Pilkington's exquisite taste, because instead of the cream sodden tropicalia you might be expecting based on the name, Frangipani filters the brightly gaudy flower through a very European sensibility. In other words, no sun umbrellas or leis here. The scent itself opens with a bright squeeze of lime, before quickly sliding into a very true to life linden blossom, whose aroma of honey, creamed rice, and green powder forms a logical bridge to the central character of the show, the frangipani.

The frangipani note here is so wonderful that it's been allowed to shine unfettered by too many other notes. The flower itself has a gently milky, nutty tiare like scent that later tips over into the full fat, salted butter of tuberose. But in its first blush, the frangipani displays a rosy peach facet that moistens the heart and gives it a gentle fruitiness.
