Mykonos Sansa is a floral-tea extrait de parfum of osmanthus, black tea, peach, rose and tuberose, softened by powdery orris. Mykonos describes it as charming yet dark: the florals dry down into toffee, cedarwood, vetiver and dark chocolate. It is one of our unisex perfumes.
How Mykonos Sansa develops on skin
The opening combines green moss and soft peach with black tea and apricot-like osmanthus, so the first impression is fruity, leafy and slightly smoky. In the heart, rose, tuberose and narcissus bring a creamy floral bouquet, with a touch of toffee underneath. The base of cedarwood, orris root, vetiver and dark chocolate turns the scent deeper and drier, with a powdery edge from the orris. Mykonos sums up the accord as floral, woody and softly spicy.
Longevity, sillage and projection
Mykonos rates Sansa at 9+ hours, with moderate to strong sillage and moderate to strong projection. Its intensity is tagged strong, so two or three sprays are enough for most of the day.
When to wear Sansa, and who it suits
Sansa is tagged for autumn and winter, when the tea, toffee and dark chocolate feel most at home. It works for daily wear as well as evenings and special occasions. Mykonos labels it unisex, for anyone who likes florals with a darker, woody side. In our range, it sits closest to Senja, Satin Blanc and Untamed. Curious about tea in perfume?
