Billed as a powdery woody-floral, China White is one of the more compelling releases by Nasomatto.
The composition possesses an earthy accord that could either be vetiver or patchouli. One can also detect iris, musk and an ashy note that's distinctly of the dry lavender variety. Based on this, it's much closer in nature to a woody-fougère than a sweet woody-floral (even though its powdery properties are clearly evident). As a result, it comes across as more unisex than feminine.
China White is very much in the same category as Silver Musk – a composition with clean and slightly metallic undertones. But, once again, its longevity is disappointing for a parfum extrait and it fails to convince one of its apparent true worth (which is rather overvalued, to say the least).
