Musk sits in the core of Banana Republic Malachite Perfume rather than the drydown, and it changes everything, water hyacinth, green mango and peony offering the top a sharp, green character, the unripe mango delivering a tart bitterness most fruit notes avoid entirely. Tuberose, green leaves and musk build a core where a creamy white flower sits against something clean and skin like. Sandalwood, amber and pepper finish it warm and dry, the pepper adding a final sharpness.
Nine materials, and the green mango is the one people remember. Bringing musk forward means the fragrance smells intimate from the middle onward rather than only at the drydown. Banana Republic Malachite Perfume belongs to easy, pretty daytime moments, a floral green Eau de Parfum through and through.
Comfortable, dependable and unmistakably Banana Republic, Banana Republic Malachite Perfume wears exactly as promised.
