The market for Jasmine runs from body mist to otto extrait.
Chanel, Guerlain and niche counters share a family and disagree on dose.
Houses
- Chanel — Grasse jasmine contracts and No. 5.
- Jean Patou — Joy’s jasmine ledger.
- Guerlain — Samsara and older extras.
- Serge Lutens — A La Nuit.
- Tom Ford — Jasmin Rouge and Private Blend whites.
- Firmenich — Hedione as infrastructure.
Price bands
- Hedione eau — Designer freshness; little absolute.
- Designer jasmine EDP — Benzyl acetate + some abs.
- Niche sambac — Night portraits, Lutens-weight.
- Grasse-load extrait — Chanel / Patou economic descendants.
Trends
- Transparent jasmine — Hedione HC and tea.
- Named fields — Partner-farm branding.
- Sambac attar chic — Indian night in European niche.
- Low-indole office — Jasmine without mothballs.
Stats
- Night chemistry — Indole and esters rise after dusk.
- Hedione ubiquity — Present in a huge share of post-1970 launches.
- Grasse volumes — Tiny versus Egyptian absolute tonnage.
- Two species rule — Most briefs specify grandiflorum or sambac, not “jasmine”.
Price is not quality; it is harvest, IFRA and a story about Jasmine.
