The Body Shop Indian Night Jasmine Review: A Floral Classic

Night-blooming jasmine meets sandalwood in this affordable, feminine floral

Indian Night Jasmine, launched by The Body Shop in 2012, is a tribute to the intoxicating scent of Cestrum nocturnum โ€“ a flower that releases its perfume only after dusk. Created by perfumers Arnaud Winter and Constance Georges-Picot, this fragrance belongs to the brand's 'Indian Night Jasmine' collection, which also includes a perfume oil, eau de toilette, and a lightweight fragrance mist.

At its heart, Indian Night Jasmine is a sweet-floral composition that weaves together white blossoms with a soft, creamy sandalwood base. The opening is bright and green with neroli, freesia, and violet leaf, giving way to a lush bouquet of jasmine, magnolia, and orange blossom. The result is a scent that feels both delicate and opulent, perfect for everyday wear or special evenings.

As with many The Body Shop fragrances, Indian Night Jasmine is positioned at an accessible price point โ€“ typically between $20 and $50 โ€“ and is marketed toward women who appreciate floral, romantic scents with a touch of sweetness. It is still in production and remains a popular choice among budget-conscious fragrance enthusiasts.
