With the first spritz of On the Nose Perfumes Solar Flair, I felt a rush of a sun-drenched morning as the world woke around me. I get an exhilarating citrus burst of cedrat, yuzu, and red mandarin—a cosmic explosion that mirrors the intensity of a solar flare. Imagine standing on the edge of a brilliant dawn, where the sky transforms into a watercolor of oranges and yellows, and each note vibrates with an electric energy. Solar Flair is an awakening of my spirit after a winter that refused to leave. The top notes invigorate me with clarity and purpose. I feel the energy rushing through me, brightening my path.

As the citrus begins to soften, Solar Flair exposes its heart—a haven of spicy ylang ylang, jasmine sambac, and sweet magnolia. This floral melody resonates with the sacredness of nature, inviting me to connect with my essence. I visualize myself walking through a metaphysical zen garden, each bloom vibrating with the energy of the life-giving warmth and light of the sun. The spicy ylang ylang envelops you, while the jasmine sambac opens your heart to the beauty of connection. The  gorgeous white florals whisper secrets of joy and gratitude, urging me to appreciate the moment. The coconut note adds a creamy gentleness, grounding me as I rise to meet my highest self.

As Solar Flair begins to settle and alchemically blend with the other notes, it encloses me in its divine afterglow, an armor of calmness that radiates from within. The musk and sandalwood create a sacred space, anchoring me. As I stroll through the early morning dawn, the soft glow of the rising sun illuminates my path, and I reflect on the moment. The woody, sensual sandalwood reminds me of how deeply connected I am to the world. Then, the handmade Tahitian vanilla tincture serves as a sweet reminder that life is full of beauty and abundance.  A scented recognize the divine in the ordinary, the ordinary in the sacred, and to celebrate the light within me.

    I like the way this fragrance was described as a garden in the morning. The sun rays representing orange and yellow citrus. The warmth of the sun and garden represent white florals. Then what really piqued my interest is the coconut note vanilla and woods being the the grounding reflection. I am very excited about the notes in this fragrance. The warm bright morning paints a beautiful picture of Solar Flair. Im really into the different ways coconut is used in fragrances. Im excited to try this. Im from Pennsylvania US
