"Honour Woman is a dramatic white-floral Eau de Parfum launched in 2011. Its opening combines pepper, rhubarb, and coriander for a spicy, green, slightly tart introduction. The heart becomes lush and expressive, blending gardenia, tuberose, jasmine, lily-of-the-valley, and carnation. Amber, frankincense, opoponax, vetiver, and leather create a smoky, resinous, earthy foundation. The composition balances luminous floral richness with darker incense and leather facets rather than leaning toward sweetness. Inspired by the tragedy of Madame Butterfly, it has an elegant, theatrical, and sophisticated character."

Reviews Summary

“Honour Woman is generally experienced as a luxurious, powerful white-floral fragrance. The opening is peppery, tart, and slightly green before moving into a rich heart led by tuberose, jasmine, and gardenia. The drydown becomes resinous, powdery, incense-like, and faintly leathery, with strong projection and long wear. Some wearers find the incense and resin more supportive than dominant, while others emphasize the composition's complexity and polished floral character.”
