Saffron James has launched Nani, the fourth in their collection of fragrances inspired by Hawaii:
NANI (na-knee): Beauty, glory, splendor. 2. Beautiful flower. 3. Good thing. 4. A fragrance created in honor of Hawaii's last crowned Princess Kaiulani. 5. Also a olfactory homage to Pikake flower. 6. A stunning scent with a note of Pikake, Pink Flamaria, Mimosa, Lily, and Ylang Ylang.
Saffron James Nani is $110 for 30 ml, concentration unknown (but the others in the line are all Eau de Parfum). It can be found now at Apothia.

I wonder if they meant Plumeria – I looked up Flamaria and got some sci-fi character created by some kid.
I'm a sucker for tropicals – I'll have to look into this line.
I was wondering what on earth flamaria was — bet you're right!
It's sounds beautiful. I hope, I hope it doesn't smell anything like SJP Covet Bloom.

Do you know where a sample is going to be?
I have heard that this is beautiful. Pikake is the jasmine known as jasminium sambac. I learned recently that it is the same jasmine used in Alien (!). I'm sure it's in many other fragrances, too. In Hawai'i (my home state) the pikake lei is one of the most prized. I'm a fan of the Saffron James line – I own and wear the other three fragrances regularly. So I know I will have to get this one. Dang, though – it's expensive for 30 ml!

Wow, you bought all 3? Pretty bottles, I must say!
Beautyhabit, once they get it in stock.
LOL!
Yes, I had to get them all. They are all really well done, IMO, and they remind me of home!
I bought the fragrance from APOTHIA and it is gorgeous! And the blog is actually a typo – the box reads “Pink Plumeria.” So no secrets there! If you like tropicals you will absolutely adore this – it is so sophisticated.
Congrats on your purchase & glad you love it!
