Ixia, Freesia (q.v.) and Tritonia (including Montbretia), FIG.

The scent of the Paris Hilton perfume is a blend of frozen apple, peach nectar, freesia, mimosa, jasmine, sandalwood, ylang ylang and oak moss notes.

It begins with a fun, fruity mélange of tropical mango, ruby red grapefruit and wild strawberries before delving into a dramatic heart of black freesia.

Notes of frozen apple, peach nectar and mimosa give the scent its pleasant fruitiness, while muguet (Lily of the Valley), freesia, night-blooming jasmine and tuberose balance the sweetness with a soft floral tinge.

Including notes of red berries, pink peppercorn, bergamot, iris, freesia, lily of the valley, violet, vanilla, white rose, ylang ylang, white woods, sandalwood and skin musk, the scent is not as complex as its vast composition suggests.
