Rather than expressing one dominant fragrance, Dream Fragrance unfolds in delicate layers—orchid, gardenia, warm almond, gentle honey and fleeting fruit notes—creating an experience that feels almost dreamlike. It is this elusive, ever-changing bouquet that gave the cultivar its name.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduced using the traditional Phoenix Dancong method of harvesting and crafting each tree individually, every batch reflects the character of its own tree, season and mountain terroir.
