Muse Extrait de Parfum 50ml

Rhubarb, rose, and vanilla with the sweetness kept in check.

Muse opens tart — rhubarb and litchi over bergamot, with nutmeg giving it an early edge. Turkish rose and peony take over quickly, and a thread of incense keeps the florals from turning syrupy. Vanilla, musk and cashmeran finish it soft and slightly powdery.

Sweet, but built properly. It holds its shape for hours instead of collapsing into sugar.
