What does Myth smell like?

It opens with blackcurrant and bergamot for a fruity freshness, softened by ambrette seed. At the heart, jasmine, pink lotus and tiger orchid turn floral, while aquatic and creamy accords run through the whole scent. The base of patchouli, musk and white cedarwood settles it into a powdery, lightly sweet finish.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it leaves a calm, close trail through the day. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and business are the most chosen settings. It reads mostly feminine, though a good number also find it modern. Marc Gebauer Amorist and Xerjoff Elle Anniversary have a close profile.
