What does Muse smell like?

The top opens with white blossoms, leather and plum, while the heart brings labdanum, davana and jasmine. In the base, raspberry, benzoin, patchouli and amber sweeten and soften the whole. The overall impression is floral and fruity, with a leathery, spicy warmth underneath.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind, and it is mostly worn for nights out and evenings. Half of the voters read its character as feminine, though it is presented as unisex. The Dua Brand Owner of Destiny and Byredo Bibliothèque (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
