Bali Ha'i

Maison de L'Asie · 2021

Fresh · Floral · Fruity

Maison de L'Asie Bali Ha'i is a unisex fragrance that pairs a fresh, floral character with a sweet, creamy and woody base. It opens with rose, jasmine, coconut and sea breeze together, the flowers lifted by a fresh air and a fruity sweetness. In the heart, vanilla, patchouli and ylang-ylang pull it towards something soft and creamy. Tobacco, cedar and musk in the base balance the sweetness with a woody depth. Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small, so that is a tentative reading. Sweet without turning heavy, it suits men and women who want something fresh and creamy. Esprit Life by Esprit for Women and Parfums d'Elmar Leilani have a close profile.

Bois d'Indonésie

8.4

Maison de L'Asie

Green · Sweet · Gourmand

Maison de L'Asie Bois d'Indonésie is a unisex scent that links the light green freshness of pear, lotus and bamboo to the woody depth of sandalwood, vetiver and oud. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin and still lasts through the day. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine and can be worn by anyone. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It opens with pear, lotus and bamboo in a fresh, green way. In the heart, sandalwood, nutmeg and tea build a soft, creamy woodiness. In the base, vetiver, frankincense, oud and amber settle into a resinous, slightly sweet and powdery warmth. Commodity Gold and Alkemia Bois d'Ambre have a close profile.

Mother x Love

7.3

Maison de L'Asie · 2020

Fresh · Floral · Powdery

Maison de L'Asie Mother x Love is a floral, powdery unisex scent that opens with vanilla, lychee and ginger. Vanilla, lychee and ginger lead the top, while orange blossom, magnolia and jasmine carry the heart. Suede, saffron and musk soften the base. The overall impression is fresh, creamy and powdery. Its longevity is rated good, though few voters have weighed in, so that picture is tentative. The profile is unisex, reading neither clearly masculine nor clearly feminine. Jil Sander Softly and M. Asam Cashmere Pearl have a close profile.

God and Moon

8.3

Maison de L'Asie · 2024

Fresh · Floral · Green

Maison de L'Asie God and Moon is a unisex scent that sets a fresh, green floral character on a sweet, woody, oriental base. It opens with blackcurrant, plum, jasmine, gardenia and Indian tuberose together, so the fruity and floral side leads. In the heart, honey, cardamom, coffee and tonka bean sweeten and warm it. The base of rosewood, cedar and oud adds a woody, earthy depth. Both longevity and sillage are rated good, and most voters score them high, though the number of votes is small, so this impression is not firm. It is unisex. Byredo Casablanca Lily and Jo Malone Wild Fig & Cassis have a close profile.

Les Nuits de Bali

7.5

Maison de L'Asie

Citrus · Floral · Fruity

Maison de L'Asie Les Nuits de Bali is a unisex perfume that sets saffron and patchouli against vanilla, rose and oud, holding sweetness and woodiness together. Saffron and patchouli open on a spicy, earthy note. In the heart, vanilla, rose and amberwood soften the scent, bringing out a creamy, powdery, gourmand sweetness. In the base, oakmoss, oud and sandalwood settle it into a resinous, smoky, woody depth. Citrus and fruity touches stay in the background, keeping the sweetness from turning heavy.

Nanyang

6.7

Maison de L'Asie · 2020

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Maison de L'Asie Nanyang is a unisex fragrance that opens with a fresh, green citrus brightness and settles onto leather and wood. The opening is built on bergamot, lemon and green tea, giving a crisp, slightly bitter, green impression. In the heart, jasmine adds a soft floral touch while saffron brings a spicy warmth. The base is led by leather, musk and sandalwood, so the fresh start gives way to a woody, leathery and faintly animalic ground. It has two sides: bright on top, darker and drier underneath. Dior Cologne Royale and L'Artisan Parfumeur Thé pour un Été have a close profile.
