How does Maison Asrar Hamsat Hob smell?
Petals lead the way: rose and mandarin blossom start as flowers rather than fruit, with orange adding a juicy, zesty brightness. In the heart, orchid, freesia and peony are all soft, clean and rounded blooms: orchid can be creamy and faintly sweet, freesia fresh and light, and peony airy and watery. The list reads as an almost entirely floral pyramid in which the Fruity label seems to rest on the orange.
Closing it are musk, ebony and vanilla. Ebony is a very dark, dense wood, used in perfumery as a smooth, dry, slightly smoky timber impression, and it should give the flowers a dark floor. Vanilla adds creamy sweetness and musk makes the surface soft and clean, so the finish is likely to be creamy and smooth with just a little dark wood behind it.
