How does Maison Asrar Night in Paris smell?
Repetition is the first thing to notice. Lily of the valley and rose appear in both the top and the heart, and musk joins them in the heart, so the floral idea is stated and then restated rather than developed. Lily of the valley is a clean, dewy, green-white flower, rose is soft and slightly sweet, and musk adds a smooth, skin-like layer. Overall this is a clean, fresh floral of rose and lily of the valley.
In the base, Ambery, moss and musk take over. Ambery adds a gentle resinous warmth, moss a damp, green, earthy dryness that sets off the clean flowers, and musk returns once more. The floral should go from dewy and bright to soft, mossy and warm without much change in between. With so few notes, the effect is likely to be tidy and simple rather than complex.
