Modern Muse Chic

Which Should You Buy?
A truly iconic tuberose that became a signature for many, Michael Kors' Michael is mourned by its loyal fanbase after its discontinuation. It's a powerhouse white floral, divisive for some, but a 'tuberose masterpiece' for its devotees, with 'nuclear staying power'.
A divisive floral woody musk that either strikes you as a sophisticated, versatile crowd-pleaser or a screechy, old-fashioned scrubber. If you loved the original Modern Muse and fancy something with more depth, it's worth a sniff, but proceed with caution.
