Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Muscara is a Parfum with only two notes listed, iris and ambrette. With so little going on, it is a simple scent rather than an evolving one. Iris brings a cool, powdery, slightly earthy feel, and ambrette adds a soft, musky warmth. Together they make a minimal blend that is about texture rather than a story. If you want a layered pyramid of notes, this is not it. If you like a quiet, clean, skin-like scent, it is worth a try.
