BORNTOSTANDOUT Mud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Nathalie Lorson. Mud opens with Milk and Almond, settles into a heart of Dark Chocolate, Rose, and Plum, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Elemi. BORNTOSTANDOUT's Mud carries a Favourite verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This 'Mud' is a perplexing enigma, a soft vanilla-chocolate gourmand that refuses to live up to its name. While many find it pleasant, its disappointing longevity and shy projection leave a lingering sense of unfulfilled potential.

About

Mud opens with a gentle wash of milky almond, quickly deepening into an intriguing heart of dark chocolate, rich plum, and a subtle rose. As it settles, a sweet, creamy vanilla embraces a balsamic elemi and smooth sandalwood, creating a skin-close, comforting finish. This is less about earthy grime and more about a delicate dessert, with a persistent soft warmth throughout.
