About

Modern Muse Nuit opens with a subtle fruity lilt from redcurrant leaf and mandarin, quickly softening into a heart of gentle chamomile and creamy heliotrope. The real magic unfolds as it settles into a deep, luxurious base of boozy vanilla, rich tonka, and warm amber, underpinned by smooth sandalwood and a refined, non-earthy patchouli. It's a sweet, subtly smoky oriental with intriguing depth.
