Mauboussin Une Histoire de Femme Sensuelle is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Karine Dubreuil-Sereni. Une Histoire de Femme Sensuelle opens with Praline, settles into a heart of Rose and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Musk. Mauboussin's Une Histoire de Femme Sensuelle carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a seriously divisive cheapie that evokes strong reactions. For some, it's a creamy, musky, powdery dream. For others, it's a synthetic mess, or merely glorified baby wipes or Nivea cream. Don't blind buy unless you're a devoted fan of sweet, powdery musks - and even then, prepare for a potential surprise.

About

Une Histoire de Femme Sensuelle opens with a rich, almost buttery praline, quickly softened by a delicate floral heart of rose and freesia. This gourmand sweetness then melts into a substantial cloud of warm, clean musk and a prominent powdery accord, often described as akin to high-end lotion or even baby powder. It's lactonic and creamy, creating a 'second skin' feeling throughout its development.
