Max Mara Max Mara is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2004. Max Mara opens with Citrus and Ginger, settles into a heart of Musk, Magnolia, Lily, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Sugar Cane. Max Mara's Max Mara carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a real hidden gem for those who crave a unique, sophisticated sweetness. While some find the fleeting top notes a let-down, many are campaigning for its return due to its distinctive charm. It's a soft, sparkling paradox that offers grown-up gourmand appeal.

About

Imagine a sparkling opening of bright citrus and spicy ginger, akin to a fizzy gourmet lemonade. This effervescent start gracefully transitions into a creamy floral heart where magnolia and lily entwine with a clean musk. The drydown settles into the comforting embrace of sugar cane, a subtle, elegant sweetness that's inviting without being cloying, leaving a warm and subtly spiced aura.
