Oriflame Muse is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2011, created by Christian Vermorel. Muse opens with Green Notes, Bergamot, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Rose, Violet, and Lilac, and dries down to a base of Virginia Cedarwood, Musk, and Sandalwood. Oriflame's Muse carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This Oriflame offering is a pretty, if somewhat understated, floral that splits opinion. Some find it a soft, gentle spring bloom, while others are put off by a perceived sharpness or lack of presence.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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

Muse opens with a burst of crisp green notes and a hint of zesty bergamot, uplifted by a subtle kick of pink pepper. This fresh introduction soon blossoms into a heart dominated by delicate violet, classic rose, and a touch of sweet lilac. The fragrance settles into a comforting base of creamy sandalwood, earthy Virginia cedarwood, and a clean, soft musk, providing a gentle woody foundation.
