Modern Muse

Modern Muse (2013) is a white floral built on jasmine — both Sambac and Chinese — with lily, honeysuckle, and tuberose amplifying the bouquet. The heart also lists flower petals, adding a soft, airy texture. The base is where it gains depth: musk, patchouli and patchouli leaf, amber, Madagascar vanilla, and woody notes create a musky, slightly animalic foundation that keeps the florals from turning sugary. The listed accords — white floral at 100%, floral 50%, musky 47%, woody 44%, animalic 44% — confirm its dual nature: radiant and clean up top, warm and skin-like below.

For collectors, Modern Muse sits between the crispness of Pleasures and the richness of Private Collection Tuberose Gardenia. It suits those who want a polished, office-friendly white floral with enough musk and patchouli to feel grounded. Best in spring and early autumn, daywear, and moderate application. If you enjoy jasmine-forward scents with a woody-musky base, this is a solid, versatile choice.

Modern Muse（2013）以雙重茉莉為核心——桑巴克茉莉與中國茉莉，輔以百合、金銀花與晚香玉，交織出層次豐富的白花香。中調的「花瓣」帶來輕盈空氣感。基調則以麝香、廣藿香與廣藿香葉、琥珀、馬達加斯加香草及木質調收尾，賦予香氣溫暖、略帶動物感的底蘊，避免花香過於甜膩。官方列出的主要香調中，白花佔100%、花香50%、麝香47%、木質44%、動物感44%，印證其雙重性格：前段明亮潔淨，後段親膚沉穩。

對收藏家而言，Modern Muse 介於 Pleasures 的清爽與 Private Collection Tuberose Gardenia 的濃郁之間。適合追求精緻、辦公室友好的白花香，且希望麝香與廣藿香帶來踏實感的人。春季與初秋、日間場合、適量噴灑最為合適。若你鍾情以茉莉為主、帶木質麝香基調的香水，這是實用而百搭的選擇。
