Muguet Blanc. Van Cleef & Arpels.



Perfumer: Antoine Maisondieu.

Countains lemon, green notes, neroli, lilial, pear, peony, jasmine, vetiver, white musk, white cedar and amber.

"Muguet Blanc" explores with the lilial, a molecule that represent lily of the valley in a softer electric nuance, a new lily of the valley, (note that I adore) in a clean, ozonic, very cold, delicate, lightl, green and pure way.
It forms part of the painfully expensive "Collection extraordinaire".

"M.B" opens clean, slightly citrusy and green, so crisp yet airy that could be a very well blended air freshener. It is clean. So clean.
This version of Muguet is the best I have ever tried. Exactly the same as the fab "Soda" from Comme des Garçons. Glorious perfection.

The floral bouquet is frosty, fragile but intense and powerful at the same time. It really amazes me the extreme coldness of the whole formula and its airy, ozonic undertone.

The drydown remains clean with musk and transparent woods.

This fragrance is intense but in a transparent- chemical way.
It's wonderfully heady and it will surround you beautifully but lifeless.
It represented to me scented images of a chemical icy softener industrial scent as the air after the rain in a garden.
