![]() I would wear it anywhere without embarrassment. It's easy to wear, and it's not stupid or childish. Like nearly everything from Estée Lauder, it's terrifically well done, and again like nearly everything from Estée Lauder, the lasting power is tremendous, even from 1 spray, which, I might add, was all I needed - Estée Lauder generally gives you your money's worth. Verdict: Modern Muse is pleasant, even extremely pleasant. There is plenty of clean musk - I have seen some complaints about the musk, but I did not find it overdone. The patchouli is a vague remembrance of something that might have once been patchouli in the wild - really, all that remains is a touch of darkness - the vanilla is subtle, the woods are polished to a velvety finish. Like the early stages, it's been smoothed over to within an inch of its life. Sleek Woods describes the dry down as well as anything else. The jasmine is dewy and diffusive but not particularly sparkling after the first 5 seconds, and jasmine-phobes need not fear, there's nothing even slightly indolic or heady about the floral notes used here (the whole list: mandarin, tuberose, lily, honeysuckle, dewy petals, jasmine, patchouli, vanilla, amber wood and musk) indeed the whole thing is soft enough that while you may notice other flowers (especially the honeysuckle and tuberose) nothing will overwhelm. Yes, there are flowers, and yes, the jasmine is the most noticeable, but it's an intensely smoothed over sort of jasmine, and Modern Muse as a whole did not seem to develop in any startlingly different way from any other modern perfume. The fragrance is also supposed to have an innovative “dual-impression” structure featuring a Sparkling Jasmine Accord and a Sleek Woods Accord, 3 but as so often happens, the innovation was pretty much lost on me. She is memorable, a force of creative energy, a true inspiration to others. She is an independent spirit who possesses a natural magnetism that draws people in, inspires them with her smile, and speaks to them without saying a word. She is the heroine of her own life, always following her own instinct. Here's the brand's description of the Modern Muse woman:Ī Modern Muse is strong and confident, enhanced by her own intrinsic femininity and individual style. ![]() In order to enhance the longevity of the fragrance, apply a neutral or matching body lotion beforehand.I was surprised to learn that the newly released Modern Muse was Estée Lauder's "most comprehensive women’s scent statement since the 2003 launch of Beyond Paradise" - I would have thought 2008's Sensuous was a pretty comprehensive scent statement? 1 Regardless, it is true that the house does not release pillar fragrances at any great rate, and a new one is always welcome. Then, allow for the fragrance to dry without rubbing.
