Rose Masquat
Melon brings a watery, almost cucumber-like freshness that dominates the opening, its aqueous weight diluting the citrus oils rather than amplifying them.

By the editors · 2 min readMelon brings a watery, almost cucumber-like freshness that dominates the opening, its aqueous weight diluting the citrus oils rather than amplifying them. The heart trades juiciness for a cool, green-floral veil: lily of the valley sharpens the melon’s edges, violet adds a faintly woody dustiness, while saffron threads a dry, hay-like warmth that keeps the composition from turning shampoo-sweet. As the top water fades, sandalwood emerges as a clean, cream-coloured boardwalk, lightly salted by ambergris so the melon never fully evaporates but lingers as a skin-clean musk. Projection stays polite, a one-arm’s-length wash perfect for muggy summer offices or post-gym errands when you want to smell shower-fresh rather than perfumed. Wear time is moderate, collapsing into a soft wood-musk after five hours.
