Description
Misia opens with a delicate, almost ethereal aldehydic lift, quickly introducing a vibrant, powdery floral heart. It evokes the nostalgic scent of vintage makeup, with prominent notes of violet and iris creating a soft, cosmetic powder accord. As it settles, the fragrance warms into a comforting base of tonka bean and benzoin, lending a subtle sweetness and resinous depth that feels both elegant and inviting. This scent beautifully captures the spirit of Misia Sert, Coco Chanel's confidante, recalling the glamorous atmosphere of opera dressing rooms filled with bouquets and the sophisticated aroma of lipstick.
