Frederic Malle Music for a While Eau de Parfum

Frederic Malle's Music for a While Eau de Parfum is disarming and perplexing. How so? Lavender with pineapple? Yet, this is an incredibly harmonious blend, where opposites attract like magnets. It embodies a beautiful lavender field basked in bright sunlight. It's an aristocratic melody emanating from an old Parisian apartment. The perfume plays with the mind. It captures the soul and compels you to listen over and over to the waves of aromatic notes, releasing first the proud, cool lavender, then the bright, juicy, and sweet pineapple, and finally spreading into the earthy chords of patchouli. Unusual, original, mesmerizing.

The melody begins with notes of sweet pineapple framed by citrusy bergamot, lemon, and mandarin. At the heart of the composition, beautiful fresh lavender takes a solo. In the final chords, sweet vanilla notes with labdanum and earthy patchouli are heard.
