The story behind the bottle.
Poudre d'Or by Mizensir was launched in 2018 and crafted by the esteemed perfumer Alberto Morillas, known for his ability to blend complexity with elegance. This Oriental Floral fragrance opens with a powdery tiare flower and jasmine, creating an initial impression of softness and sweetness. The heart is anchored by iris and violet, adding depth and an almost ethereal quality. As it settles into the base notes of musk, vanilla, and sandalwood, Poudre d'Or evolves into a warm embrace that feels both luxurious and comforting.
Apply this fragrance directly to pulse points for best effect — it blooms over time, so a light application allows you to experience its full evolution. It's especially suited for cooler evenings when its warm base notes are more noticeable.
