The Story

Launched in 2014, Modern Muse Chic by Estée Lauder is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that embodies the essence of modern elegance. The composition opens with plum and artemisia, creating a subtle contrast between sweetness and herbal freshness. At its heart, jasmine sambac and tuberose weave together to form an intoxicating floral bouquet, while musk, cashmere wood, and patchouli anchor the base with warmth and depth. This fragrance reflects Estée Lauder's enduring commitment to sophisticated beauty and lasting appeal.

Application Tips

Apply Modern Muse Chic in light layers — the plum and artemisia top notes are fleeting but vibrant. Allow it to settle into your skin for about an hour before heading out; this ensures that the rich base notes of musk and cashmere wood come through, providing a lasting warmth.
