Composition & Character

04 · DossierEdited by Scentsation Editorial

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2015 by Shiseido, Maquillage Dramatic Mood Potion is an Oriental Floral fragrance that embodies the essence of dramatic elegance. The composition begins with a burst of fruity and aromatic notes like pear, apricot, and bergamot, creating a vibrant and lively opening. As it settles, warm spices such as cardamom and saffron add depth and complexity, leading to a heart of white florals including jasmine, osmanthus, and lily-of-the-valley. The base notes of patchouli, sandalwood, and amber provide a rich and sensual finish that leaves a lasting impression.

How to wear it

For best effect, apply this fragrance to pulse points and allow it a few minutes to develop on the skin. The fruity top notes are short-lived but intense, so two sprays will ensure that the heart and base notes shine through as the day progresses.
