mb01
Biehl Parfumkunstwerke

A transparent, smooth and extremely light (yet long lasting) white floral for people who are afraid of everything.

Smells like a man's citrus aftershave on my skin. I think on drier, cooler skin it might smell elegant.

A peppery white floral that smells a lot like Pleasures. I think Pleasures is much cheaper. This scent seems to last for a decent amount of time. Musky drydown. All in all, I think this is more feminine.

Biehl's MB 01 is hands down one of the most beautiful floral perfumes I have ever smelled. It has Mark Buxton's signture light touch and is smell-able only if you get close to the skin which I think makes it a very alluring fragrance. MB 01 is so well blended that it is hard to isolate a particular floral note but I can detect a generous helping of white musk which becomes the dominant note in the drydown, and softens and enhances the fragrance. It should also be said that MB 01 is a "warm" floral in the style of Serge Lutens "Un Lys", but in contrast to a "cold" (but equally beautiful) floral such as Frederic Malle's Lys Mediterranee. Here are the notes, courtesy of The Perfumed Court: jasmine, tuberose, champaca, gardenia, ambergris, musk and sandalwood.
