Catherine
Catherine by Masque Milano is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with rhubarb, violet leaf and cut grass, moves into sambac jasmine and tuberose and dries down to sandalwood, cashmeran, musk and vetiver. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Rhubarb Tart, pink and green at once. Sour fruit with a stalky edge.
- Violet Leaf Crisp, watery green with a metallic edge. Cool rather than fresh.
- Cut Grass Exactly what it says. Sharp, wet and nostalgic.
Heart
- Sambac Jasmine Greener, more tea-like jasmine. Less indolic than grandiflorum.
- Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
