Mother x Love

Maison De L'Asie founded by the lovely Elizabeth Liau is a newcomer to the fragrance market recently launching their first instalment- Chapter 01, three unique fragrances inspired by Singapore’s rich cultural history.The house effortlessly blends fine French perfumery with a distinct Asian influence to create something beautifully enchanting. These are fragrances that stay with you long after you have worn them, leaving a memory of the fragrances and the way that it made you feel. Mother x Love, 'A nostalgic ode to the endlessly enveloping feel of a mother’s love’ was the fragrance in the collection that really jumped out at me. Mother x Love opens on the skin as an ethereal cloud of aromatic freshness. A delicate touch of ginger maintains its effervescent qualities as it’s joined by a melange of soft white florals on a base of vanilla and white musks. As the fragrance evolves on the skin the musks rise to the surface where they remain until the end, evoking images of cashmere. The overall feeling conveyed by the fragrance is airy, elegant and comforting. The beauty of Mother x Love is in its polished simplicity that lets the quality of the raw materials shine. It’s a fragrance that I have found myself reaching for more and more lately in recent times of stress. It’s completely unisex, and perfectly versatile. Perfomance on this fragrance is fantastic too. I get all day longevity and a moderate sillage, dropping closer to the skin around the 3 hour mark. IG: Nathan__Jamesj

I can absolutely not describe the fragrance as well as the reviewer below (koxayous), but I will say this is very beautiful. Personally I cannot pinpoint any specific notes, aside from a soft musk (no screechy-ness). Somehow I smell a bit of a rice note with some sandalwood (none of these notes are listed - also not on the official website). I suppose it's just how the actual notes translate on my skin. This smells like what I wanted Musc Moschus to smell like (I find that one really very sweet to the point of too sweet). There is no sweetness here, only softness. It's quite longlasting, but the sillage is very light (as you would expect with this type of scent). It gives me a zen mood. I agree it is very comforting. I very much enjoy wearing this.

Got a sample set from a local perfume store in SF and am really impressed by this house. Longevity is fantastic on this one, and the name apropos. Very clean, soft musc with beautiful vanilla accord that blossoms and dominates the dry down. Like tihota and Narcisco Rodriguez musc had a cuddly baby. A comforting feeling envelops, with the litchi and white flowers (jasmine mostly to my nose) giving this a distinctly feminine feel. The pepper and ginger turn this into not your average musc. A definite smell for anyone looking for a skin/better than you scent.

I WANT THIS SO BAD its just a fresh, comforting smell thats giving like. gentle, sweetie girl vibes. u really smell the lychee but not too overpowering. it dries down perfectly onto skin!!! I need her so bad!!!!

This is a soft and comforting floral musk fragrance to me. It starts out a bit spicy, the bite of the ginger and citrus coming into play. However it instantly warms and softens up with the jasmine and becomes this beautiful, intimate, musky scent. On dry-down it becomes a soapy, warm, soft, jasmine musk with the suede adding this cashmere-like texture that feels welcoming. It balances between being soft and fem with being clean. It's not a scent that I usually go for myself but it's unique and beautiful nonetheless.
