Muddled Plum

Scored this for almost nothing, brand new in the box, and just tested it yesterday. It's heavy, rich, and opulent, reminds me of these juice extracts that we mixed with sparkling water back home. It smells like plums mixed with violets, booze and sugar. Even though it's marked unisex, I struggled smelling it on my husband and he struggled with it too. I think Muddled Plum is more appropriate for a woman due to the heavy opulence it exudes. It's easier to accept such a perfumey cloud emanating from a woman than from a really masculine man, which is why I struggle with this being marketed as unisex. Very unique and heavy; I agree with the rest of the reviews - not recommended to be worn in extreme heat. I think it will be amazing come wintertime.

Opens with a blast of jammy plum, fizzy orange and elegant saffron. The booziness takes over in a modern, stylish way and the green notes from the davana are an inspired addition. The fragance is more on the level of Angel's Share, rather than Jazz Club for instance. Muddled Plum is an unfairly overlooked gem and compares well to any niche boozy fragrance. Fantastic.

Very similar to Plum Japonaise, but a little fruitier and less heavy. I find PJ to be a bit cloying, especially when using more than two sprays. This is a warm, boozy fragrance. The plum is very prominent, more so that PJ. The dry down is fantastic with the saffron and sandalwood coming out. Great cozy date scent. I believe this is discontinued unfortunately.

Gorgeous! I bought the cream and fragrance. I love the plummy smell and definitely a winter one for me. Reminiscent of Pomegranate Noir but much more wearable in my opinion. Warm, spicey, addictive and wearable. Any of you who dislike, I'll gladly take it off your hands!

This is full wearing of Molton Brown Muddled Plum, a 2018 release (the house’s winter release that year, I believe) that I blind bought recently since it was heavily on sale, I love plum fragrances, and it has a very good reputation. It’s definitely a very agreeable plum fragrance—I get plum, resins, and woods, mostly, quite sweet with floral and almost boozy touches (perhaps via the resins) yet fairly balanced if not dazzling. It’s a mostly- gourmand, I’d say, with some vaguely spicy touches in the background to complement the resinous side, overall hinting a sort of plum pudding with caramel side but still landing closer to a mainstream perfume than a full-on gourmand usually would, so it achieves a nice middle ground in that respect. Its regular pricing is $120 for 100ml in EDT concentration but is currently on sale for $72, as there is currently a large sale throughout the site that happened around the same time a year ago, I believe, and it seems to be only sold through the Molton Brown website. At its price, I consider it a successful blind buy, particularly for the price, even if it’s not among the best plum fragrances that I’ve tried. 7 out of 10
