Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of Asphalt Flower unfolds as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of MAC is clear in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum sets the depth and body this composition needs.

In the top tier you detect petal-airy opening notes: Violet and ylang-ylang. These 2 notes shape an elegant floral wave that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.

When the opening settles you sense Heliotrope and Iris holding a opulent floral direction.

The internal accord map rests on these accords: Balsamic, Floral, Wood and Powdery without random overlap. Secondary accord layers such as Spicy add depth to the backdrop. The gender direction is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.

At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Floral, Whiteflower, Balsamic and Wood. The framework further includes Gourmet. At family level the scent maps to East and Floral.

In summary Asphalt Flower sounds complete from start to finish — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the base secures the trail. These are the fragrances best experienced on skin.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Very high (more than 12 hours)
5
Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage
Very conspicuous
5
Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
