Lofty All Over Spray Maios — a Fragrant Mist from 2023
Lofty All Over Spray is a feminine fragrance by the French perfume house Maios. It was released in 2023 and comes in the form of a fragrant mist.
The composition belongs to the floral and woody fragrance families, combining an airy floral accord with an expressive woody base that gradually deepens.
This perfume was created for those who enjoy noticeable fragrances with a distinct character.
Despite its lightweight spray format, Lofty All Over Spray has a very powerful sillage: the composition is clearly perceptible around the wearer and leaves a memorable fragrant impression.
The Fragrance Pyramid and Its Development
The top notes open with a fresh citrus accord of bergamot and mandarin, joined by cool, slightly powdery violet.
This opening is bright, clean and energetic, quickly drawing attention.
In the heart of the composition, violet continues in a softer, more floral direction.
Lily of the valley adds transparent white-floral freshness, while carnation brings a spicy nuance, making the scent more intriguing, rich and expressive.
The base unfolds with greater warmth and depth: patchouli creates a rich earthy-woody backdrop, sandalwood adds creamy softness, and vetiver contributes a dry, refined bitterness.
As a result, the finish does not get lost behind the floral notes and retains a confident, long-lasting character.
Character and Wearability
Lofty All Over Spray will appeal to women who enjoy floral fragrances with a woody foundation, a citrus opening and a noticeable presence in the air.
It combines freshness, powdery tenderness, spicy expressiveness and dry woody depth.
The fragrance can be worn during the day, on walks, for meetings and on special occasions when you want to emphasize your individuality.
In warm weather, the citrus notes and lily of the valley sound especially lively, while in cooler conditions, patchouli, sandalwood and vetiver become more pronounced and comforting.
No precise recommendations for the number of sprays to apply to skin or clothing have been provided for this release.
Given its very powerful sillage, it is best to start with a small amount of spray, assessing how it develops on the skin and how intense it remains throughout the day.
