I’m obsessed with this one. It’s feminine without being fruity or sweet and it’s masculine enough to make me feel like a boss lady. Recommend! Many people are saying it’s a bit bold so beware if you don’t like strong scents

It was a bit too much for me, gave me a bit of a headache

Really like the scent. Nice and soft.

Overpowering, kind of generic

It's fine but just not my favorite perfume. It's a little strong and musky.

This a very nice smell, it smells like a 36yr old, working mom, who is still rocking out ripped jeans when not at work. Lol!

I love the smell!

One of my favs!

It smelled good not my favorite though

Smells amazing

I loved this perfume. It smells great and lasts all day on my skin. It comes off strong at first, but it really melts into the skin after a little wear. A little goes a long way.

GREAT Not an Old Lady Perfume but for the More Modern, Mature Woman.

floral fresh and clean ready to take on the world

Love it, This has been my staple fragrance since the 1st sample

I have always loved this scent. I'm so glad they have it. Floral and sexy. Not too mature. I love it all year round, but some might prefer it for colder months. Unfortunately when I was transferring my new vile to the case I dropped it and it shattered. I'm devastated.

When I smelled this one, I just knew it was my scent. I love floral yet classy scent it gives. This is on my que quite regularly. I love to wear it to gatherings. I'm always complimented on this one too.

Its a very pleasant and fresh smell. Absolutely love it.

This is my favorite fragrance, light, but seductive!

Love it!!

Yum

Reminds me of my grandmother

As a long time user of Estee Lauder products, Modern Muse lives up to my expectations. This fragrance is bold and definitely modern, yet has a clean softness that lasts throughout the day. It transitions well from day wear to night. Light enough for the office, but sexy enough for a date. Definitely great for everyday.

This is my absolute favorite, fresh, clean, beautiful smell ever!!!

I really like the way this smells in the first 30 minutes of wearing it, but it wears off too quickly and has very little sillage.

The scent reminded me of a much older woman which didn't complement my body chemistry.

Love the scent but it has that Estee Lauder smell, so doesn't seem my style.

Loved loved loved

I love this perfume, and I received so many compliments! It’s soft, elegant, without being overbearing and the fragrance lasts all day.

doesn't smell like it should.

Great

Its ok

It's very elegant and sexy at the same time.

Delicious- I can’t spray enough! I turn myself on! LOL

i didnt care for the scent...not bad, but not for me

I don’t like the smell

Didn’t like it at all! Horrible. I threw it away.

I enjoy the pleasing soft floral layers with a touch of citrusy sweetness and an end note of patchouli. The only thing I would change, is to take the musk element of the fragrance down a notch or two. That would take it to a whole new level.

I think the scent was to bleh and potent and it has a sour foul after smell

As someone who prefers white flowers & citrus, I enjoy Modern Muse. The touch of vanilla warms the fresh notes beautifully, while still having a sophisticated scent rather than being too 'sweet'

I liked this fragrance although it was strong.It is very womanly yet sweet undertones.Smelled a little like my grandma and strong but a few minutes later the sweet undertones came through.I used a smaller amount the next time I tried it and it was much better.So basically it can be overpowering if you tend to overdue it like me 🤭 less is more with this scent.If you don’t like stronger scents then this one is not for you.

This scent lacked the depth and complexity one has come to expect from Estee Lauder. The overwhelming smell of jasmine drowned out any hint of vanilla, tuberose, musk or honeysuckle the fragrance claims to possess. And jasmine is a scent I like in very extreme moderation. The best thing I can say about Modern Muse is that it'd be a safe office perfume for a mature woman. And that's not much of a compliment. Will be giving this one away.

Really disliked this one. I actually threw it away because I thought it smelled that bad. Very musky and old lady like.

It stinks.

Too musky

I was so disappointed with this fragrance. The blend / combination of the scents in this perfume did not compliment each other at all..... it was overpowering and nauseas. I felt like I was a walking "PigPen" (from the Charlie Brown comics) in a big cloud of stinky dust! I reeked !!!!I & just wanted to wash it off!!! This might be okay for someone else's chemistry but most certainly, not mine! A fine perfume is one that is not overpowering, it's one that should not even be smelled by the wearer/(the user), herself., once it has dried,on your skin,. In fact, the wearer might forget she even has perfume on until someone reminds her of how good she smells. 💁🏻‍♀️ I so wanted to like Modern Muse... wishful of finally finding a suitable & satisfying substitute for my (now hard to find), Spellbound by Estée Lauder, which I wore for over 15 years; it became my signature scent I absolutely loved it! And I received hundreds, hundreds of compliments from both men and women; sometimes they would follow me, even chase me out to my car to find out the name of my perfume. I would hear...... your perfume smells wonderful, divine, entrancing, hypnotic, delicious, sexy, ravishing, sensuous, heavenly, enticingly erotic ...... Upon telling them the name, Spellbound, their response.... that it is! Very aptly named I'll keep searching.

I really enjoyed this scent. After working 9 hours I thought that the scent was gone because I couldnt smell it anymore, it was quite the opposite. I didnt put on alot just a couple of sprays is all I used and it could still be smelled 12 hours later. I love this scent.

Meh

I listened to an amazing podcast about Estee Launder (Great Women of Business, highly recommend) so I had to try one of her scents. Unfortunately this scent reminded me of something more along the lines of a scent my grandmother might wear. Very floral, sort of old school, almost a powdery smell. No offense at all! Just not my style as a 29 year old, with all so respect.

Love love love !

Very musky. Reminds me of a grandmother's perfume. Very strong. I like light floral and clean scents so this was not for me at all.

Estee Lauder has done it again with this gorgeous perfume. It's perfect for today's world.

I love this fragrance! I got so many compliments and women wanted to know the name of it. I even had to write it down for one lady and explain how Scentbird works for her and how to subscribe! It's a scent that isn't too overpowering and I would wear it everyday and to special occasions. It didn't last as long as I would have liked it to. But I'm the kind of person who loves to hear "wow you smell good". This fragrance is true to the Estee Lauder name. I'm a huge fan.

I really love this scent it immediately reminded me of a friend from work so now I have to ask if this is what she wears. But I feel like the scent doesn’t last very long that’s why I took away one star. It is a floral but musky scent. More of a grown up/classy scent.

The scent reminds me of cemetery flowers

ScentBird recommended this based on my love of Tommy Hilfiger Dreaming. The scent is fine and I will wear it occasionally, but it's a bit too musky to be comparable to Dreaming. Gave 3 stars because of the mismatched recommendation for me.

well balanced and lux

This is my all time favorite perfume ever. It's a sweet but sexy smell so you it doesn't feel like a little girls perfume. I get so many compliments and everyone loves this smell

Was not a fan of this one. It is very strong and feels better fit for fall or winter.

Smells just like Gucci Bloom by Gucci and Ginger Lily from Dame Perfumery.

Esteé Lauder fragrances have been a favorite option in my family going back to my early childhood, so I know previous scents such as Beautiful & variations of White Linen very well. Still, I was, at first, a bit hesitant to purchase a new perfume WITHOUT having tested it on my own skin in person. But Esteé Lauder has yet to disappoint my nose's palette, and Modern Muse is NO EXCEPTION!! It is a perfect balance of ALL its elements - from the Jasmine to the Musk and Tuberose, and everything in between!! It's a classy, yet exhilarating fragrance that I feel would be a great addition to EVERYONE'S fragrance collection!!

This is great scent for feeling sexy all day. It’s strong but not over powering. And has great scent notes. One of my favorite perfumes.

Clean and fresh! It’s so lovely!

This scent is just a classic scent.

Perfecto!!!

Love this fragrance!

Love this for daily use

Love this scent, but doesn’t have the best lasting power.

I like most of Estee Lauders scents and this was no exception.

No offense to people who like this but yuck it smell like an old musty attic. That’s never a good smell ick. I wouldn’t recommend this to anybody p u.

Wow. This fragrance is the best. Super sexy and modern. Very elegant and lasting. I found myself spraying it on whenever I had a chance. Very best scent I’ve tried yet. Will be buying a full bottle

I love it

I thought this would smell bit more musky and less like a deep rose mature scent. It’s okay overall.

I love this perfume but the staying power is lacking.

Smells clean and classy. It lasts all day at work.

I Love this fragrance!!! It smells AMAZING 😉

I just feel so incredibly when I use his scent. It has elegance and class, its dominant just perfect

Love it!!!!

I love the smell

My favorite, always get compliments.

I was truly surprised how much I liked this. Some of the reviews said it was sorta a grandma fragrance. But I found it wonderful. It fades as usual, but it fades to a very nice scent that lasted for hours. 5 stars for this muse!

Love this scent as much as modern muse la rouge!!! It's clean and grown up everyday scent that last forever! I enjoy both scents of modern muse!!! Super happy I decided to try these scents!!

The smell lasts all day. It could be a winter or summer perfume.

I really love the smell of Modern Muse...It has a very nice scent... I had smelled it before on a coworker and knew I loved it.

A little too sweet for my taste...but a nice scent

I adore this. Had a sample from a magazine. I will never look back!

Great fragrance!! Every time I wear this I get so many compliments. It's a bit strong, so if you're sensitive to smells this isn't for you. I would recommend this fragrance for the fall/winter months.

Very floral. Thought it would be overbearing at first, but faded a little quickly and was very pleasant. Loved the peony scent. Lasted all day long.

Strong in beginning but fades to a soft scent

I felt like I mixed my grandmother's white diamond with floral scent and chose to wear it.... I tried it a few times and couldn't adapt to liking it

Floral and not overbearing for my allergies. A soft powdery scent that i can use everyday to work and stays on into late meetings

I mean usually not one for floral notes, and expected this one to Ben too flowerry and dainty for me...I couldn’t have been more wrong. This is now my new FAVORITE!

It smells so amazing and fresh! Almost like spring!

This is my favorite scent!! Not too strong and stays for a long time.

I love this perfume and always get compliments. It's one of my favorite!

Long lasting scent. Very floral

Very nice powdery scent with a hint of musk. Very grown up.

Very mature.

Exactly as the title says.

Overall, I like it. It does smell like its itended for the older population but its a nice soft scent.

This is totally my scent. Love it.

I LOVE the smell of this and it has exceeded the fragrance choice of all my others. It only gets 3 stars because it just doesn't last. I feel like i should reapply every hour.

very mature but something about it I love!

The smell was good one of my favorites

Maybe for an older woman

This scent is nice for everyday wear if you want to stand out in the crowd or for an evening out. Its fresh and sophisticated in a youthful way.

The perfume smelled really got lots of compliments but it was a bit too strong this will definitely be my night wear perfume.

This fragrance is just the right amount of floral & lasts longer than most on me! Happy I tried it.

Amazing Love It!!!

It smells very good but more of an older woman scent, elegant, and strong. The longer you wear it the lighter it smells but the smell after it settles in is very nice. I will try spraying from a far and see how that helps but i put it in my lotion with no scent and it was perfect!!!!

I've already owned this and when it showed up as part of ScentBird, I had to have it again. It is a beautiful, strong, lasting scent that will never go out of style.

A scent for older women

I have been trying to find the perfect “mature” scent while still being girly. This is it!

I absolutley love this perfume! Its my new favorite! You can smell the floral tones then the musk mixed in is amazing! Defenitley recommend!

Love This scent ! Very elegant and classy..

Right off it’s very perfumy. I like once it’s had time to settle. Doesn’t last long.

Very mature I loveeeeeee it obsessed. I literally cant stop sniffing myself

Will be getting a bottle of this! Love this for those company christmas parties or a fancy dinner with my momma!

When choosing this perfume, I thought it would just be pretty good. This has already become a favorite of mine! It’s a very specific scent so it can be layered but it’s also a great standalone perfume as well.

Totally love this secent.
