Mirabilis 60 by L'Artisan Parfumeur is a soft, intimate musky-amber fragrance with earthy and woody tones, featuring prominent ambroxan that gives it a slightly synthetic, metallic-velvet base. The scent unfolds with a light, almost airy white musk accented by earthy sweetness, evoking damp soil, warm incense, and a whisper of vanilla. It lacks bold projection and sillage, making it well-suited for night wear or minimalist personal scent rituals. The fragrance develops pleasantly over time, shifting into a more resolved sweet musk with subtle frangrance notes—particularly from frankincense and olibanum—which add spiritual and contemplative depth. One consistent observation across users is its low sillage and moderate longevity, which are seen as both strengths (intimate wear) and limitations (insufficient projection). Its composition is coherent and smooth, but some find it too linear or overly reliant on ambroxan—an ingredient that may feel metallic or chemically sharp to sensitive noses. Overall, it’s most appreciated by those seeking a comforting, gentle, skin-scent that feels quietly elegant and introspective in colder months, especially when paired with wool or cashmere.
