From BORNTOSTANDOUT®
“Hazy scent of wet soil amidst the rain. The pouring rain cools off the ground. Water fiercely falls from the edge of the roof, raindrops splash on the grass and the ground turns to mud. The subtle scent of the water, the wet grass and muddy ground permeates the air."
Perfumer
Nathalie Lorson
Notes
almond, milk, chocolate, Turkish rose, plum, amber, elemi, sandalwood, vanilla

Sample Orders
Samples are designed to help you evaluate scents you might want to later purchase as a full bottle. You may order one sample per fragrance, up to 15 total in a single order. Samples are non-refundable.
For sample orders, please check your packing slip for a special code that will allow you to redeem the price of samples and sample shipping when purchasing full bottles of the scents you sample ($10 off full bottles).
Complimentary Samples
We provide complimentary samples with $75+ full-bottle purchases. You may request up to 3 samples with any qualifying order. Please use the Order Note section on the Shopping Cart overlay to let us know which complimentary samples you would like. We'll try to provide the scents you've requested, but substitutions may occur if items are out of stock.
Returns
We do not accept returns of perfumes, simply because perfumes can't be resold once they've been opened and used. We encourage you to order samples before purchasing full bottles of perfume. And here's the good news — with every sample purchased, we'll send you a coupon code that allows you to redeem the cost of the sample and sample shipping if you buy a full bottle of the fragrance you tried (in other words, you get $10 off).
Please contact orders@ministryofscent.com if you have a question or issue related to your order or shipping.
Lovely fragrance that is mildly floral, dusty chocolate, vanilla dry down. Soft, cozy, delightful. Moderate sillage. Moderate longevity
Definitely the opposite of actual mud, maybe more like mud pie desert. Accurately described for the listed notes, I can easily pick them out on first spray. The first few minutes of wear do bring a sweet cool chocolate mousse desert to mind, and there is definitely some more "natural" sandalwood vanilla creaminess going on, but as the day goes on it ends up a pretty generic sugary sweet artificial whateverness. Definitely wearable, but for the price I wouldn't prefer this over any other sweet vanilla gourmands.
Bottle was messed up had to get ir replaced, they shipped me a new one free super fast! Great customer service. The scent is okay, not my favorite but definitely interesting!
Ok scent
