This is not a laundry detergent
Remember The Body shop's White Musk Eau de Parfum ? I would call that the entry-level of white musks. Histoires de Parfums' TinaBB 1.2 has a lot more to it, of course, but in essence it is a variation on the white musk theme. It gives off a similar 'clean skin' or even more so a 'clean laundry' scent.
So, the white musk forms the heart of this perfume but it is not alone. It gets support from vanilla and sandal, so there is quite a bit of cream going on. Now add to that a lot of flowers like lilac, ylang and white florals. What you then get is no longer a plain white musk, but a colorful explosion of flowers combined with that sensation of cleanliness. This is exactly what those laundry detergents pretend to be. HdP's version is more successful but sadly I cannot let go of the association, especially in the later stages.
