This fragrance smells like petrichor, asphalt when the rain starts, and violets. It is utterly unique and intoxicating. I wish I had bought more of it, as I’ve yet to smell anything even reminiscent of it. It’s one of the few fragrances that when I wear it people constantly ask me what I am wearing.

Smells like smokey violet bubble gum. I’ll pass. It’s like fishnet stockings in children’s sizes.
Just compared it to S.J. Dupont Signature for men, and that’s a lot less fake smelling.
Habanita by Moulinard would probably be a better idea too for a smokey heliotrope.

I’ve had this one forever and it’s still going strong. I bought it as part of a MAC limited edition makeup line. Love the fact that it comes in a rollerball which makes it easy to apply and pop in your handbag. This starts off very sweet and intense on me, always staying close to skin. Very powerful little scent! As it settles down you can smell the powdery violet and vanilla. Slightly smoky with a hint of balsamic woods blended in carefully which smells a little masculine. This creates a fine balance which keeps it from becoming a sweet floral overload. The name “Asphalt Flower” suits this scent perfectly. I can almost imagine an old smoky asphalt road overgrown with strange wildflowers. Nostalgia from my Gothic times that I’ll keep forever.
“A deep dark, erotic fragrance that takes its place in MAC’s Trend F/W ’09 collection as the aromatic complement to this alt-fashion look. Features glossy violet and iris petals, vanilla and patchouli with top notes of violet, ylang-ylang; mid-notes of iris, heliotrope and a finale of olibanum, patchouli and M∙A∙C signature vanilla.”

Asphalt Flower smells a lot like Angel and Angel Violette on me, and I can imagine the asphalt note. Strong fragrance, requires just a touch. Sturdy elegant rollerball. I’d love to see MAC bring Asphalt Flower back as permanent collection.

I had the original from the 1990s. it was a perfume oil and once you put it on, it stayed! I loved the MAC potions, wish they would bring them back

Full bodied and delicious. Smells alittle softer than the original. Less smokey but definately powerful. has a really nice powdery dry down and finish. one of the best. Needs to be permanent at stores to balance the light coolness of Turquatic.
