What does Black Muscs smell like?

It opens bright and citrusy with lemon and bergamot. The heart of patchouli, violet and rose turns floral with a light spiciness, and the base of amber and musk sweetens it, tying it to a woody, oriental warmth. A synthetic sheen and a fruity touch run through the blend.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall, winter and spring, with summer further behind. It leans towards leisure, evening and night-out wear, and the feminine and masculine votes sit close together, so it reads as in between. Spirit of Kings Acamar and Memoize White Castitas have a close profile.
