What does Ivy Musk smell like?

It is built from salty notes, musk, ivy and animalic notes, with a flat structure rather than a top, heart and base split. The green coolness of ivy comes forward alongside the salty notes, while musk and the animalic notes settle it onto a warm, slightly earthy ground. Synthetic and spicy accords add a dry edge.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Votes for autumn, winter and spring are close to each other, and leisure and evening wear lead the occasions. Masculine and feminine votes sit near each other, so the scent leans neither way firmly. ADN Paris Musc Noir and Avon Musk Marine have a close profile.
