What does Musc smell like?

Jasmine, ylang-ylang and lily of the valley carry the floral side, while raspberry and melon add a fruity sweetness. White musk lays a powdery, creamy base beneath them, and amber and civet bring a woody, animalic warmth. A synthetic edge also runs through the accords.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and wears quietly. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it suits leisure, daily wear and the office. Voters read it as feminine more often than not, though a fair share call it masculine. Carrement Belle Musc Originel 1988 and Jōvan White Musk for Women have a close profile.
