What does Musk Oil Black (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind and summer rarely chosen. It leans towards leisure time, evenings and nights out.

Ylang-ylang and frankincense open it, benzoin and myrrh form the heart, and patchouli with Bourbon vanilla settles at the base. A floral opening gives way to a resinous, spicy heart and then a powdery, earthy, sweet dry-down. Its profile is close to Duftanker MGO Duftmanufaktur No. 15 and Note 33 L'Inévitable.
