What does Musk Oil Tropical Musk smell like?

It opens bright and slightly sharp with bergamot, lemon and pink pepper. In the heart, peony, magnolia and aldehydes pull it towards a clean floral line. As it settles, vanilla blossom, musk and sandalwood soften the sweetness; the accords also point to a fruity, woody and somewhat synthetic touch.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of ratings is small, so read that loosely. Its light, fresh build suits everyday wear and it reads as a feminine scent. Its profile is close to The Body Shop White Musk Sun Glow and Jessica Simpson Vintage Bloom.
