What does Musta smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, though the number of ratings is small, so these should be read loosely. Voters split it between leisure, daytime, business and evening, so it isn't tied to one setting. It reads as unisex, neither clearly masculine nor feminine.

It starts with leather and spice, then musk, tar and frankincense pull it toward a smoky, resinous character. The base adds an earthy warmth and a creamy sweetness through myrrh, patchouli, vanilla and amber. The fresh and synthetic accents lighten the heavy resin a little.
