What does Un Musc smell like?

It opens with Italian bergamot and Madagascan ginger, bright with citrus and a touch of spice. In the heart, Persian galbanum adds a green edge while Haitian vetiver and Indian amyris lay down a woody base. The base lists Globalide®, Muscenone®, Helvetolide® and Ambrettolide, and the accords lean synthetic and powdery.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily, leisure and business wear lead the occasions. Votes split evenly between masculine and feminine. Obvious Un Bois and Prada Infusion de Vétiver (2015) have a close profile.
