PowderyWhat does Musk Extrême smell like?
It opens with rose, fresh notes and aldehydes. In the heart, iris, ylang-ylang, jasmine and spices fill out the floral core. The base of dry woods, vanilla, musk and animalic notes turns it sweeter and heavier, with a synthetic, oriental edge that stays present.
Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most. It reads more feminine than masculine, though a fair share see it as masculine. Avon Soft Musk and The Body Shop White Musk have a close profile.
