What does Muschio smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin as a quiet scent. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer and winter chosen less often. Leisure, daily wear and business are the most voted occasions. It leans feminine in character, though it is unisex.

Jasmine and rose open it, with lily of the valley at the heart. Amber and musk sweeten the base and tie it to a creamy, faintly animal warmth, while the spicy accord stays in the background. Montale Roses Musk (Eau de Parfum) and Shelley Kyle Ballerine have a close profile.
