What does White Musk for Men smell like?

Lavender opens it, and jasmine and geranium add a soft floral heart. The base of musk, amber, vetiver, sandalwood and tonka bean settles it into a sweet, creamy, woody footing, with a spicy touch and a slightly synthetic edge.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and fall, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. It reads mostly masculine, though some voters find it feminine. Prada Luna Rossa Sport and Instituto Español Poseidon God have a close profile.
