7.1

Musk Collection

Fresh · Floral · Sweet

Musk Collection Black / Musk Collection is a powdery, sweet scent for women, built on musk and fresh notes that lead into a floral heart. It opens with fresh notes and musk. Iris, ylang-ylang and jasmine give the heart a soft floral character. The base returns to musk with woody and powdery notes, drying down creamy, lightly spicy and touched with an oriental sweetness. Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall and spring, and it suits daily wear and leisure best, though business and evening get votes too. Voters mostly read it as feminine. Narciso Rodriguez For Her Musc Collection and The Body Shop White Musk have a close profile.

White Musk Collection

7.5

Musk Collection

Fresh · Floral · Sweet

Musk Collection White Musk Collection is a fresh, powdery floral built around ylang-ylang, rose and white lily. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and is noticed at short distance. Voters pick it for daily wear, the office and leisure, and fewer choose it for sport. It is classed as a women's fragrance. With few votes behind these ratings, they point a direction rather than settle it. The top holds ylang-ylang, fruity notes and rose. In the heart, white lily, jasmine and vanilla sweeten the floral core. Sandalwood and cedarwood form a woody base underneath. The accords pair fresh and sweet sides with powdery and animal tones. Anna White and Clean Blonde Rose have a close profile.

In the heart, geranium, jasmine, sandalwood and oakmoss turn it woody and earthy, with spicy and sweet accords showing through. The base of musk and amber leaves a creamy, slightly animalic warmth. Davidoff Cool Water (Eau de Toilette) and The Body Shop White Musk for Men have a close profile.
