Musk fragrances feature musk notes, soft scents reminiscent of clean skin, laundry, cotton or powder. They cling close to the skin and are subtle, making them ideal for everyday wear, whether at the office, while travelling or in the summer. Some musks are warmer, more animalic or more amber-like, creating more sensual compositions for the evening.
Among the fragrances in this selection: Santal Cashmere by Khalil T., from €45 for 9 ml; Blanche Bête by Liquides Imaginaires, ambrette seed, milk accord and jasmine, from €170 for 50 ml; Musc Tonkin by Parfum d'Empire, €190 for 50 ml; Un Musc by Obvious Parfums, €130 for 100 ml; Musc Panache by Maison Rebatchi, from €102 for 50 ml; and Kryptonite by Khalil T., with cedarwood, iris absolute, jasmine sambac and white sandalwood, €215 for 100 ml.
Since musks are perceived differently from one skin to another, the best thing is to try them at the boutique, 27 rue de Marignan, Paris 8th. The Scent Matchmaker lets you narrow down the choice online.
