Musk

Musky Note

Musk

The one people call clean skin.

What is it?

Modern musks are synthetic molecules developed to replace historic animal sources.

Where it comes from

Laboratory materials such as Galaxolide and Habanolite.

What it smells like

Soft, powdery, warm, sometimes laundry-clean, sometimes distinctly skin-like.

In perfume

Musk is the finishing coat: it blurs edges, adds intimacy and gives a fragrance that worn-in halo.
