The Scent Profile

Musk is a soft, skin-like fragrance note that can smell clean, warm, creamy or subtly sensual. Some musks feel freshly washed and cotton-like, while others sit closer to the skin with a smooth, intimate warmth. Musk fragrances are often loved for their softness and quiet staying power.

How Musk Is Used in Fragrance

Musk is usually used as a base note, helping a scent feel smoother, softer and longer-lasting. It appears in fresh, floral, powdery, woody and skin-like fragrances, often paired with rose, iris, sandalwood, amber, vanilla, clean notes or soft woods. Look for musk if you like fragrances that feel close to the skin, clean, comforting or gently sensual.
