The Musk Thread! Need to know what type is for you?
Wildchild453 replied to SKiser's topic in Recommendations
I'm a big fan of musk, two of my favorite scents are Les Bijoux and Torture Queen. I love the skin musk in Les Bijoux, does anyone know of another scent that compares? Neutral is already on my radar and I can't wait to mix it with a whole bunch of things. -
Bottle: Mmm caramel and a bit of tobacco. I think I like it. Wet: This smells delish so far. A nice blend of amber, caramel, coconut and tobacco. I think the currant helps make it a bit fuller Dry: This is really heady and cloying, I feel like I'm in a opium den Overall: I gonna try this again before I decide whether to get a bottle or not but I do like it. I feel like its the perfect club blend...something very sexy

Bottle: Roses and lots of roses and sandalwood Wet: There is something dark almost musky in this, a darker floral. A bit of sweetness too Dry: Its a mix of a lot of things, still very musky and sweet. The rose don't really show up nor the vanilla. I wish I had a better nose so I could pick out more notes Overall: I give it about a 3/5. Its not bad, it dries down to something very nice. I'm gonna have to try it out a few more times before I decide whether to get a bottle or not. Its different from my usual

Bottle: Is it bad that from botlle I don't think it smells as good as it should. Its plasticy vanilla and cream with a hint of ammonia Wet: UGH, its sharp and just nasty smelling, like burning plastic Dry: Yea, minty...I didn't sign up for mint. It kinda smells like a cleaner for wood my grandma used to use Overall: My sense of disappointment is great. The blend seemed like it would be beautiful but just turned to a horror picture on me
-
Bottle: This is a really nice. Very light floral scents. I'm not really familiar with these scents so I won't be able to pick it out. Something is very sharp though Wet: Very subtle, the green tea gives it a very nice presence especially mixed with the cherry blossoms Dry: Still very subtle but now there is something fruity and sweet, with a hint of sharpness. Overall: 5/5 for me . I think its a perfect Spring scent, everything just comes together so nicely. Its one of those scents that would have someone glued to your nose, so I don't mind the lack of throw too much
-
Bottle: Fruity! I smell grapes and something else..I wonder what it is? Maybe figs, maybe pomegranates Wet: Weird!!!! Fruits and a lot of them. I think I smell the grapes, figs and dates with beautiful honey behind it. It doesn't seem to have much throw yet but I'll wait till it settles a bit more before I decide. Dry: Still very sweet and fruity only its mellowed out nicely through the honey Overall: I give it a solid 3.5 out of 5. Nice for a spring day but I can't smell any milk!!
-
Bottle: Mmmm pears with something behind it that comes across kind of sharp Wet: Very faint pears and I believe I smell a hint of vanilla. There also seems to be something a little incensey dancing in the background Dry: A whole lot of pears and no vanilla. This is really strong almost to the point of piercingly so Overall: I give this a 2.5/5. I don't care too much for it and I wanted to love it. Maybe a few more hrs into the drydown it will meld into something beautiful but for now its gonna either be sold or layered with something

Bottle: What a weird combo. I get a bare hint of chocolate and a whole heaping of fruit notes. A nice blending of fruit..not too sharp Wet: I am not good at picking out fruit notes especially when there are this many. I think the peach is there and maybe some vanilla. Its very pretty smelling...I think I can catch the cocoa absolute sitting in the back ground. Its kinda showy, definite throw Dry: First impressions of it drying is that there is something very acidic/sharp cutting through....I'm not sure I like. 13 has mellowed out a bit but I think its a bit strong for me, it gives a bit of a headache. Its more of a mix of fruit and florals..hmmm Overall: I give this a 2.5-3 out of 5. Its not great but its not horrible...maybe I can layer it with something

Bottle: The cinammon comes out alot with cocoa wafting in and out with a hint of bitter coffee Wet: I think it just got shy on me..or my skin ate it. That's not nice at all Dry: It came back out to play. My skin amps cinammon like, for a few minutes there it I smelled like a Big Red but its morphed into something creamier with the cocoa and coffee coming out to play Overall: I think I can give this a solid 4/5. It blends nicely in its drydown into this wonderful blend of chocolate, coffee with a hint of cinammon. I think the sugar is what makes it warm as oppose to the hottness of the cinamon
-
Bottle: Pure gingerbread cookies...it reminds me of my granmother's gingersnaps. The spice helps add a cpmplexity to it Wet: It smells hot, the cinammon cuts through alot, mixed in the the ginger its kinda nice Dry: Someone's baking..thats all I can think. The cinammon stays pretty strong with the ginger...I don't really get a sense of the nutmeg and the clove..yet but maybe they will play later Overall: I give this a 3.5/5. I like it, its not one that I would wear often since I would probably get hungry and its not too complex. However, its still a keeper! Oh and it has decent throw. I put a lil on the inside of my elbow and I can smell it wafting around ETA: Its been about 6 hrs and I have to say GP kinda rocks, its dried down to this sweet/not too sweet/enticing smell that is delish. Every so often it wafts up and I'm like what smells soo good. Yummy

Bottle: Chocolate with something sweet behind it. There is also a spice that I'm thinking is the pumpkin. The longer I smell it in the bottle the sweeter it comes across Wet: Mmm, chocolate and pumpkin, there is something very warm to this scent that I'm sure is the caramel Dry: Dry the pumpkin comes out way more combined with the sweetness of the caramel. The chocolate fades which isn't a bad thing. I can't smell hte pomegranate but that might be because I don't know what it smells like exactly. Overall: I give this a 4 out of 5. Its has great throw but for a few moments it was just a bit TOO sweet but that dies down once the caramel takes a bit of a back seat and I can finally smell fruit! I do like it, it will def be my fall/winter scent

Holy Lemon Pledge!!!! That is my very first impression..its not bad b/c there is a bite to it but man...lemon Ok, its calmed down a bit..and there is a lil jasmine behind it. sidenote: I think this is one not to slather b/c my finger i used to put it on smells much lighter. The lemon is not as strong and the other notes come through(yes i so put a dollop on when I'm testing) ETA: I think I need to get rid of this

On wet: Sweet almonds is all I get. Not a bad thing since I love the way it smells Drydown: Sandalwood with a orange peel edge. Its nice, just praying it doesnt take an evil turn to baby powder. Since its either that or myrrh that does that. I think I like it which is good since I bought a bottle unsniffed I just wish the spiciness of the cloves would come out
