Types of Musk:
Though present-day animalic musk is mostly synthetic and can be criticized as unethical to a certain extent, all types of musks add their special note to a fragrance.
- Animalic Musk: Originally sourced from the musk deer the scent is prohibited in modern use and is artificially produced to give the same warm, musky, and gamey attributes.
- Synthetic Musk: These include artificial musks such as Galaxolide and Ambrettolide that are synthesized in the laboratory with a multi-use note, as mentioned above. Mainly, they are applied in recent fragrance production processes.
- Plant-Based Musk: The natural musk smells opposed to synthetic ones include softer florals that are refreshing; they are originally sourced from natural substances such as ambrette seeds.
How to Choose a Musk Perfume
Deciding on the most suitable musk perfume is more or less a process of selection.
- Know Your Preference: Choose if you want to have a soft musk or immediate with a heavy and dense scent.
- Test on Skin: The final piece of advice would be: do consider spraying perfumes on your skin as musk can behave diversely to different people.
- Consider the Occasion: Fragrance specialist musks are great for the day while deeper musks are best for in the evening or night.
- Longevity and Sillage: Take note of how many hours the perfume lasts, and how far it goes.

I wasn't sure what to expect before walking in, but it exceeded my expectations. They had a great variety of scents, and a good selection of the ones I wanted to smell before buying. April and her coworker were amazing at helping me pick the perfect gift for my friend. The prices are reasonable, and I will definitely be back.
