Musk Alize by Comptoir Sud Pacifique

Geri

First applied it smells like hairspray but it fades very quickly and leaves a beautiful light, powdry scent.The musk is very subtle and unique. I love it and with comptoir sud pacifique scents you can't do wrong anyways.

A very light musk, indeed; and lovely; it's the summer version of Ralph Lauren's Blue (for women) sort of. Inoffensive; softly sexy. You can wear this in public with abandon, and then surprise the one you cuddle up with.

Musc Alize is gorgeously ethereal. Soft, dreamy, sweet and clean. The lightest of light florals (jasmine, ylang ylang and violet), vanilla and the barest coconut shavings (though I don't think they're in the notes), making it just that little bit edible, like angelic candy. A must-try if you're after a lighter musk because it's unique in that I can't think of other light musks I've smelt that it's similar to (not that I've smelt them all!), but not Narciso Rodriguez, Egyptian musks, Coty Wild Musk, the Jovan musks, Parfums de Coeur musks, BPAL red or black musks (though some of these musks go deeper). If anything, it might be closest to a white musk (and it is in the base notes), though it's not discernable of what I usually smell as white musk, it's lighter and sweeter and softer...

And speaking of soft, Alize is very much that. I think you'd need the 100ml so you can spray it all over like a body spray almost!! Sometimes it lasts on me and sometimes it doesn't, and like a few musks (Egyptian Musk for one) there'll be times when I don't think it's there and then it turns up again! I almost didn't get it for that reason, but it really is too pretty to pass up.
