Osmo Scents Musc Bleu Il Profvmo for women

One of the more expensive perfumes I have bought, even reduced I walked out of the shop only to return an hour later, I just had to have it. It has an oily feeling on my skin (could this be one of the reasons it lasts so well?) Its beautiful muskyness is so much nicer than the Musk I remembered from childhood in 1970's, its more than that, its deeper with a hint of old moss roses, combination works well, can still smell on the skin the next day, it has lasted well as a little goes a long way, one of my favourites.

It's funny.....I hear people all the time ask for recommendations for a just out of the shower scent but if it has a soapy feel to it they shout nooooo!!!!! It's quite the oxymoron,yes? Nevertheless as people we like what we like.

Enter Musc Bleu. She starts out soapy. Period. Here's the thing.....this kind of soap isn't something you find just anywhere. It smells like cleanness from the lap of luxury. This is the kind of soap you find in the chalets that most of us can't afford to visit but instead just read about. There's nothing cheap smelling in Musc Bleu. In fact to me she is the epitome of discreet wealth.

As she warms up on your skin she takes on a radiance that's breathtaking. It's a bit innocent at first yes, but after a little while it brings forth a depth that's extraordinarily sexy. It literally makes your very skin draw people in for compliments. It's very much like a man's white shirt being worn by a dishelved woman......the next morning.It adds that beautiful ethereal depth to whatever you decide to layer it with as well.

Musc Bleu was born to layer~but she also does magnificently on her own. She belongs to no one that she doesn't choose~just like the woman who wears her. She's deceptively strong and independant in her pillow like softness.

For me she expresses the same sort of tone as an alto sax. Clean, beautiful, and yet she can be taken in so many different directions. She's a miracle of a White Musc!

(This review is for Eau de Perfume)

Clean, soapy and light, MUSC BLEU is inoffensive and safe white musk. The musk is discreet, graceful and beautiful in this scent but a bit too shy. The soapy accent neutralizes the animalistic and sensual side of the musk in this perfume in my humble opinion. It is like being on a spa retreat in very relaxed atmosphere with hypoallergenic white sheets, soft light, comfortable furniture and white candles. This scent conveys the feeling of purity, cleanliness and relaxation to me.

The beginning smells like a nice and luxurious bar of soap. The musk notes come through and mingle with the soapy scent. The ylang-ylang and geranium create a classic floral bouquet in the heart notes. The floral notes are softened by the musk. The soapy accent still dominates the scene in the heart notes. The dry down is the best part of this fragrance. The soapy notes are finally gone and I am left with subtle, gentle and chic white musk.

The scent stays close to the skin but lasts for a long time. I would recommend this scent for those who prefer white, gentle musk and do not mind soapy scents.

I, too, became excited from the review on Lucky Scent so I ordered two samples. I am glad I did because this is a lovely, everyday second skin scent. I can understand how it can smell like a cheap, drugstore musk, but it's a lot more complex than that and simply intoxicating. Complex AND Simple. Hm...and this is why I like it so much. It is a bit pricey but one person on Lucky scent suggested a less expensive alternative in Kiehl's Original Musk. However, side by side OM is much more dirty and on the heavy side. Musc Bleu is a lot more baby powdery and soapy; a clean white musk.

This musk is a skin-scent, the idea - of course - being old-fashioned, but the construction of this fragrance is rather clever. Flowers on a bed of musky notes - a quiet and discreet perfume which mingles with your own body-odour producing a very natural effect. It is really pleasant and clean, staying power is excellent, although it does not project very well and stays close to the skin. 6 out of 10 p. on my personal scale

This is my favorite clean scent--one that I discovered after a great deal of searching. Lucky Scent suggested Musc Bleu, and I'm so glad they did. I turn to this when I want to smell clean and soapy. I used to wonder how some people could smell like they'd just had a bath in the middle of a work day, and now I know. It's their perfume. I disagree that this is just another musk; most musks are at best boring. This is remarkably sweet and clean, and I do get some florals. This isn't grocery store soap; it's French milled and it's delish.

This perfume started with a big no-no!
It smelled of cheap shampoo from the 80s. Fairly strong and a bit annoying. Luckily, it calmed down, but now ... to a cheap old perfume .... musk perfume.
Okay ... It gets better and better but not enough in my eyes.
In the end it remains a no for me.

Soft and clean and pretty. I like this one, but definitely not enough to make me spend $125.

True, it's only a musk. But if you like musk, you will enjoy this one. If you love musk, you will adore this one! Beautifully blended indeed, graceful, fine and tasteful, it slips on like a second skin. In fact it makes your skin very sexy and loveable! There are some dainty, but delightful floral accords chiming through and oh my, it does last!

Yup - soap. Dry, musky, white musk, with no sweetness. Okay, if that's what you want. Lasts well. Still, it's awfully expensive for a bar of soap in a bottle. Also try: Ivory. I would not wear this as a woman, much better for a man.

Update, two days later: I want to add this this does have AMAZING staying power - in that sense it's worth the money if you love it. I put it on my hand and wrist to test, and not only washed my hands a few times but had two showers and I could still smell it! Good thing it's pleasant.

After sampling at least 10 differently highly-recommended white musk type niche scents from several different places, this was the clear winner.

It is an elegant and gorgeous scent, and unlike any other white musk scent I've tried. To me, it is the feminine version of SL Clair de Musc, which I find wears a bit too masculine on me. Musc Bleu is a masterfully blended soapy, slightly sweet, elegant white floral musk. It is a scent that feels like wearing a cashmere sweater while lazing on a chaise lounge reading your favorite book. It stays close to the skin yet wears for about 6 - 8 hours.

A white musk masterpiece.
