Musc Botanique Strange Invisible Perfumes for women and men

Ok, I like this one quite a bit at application. Must be my body chemistry, but this fragrance smells like Johnson's Baby lotion. Even so, I like it! I don't find it overly long lasting though.

For an all-natural perfume, this EdP starts out nice and strong. At first I mainly smell concentrated geranium, along with a little angelica and what is certainly ambrette (Abelmoschus moscatus seeds), even though it isn’t listed as such in the notes that I’ve seen. Maybe “white amber” is a euphemism for ambrette. However, when I checked on the SIP website, “botanical musk” is listed as one of the notes (well yeah, that’s the name of the perfume), so there’s the ambrette. In any case, I’m totally hooked on the geranium-ambrette combination. The geranium is strong enough to cover up the slightly unpleasant waxy opening of the ambrette and strengthen the floral aspects of the powdery, musky sweetness that eventually develops. In the drydown, I get almost pure ambrette. Just to confirm, I compared it with the ambrette CO2 extract that I have (and like to wear by itself from time to time), and there’s no doubt that’s what the main player is. Ambrette sticks around a long time, so this scent has good longevity. I think ambrette is a scent that grows on you after you wear it a few times and become familiar with its unique fragrance in all its glorious complexity. If you haven’t tried a natural “vegetable musk”, I highly recommend sampling this one.
