White Musk Collection Urban Musk Tom Ford for women

It smells similar but worse than Black XS. Yeah, the pineapple. Ridiculous price too.

Animalistic for sure. Don't get "urban" from this though. I just smell a dense raw musk, maybe for someone wearing an exotic fur coat.

The first thing that comes to my mind is

"Old MacDonald had a farm = E - I - E - I - O ..."

Hardly anything 'urban' about it, scent is very reminiscent of a horse stable or a barnyard.

Pungent and ridiculously overpriced.

Yes, this fragrance should be rated X or at least the opening of it should be. The initial impression is that of someone who has doused themselves liberally in Chanel No. 5--it's the jasmine--then literally had a roll in the hay with someone in a barn. There is an earthiness that is very close to nature here. Then, it is over and all that is left is the most wonderful glow.

The jasmine is soon overcome with a very smoky, smouldering musk. This is heaven. The first time I tried this I wasn't convinced. It was too primal, too carnal and just too filthy for a nice girl like me looking for a light, spring fragrance. Well, my inner rebel must have taken over because now I want to wear this every day. Not at night but during the day. To work. To the grocery store. Everywhere. The sexiness of this fragrance worked its magic on me and now all I want is more, more, more.

First of all - I detect no faecal note whatsoever: earthy, yes; faecal, no. It's a very raw composition, hedonistic and easily the most distinguishable fragrance from the White Musk Collection. I like it. I like that warm, sweet but dark opening, I enjoy it's 'dirty' qualities. I think on a whole it is a well balanced frangrance, certainly not however, for everyday wear. Wear it to a lounge bar or the theatre, somewhere luxurious and exclusive. It'll get you noticed, in a good way too.

Urban Musk is unique, but its very difficult to wear - it gives people the initial thought of
"Who the hell crapped their pants?!"

But the dry down gradually improves into something more mellow, floral and velvety.

Horses stable meets Jovan Musk.

I find that the Tom Ford range is ridiculously expensive though. Each are unique in their own, but not worth the money.

This opens with the scent of manure. It really does smell like a barnyard.

It takes its time to settle down, though that dirty note never disappears completely. The heart is velvety smooth and sweet with the plum and honey being most prominent. The base smells like amber and burnt vanilla (presumably the benzoin). It doesnt smell modern to me. Quite retro. Its easily unisex but id say it leans more towards feminine. It lasts a long time, but its longevity isnt totally amazing. It doesn't project very far, but i think thats a good thing!

Its very unique. I like it, but it does smell filthy and a little kinky. Im not convinced it is worth the price (far from it actually, the price is a bit of an insult) and it doesnt smell as luxurious as the private blends in the darker bottles, and that's not just my imagination. Sure, they are overpriced too, but they at least 'feel' expensive. I managed to get mine cheap off a friend who recieved it as a gift but hated it.

Love the bottle. It is much better in person than in pictures.

As BronxBeauty said; dont wear this if you want to smell nice!

Somebody stop me! I'm so in love! the prettiest musk I've ever seen. words are not enough!

I am winging it here, without peeking at the notes or other reviews, so bear with me...Mint, dry horse poo, vanilla & spice. At first, all these notes compete-they do not synthesize until later on, at which point Urban Musk becomes fresh, pleasant, and comforting. In no way should this be compared to the horsey quality of animalic scents like La Nuit by Rabanne, where the animal scent is of warm skin and fur. This is definitely fecal, too much so for me, but luckily the indolic note fades after about 15 minutes, leaving only a soft, dry hay in its wake. The mint persists throughout but lessens in sweetness and takes on more of a Basil feel as some powdery florals show up in the heart. This fragrance should have some type of country-farm-in-the spring moniker instead of Urban Musk, which implies a sleek & metallic aroma. Sillage is discreet, longevity good. Easily unisex. While I am not sure if I would wear it, I admire its originality and a well-constructed drydown.

hahaha i LOVE your review BronxBeauty! I was looking in to getting this one, but not now!

Wowie Zowie!

I put this one on this morning before work -- how inappropriate that turned out to be!

This scent is the dirrrrrrrrtiest I've tried yet. When the top musk note assaults you at the opening, you think, 'eeew, naaaaaaaaasty!' But then it settles down to something if not more sedate, then more perfume-y. The pepper and caraway dance. The plum, white honey and jasmine add an indistinct theme, like a muted trumpet at the back of a '30s jazz song.

In an earlier review, I described Tom Ford's Champaca Absolute as the boozy fragrance of a wild party, heavy enough to mask all sorts of bad behavior, like pot smoking or sex with someone you're not supposed to have gotten it on with.

Well, Urban Musk is the OPPOSITE. It makes you smell like you've just had five different kinds of sex with three people of various genders behind the velvet curtain backstage at The Box caberet.

It will be very popular on the New York club circuit with both straights and gays.

In short, I loved it. It's startlingly edgy and different, an anti-perfume.

Just don't wear it if you want to smell nice.
