E Cashmere Musk

Ok, so last night I sprayed the perfume after shower before going to bed. It was a summer breezy night. On bed my husband literally put his nose on my neck for very long time while hugging me tightly and kept saying that I smell really good. I sprayed the perfume on the back of my neck, my chest, and my inner lower arms. I agree with everyone that this perfume does not project like a beast. But hey, the perfume did not only enveloped me in warmth, but also made my husband embrace me more. I could not ask for more than being loved more by my husband. I guess, you wear this perfume on your special "night". Definitely not in the summer heatwave in the afternoon as it may kill the softness that you after. Similar to other Clive Christian perfumes, you should not judge the smell on the first sniff/minutes. Their perfumes develop as the time goes by for you to enjoy it!

You need to be able to appreciate beauty, delicacy, and nobility—and it isn't difficult to do so. This fragrance is wonderfully composed; it is so elegant, comfortable, and incredibly gentle. Don't expect a powerful, heavy sillage here—that’s not what this is. It features magnificent musk woven into a sheer cashmere veil, with the lightest fresh floral undertone. Pure, blissful delight.

Hearing the name of the fragrance made me instantly blind buy it (crazy i know, but it was insanely worth it). I was worried this scent would be too feminine for a man, but i was completely wrong. This fragrance is more of a silky smooth fragrance that smells like a washed cashmere sweater in a beautiful green garden. I will repurchase this for however long this perfume is produced.

Wow, talk about a sleeper hit. E Cashmere Musk wears its elegance quietly. It starts fresh—bergamot cutting through with a clean, pepper-spiced spark—and then drifts into a truly intimate space. It’s not beast mode. Instead it’s like clean cashmere on skin: musky, refreshing, deeply personal, and beautifully restrained.

Finally added this beauty to my collection — E Cashmere Musk by Clive Christian. It’s like wrapping yourself in a warm cashmere embrace, softly musky, citrusy-fresh, with a whisper of elegance. Royal comfort in a bottle.

In a weird way this smells like doctors office in a good way Edit : this is the best musk ever imo I may have to get full bottle cus wow

This is such a gorgeous, soft, unisex musk. Truly ethereal and definitely not similar to most musks in the market.

literally a better version of another 13, and i hold that one special in my heart. need a bottle asap. 9.5/10

There are not words to describe this masterpiece. It smells like Lovel, Hug, Sky, Satin, Silk and Heaven

Absolutely gorgeous fragrance, fresh and cozy at the same time definitely all year around and unisex 👌

This is how I've always wanted Baccarat Rouge Extrait to smell. It's beautiful.

Similar to Gaiac 10 but this is more creamy/powdery.

Best muscy perfume out there, love it

Third of my series of Clive Christian reviews this week comes E Cashmere Musk, which conceptually at least would be a tougher sell for me as I do not wear many cashmere or musk fragrances, partly because if I am in the mood to go down that theme, Musc Ravageur is close to untouchable for me. Cashmere Musk is nothing like Musc Ravageur. As usual, I deliberately didn't read up on the reviews before I gave it a proper on skin test as I think the review that comes from that is a bit more really "me". I was expecting something... well... cashmere. And musk. It is, but the opening is a creamy citrus burst with a bit of sweet spice that serves as a platform for what comes next. It is bergamot but a very creamy one, with a dash of nutmeg and some cinnamon. It isnt sharp or edgy. Like an indulgent lime cheesecake but not as sweet or sticky. The musk's relationship with the creamy citrus top is defined by the homogenisation with the cashmeran. Helping blend it together is a soothing comfort blanket of something aldehydey; I want to say Ambroxin maybe, but much more subtly than we are used to. Interestingly, the creamy citrus top stays in for 6-7 hours and the musk doesn't move on the skin, so this is a very linear fragrance with no stunts or dancing but it does perform well. I get very little projection off it despite four sprays on each wrist and four on either side of my neck, so I think this is aimed at being an airy skin scent that is more sensual than erotic. Let's call it a second date fragrance. I think this is most profound difference between this and Musc Ravageur: the latter is an enveloping cashmere sweater that you can sink into that everyone around you can experience, whereas Cashmere Musk is a very personal thing. It is much more intimate, but again, not in a sexy way. I would also contend that Cashmere Musk is a year round wearable fragrance whereas Musc Ravageur is a tough(er) reach in the summer months. Super classy and fantastically well-blended, Cashmere Musk does lean feminine for me and is a bit too subtle for me to want to buy a full bottle for me, but would (and will) readily do so for my partner who loves this and I think would wear it a lot. Layering suggestion: Oddly I think it would go beautifully over a Musc Ravageur base layer as a means of freshening it up. Three Word Summary: Smooth Feminine Allure Scent - 7/10 Sillage - 6/10 Drydown - 6/10 Bottle/packaging - 10/10 Performance - 8/10 37/50

It's a nice and cozy scent. E Cashmere Musk offers a classic feminine soft citrus powdery musk profile, but it fails to bring anything new to the low sillage table. The composition is so seamless that the individual notes get lost, and the performance is surprisingly fleeting bergamot and blood orange —transforming into a mere whisper of jasmine about 10 mins after application. Considering the luxury price tag, the lack of sillage and staying power is hard to justify. You can find much higher-performing bright citrus forward musks at a much more reasonable price point. Update: I keep going back and forth with this one. I don't hate it. I layered it with Tilia by Marc Antoine Barrois and WOW!

The first 30+ minutes it's a citrus vetiver type affair before transitioning to the musk and cashmere. I love musk, but I prefer it to have a bit more horsepower. Very light and minimalistic take. Not a bad release, but it's not lighting my world on fire. And for CC price point, I need to be more impressed and perfume more present, to spring for a bottle. Good perfume that could use a little more character. Good drydown as a second skin scent with average longevity and minimal sillage. I'd be game at $100 because this would make a nice light office second skin type scent. -------------------------------------------------------- Scent 7/10 Performance 5/10

This is a classy, delicate, expensive skin scent. It’s predominantly a musk perfume, with light (and well done) citrus and floral touches. It’s quite pleasant but it’s certainly not a wow fragrance. Personally I couldn’t imagine spending AUD600+ on something like this, but I don’t know, if you want a well executed, low sillage scent maybe you would.

As a novice I'll do my best to describe my overall impressions. This fragrance opens with a slightly juicy blood orange with hints of pink pepper and ginger and then quickly settles into what I perceive to be cashmeran and musc. I find this fragrance to ultimately settle into a beautiful skin scent.

A full wear reveals similarities with Another 13, but with a floral undertone that makes it lean feminine. To me, a molecular type of fragrance that develops over time. Can’t be judged on top notes. Update: Sillage from warm skin is beautiful, and completely unisex.

I love scents that mimic an illusion that you smell clean not perfumey. Nice but not really my type. Better suited for a woman. I don’t know why I held on it for so long. Glad I did a trade with my friend just to get a gem from her.
