Musk Oil White

JoyJoy I do have the HJ vintage White musk. HJ was/is know for their quality oils. I have a vintage HJ EDP that has no name on it. and found it very ordinary. You may think you are getting a better deal on the 100 ml but the oil is like pure extrait. (IMHO) I would rather have the oil which just needs a very small dab and takes up a lot less space :) Terriep

My list of notes from the 90's White Musk Oil are the top notes Musk and amber are the top notes, and a very light bouquet of white flowers, lily of the valley, seringa, gardenia, and jasmine composes the background of this composition. Wonderful for a first perfume

I own this in the new EDP in the gold bottle. At first, I really didn't like it & was considering listing it on eBay. I tried different ways of wearing it (in my hair, etc.) but just found it too strong and just not enjoyable to me. It almost smelled a bit cheap even. All I smell is the musk which is synthetic so that actually makes sense I guess. Also, it's very oily so it's not something you can spritz & walk through. Anyway, I recently gave it another go & found that if I press very lightly I can get a tiny drop out of the spritzer & only then can I really appreciate this scent. So I'm basically applying it like I would one of their pure perfumes. This is a 100 ml bottle & about the same price as the 15ml pure perfume so in that respect it's pretty incredible-would take forever to get through a bottle & the price doesn't seem so bad that way. As for the fragrance, it smells to me of white musk, faint florals (I wish they were more pronounced) & maybe a little sandalwood or amber. I don’t get powder or sweetness or vanilla. It's clean & sexy. I think I'm growing to like it more when I wear it in this very light manner.

The Musk Oil I own by Henry Jacques, is from the 1990's and is a very different creature from what's listed here. I smell a lot of sandalwood, damask rose and white musk. I worked at a store in Sarasota Fl, back in the 1990s named Body Scentsations, where they sold a lot of hard to find perfumes and Niche before it was considered niche, like Parfums di Nicolai and Annick Goutal. This is an oil form and the longevity is very good on me, but it's not a powerhouse, it wears very close to the skin. It's one of my favorites.
