Mysore & Kasturi

Here's for the most delicate musk blend, one as graceful and tenacious as Snowdrops. A solid statement of what proper aging can do to quality musk (Kasturi) and sandalwood (vintage Mysore). You'd have a difficult time calling it a musk in sandal maceration. That's how beautifully the two married and gave birth to a new olfactory dimension that only bears the slightest furry creaminess and the tenacity (which sandalwood lacks) that would have one guess "musk." I pick up notes that don't make sense yet feel so vivid - a floral creaminess that resembles the scent of lilies and frangipani, fruity nuances akin to banana and pear, vanilla and honey laced with warm cinnamon, and then the velvety woody texture of the sandalwood and a powdery, creamy, almost steamy and gentle furry-like facet imbued by the musk. Delicate as it is, tenacity-wise, it should not be taken lightly. The tiniest dot application will leave a massive trail and last the entire day. And that is the prowess of musk. It lends its fangs and pheromonal allure to the blend, while the sandal its tenderness. IG:@memory.of.scents
