Musky Garden

No offence to anyone but shame on you guys who voted this down 🤬 You made me go through so mush stress blind buying It 😰 How could you? It’s gorgeous! I was hoping it’s nice and thought I’d like it based on the notes, but didn’t expect it to be this good... it does smell like something from Chanel or Narciso, but dare I say it’s even better! Prior to finding musky garden, Narciso Rouge was the closest i’d came to my dream makeupy perfume, but I don’t think I’ll ever reach for it again after discovering musky garden which smells like the longer lasting and sweetened version of NR mixed with Coco mad/intense. Smelling on someone you won’t think it’s from Mancera. It’s just a beautiful and very feminine combination of musk, rose and iris. Not as beast mode as a typical Mancera but solid. I still can’t justify the low rating... I mean I can’t imagine anyone disliking or being offended by this scent. So for the doubtful girls like me: It’s a safe blind buy if you like the notes. It’s a real catch for the price. I’m actually kinda happy that this is a hidden gem. I can make it my new signature and smell unique 😍

A nuclear floral fruity explosion, this fragrance is beautifully blended. It is so smooth and awakening. Isis is the main note for this accord I always detect with a subtle hint of cherry. After 2 - 3 hours, it leaves an aura around you. It will be flirted to your sense relentlessly. My nose is very easy to get fatigue, sometimes I barely smell anything. People can sense my scent as crazy! I therefore categorize this as my phantom perfume among my collection. For me this is such as a clone to Mademoiselle Chanel but it is smoother and muskier. It is more unique and the silage is way better than Chanel comparing the price wise. Longevity: 3/5 Silage: 4/5 Uniqueness: 4/5

This is a fantastic fragrance. I really enjoy wearing it. I catch myself thinking I smell really good when wearing this. The note that stands out is the musk. It’s a clean smelling musk but the combination with the fruit and the jasmine makes this a little bit sexy too I think. There’s enough floral in it, the jasmine in particular, that makes this feminine. This is comforting and uplifting at the same time. I can’t get enough of it. I find this easier to wear than say Roses Vanille by Mancera which as much as I love it, feels more overbearing. It’s strong like the other Mancera perfumes so I might not wear it to work. But it could pretty much fit any other occasion.

I had read the horror experiences with Manceras musks, but I completely trusted my instincts and it really hit the button! This is absolutely beautiful, very balanced in sweetness, real "full-blooded" white musk, the kind of real femme fatale, fatal women in their musk wants. The scent is simply stunning! Strong but airy. The berries here are jam-like and only the lack of oakmoss makes this suitable for day use as well. This is a boss-lady fragrance, definitely. *Written on an old bottle with a screw cap.

This is a very potent, beautiful fragrance. This is fruity, musky, and I get a bit of leather in the dry down. This lasts ALL day and night. I have to wonder at the reviews below that state this doesn't last long for them. This is a BEAST. I wonder if it's been reformulated. To me, it's very sensual, dark and deep. I get the patchouli, but I don't find it to be offensive. There are florals here, but they're not the star of the show. If you love berries and musk, this one is for you.

After watching and reading reviews, I was scared to buy Musky Garden. I was worried that it would be very musky and similar to Narciso Rodriguez fragrances (which I am not a fan of). I am so glad I bought Musky Garden. It was love at first sniff. Bloody amazing. Feminine, a bit clean but sexy. Musky Garden is the perfect balance of floral, fruity, and musky! Wow! Way better than I expected, I am so pleased 😊

This is like an older sister to Musk of Flowers. The typical Mancera floral accord is here but the amber rounds it out beautifully. Not as youthful as Musk of Flowers, but not too mature either. This one you can wear day and night, work or casual. It has the elegance and a little mystery. If you love florals with a little touch of darkness, you'll like this. Another awesome fragrance from Mancera.

This juice takes me on a journey of foraging fruits from their natural habitat. Gonna get a little dirty and musky from gathering all those fruits and flowers from the jungles, rain forest, gardens. A rose or two has found its way into this juice. Beautiful and alluring. leaning more feminine but the patchouli and musk dirty it up just a Lil bit

When you read the notes, it might sound simple, but there is a literal magic in this perfume. It is very well blended, with beastly longevity that is not overpowering. This perfume is a true heaven. If you like musky-floral scents, this is a 10/10. I am not typically a fan of Mancera, but this will definitely be my next purchase.

Beautiful but took a while. Upon initial blast it was way too musky for me. Took a while to adjust to the fruity nuances. Now an absolute LOVE. Favourite work fragrance since it lasts for more than 12 hours in my skin. LOVE LOVE LOVE

This is an amazing perfume- under reviewed IMO and wasn’t love at first sniff but came back to this one and bought a full bottle. So glad it’s in my collection, gorgeous scent.

what a lovely fruity floral scent that is not too much either on sweetness or florals...but it lasts a very log time.why is it for women only?LOVE it over purple flowers 9/10

I really like this pretty easy to wear scent but not so keen on the name. I wouldn't walk into the ladies changing room and declare "Ooh, I smell musky garden!" 😳

If anyone remembers those Rose Petal Palace dolls from the 80s (I know, I know, I’m aging myself), this smells just like the rose one. I love it!

This is magical unicorn juice. I must have it! I have been smelling myself all day and asking for feedback. So far, it's all good.

So pleasant, fruity, musky !! I'll be fall in love with the girl who wear this fragrance

This is like lazy sunday morning but 10x better performance

The bottle is gorgeous and deceiving! Because the scent is not dark or mysterious as you might think or as I thought... it is juicy, fruity, floral and very clean, with the berries shining from the opening to the later powdery dry-down... very fresh, cooling, young and nice... perfect as a daily feminine fragrance... I think It works great for the college / office or in the morning (summer and winter)... I guess young girls would love it... its not what the sexy elegant bottle suggests... but in a good way... To be more specific, It's fruity candies in a bottle as simple as that (the chewy type)... a solid feminine scent... better than many fragrances from Dior, YSL, Lancôme, and their endless forgettable flankers. 8.5/10... long lasting safe fem fragrance 👍 Update: 10 days have passed, and this is still beautiful and well-defined on the paper strip! Not a ruins or remainings of a fragrance at all... It's now a very nice, powdery fruity scent 👌

#249 in my "Tour de Fragrance" This is based on the reaction of the twenty-something woman I gave this to. "I really like it. Not too powdery. Feminine, but not girly." Not how I reacted to this scent at all, which I thought very powdery, and I'm generally a rose note hater. But when I first smelled this fragrance, I actually thought of Elle right away. She's what you'd call a "terrible beauty." Androgenous. Strong. Brilliant intellect of a centuries old soul. Wicked humor. Sexy as she wants to be. Not someone to trifle with. She'd seem right at home with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other. This is a scent she can wear and come across as powerful not powdery. Not sure most women could.

Beautiful clean scent, refreshing after-shower feeling, unique soap and mint/menthol vibe, one of the top 5 Mancera openers. Feminine leaning, softens but doesn't disappoint in the dry down. Opening immediately captures my attention, made me smile and happy. Strong soap accord with a mint/menthol sensation. Mid notes the scent becomes more sophisticated and leans masculine while keeping clean fresh character of the opening. Dries down into a smooth Dove hand soap, but still pleasant and easy to wear anytime. Very standout discovery from the House of Mancera. Uplifting and addictive.
