Narciso Rodriguez For Her Musc Nude

I have already in my collection the original Narciso EDP (discontinued), some samples from Poudree, Rouge EDP (love it's warmness and complexity of notes, again discontinued of course) Cristal (there's something interesting about it even though it's boring for most of you) and Pure Musc, Musc Rose Noir from the 'for her' line. Now that I am thinking about I see that I have too many from the house and I never ended a bottle. Well done Mr. Rodriguez. You got my money but you deserve it. Sorry for the big introduction but there's something in Musc Nude that intrigues me as hell. Could it be the tonka bean added to the For Her signature? Do I think that there's a connection between Fleur Musc (discontinued, the fuschia bottle) and Rose Musc Noir as most of the people comment? Do I find it more attractive and less complex compared to Rose Musc Noir? Yes...there's something that makes me want it and I understood it when I decided to try it on my skin. On paper you'll think it's just another release. It sounds funny, but in the opening I am getting an annoying olive tree note like in Un jardin à Cythère by Hermes, no, they don't have any connection at all, with some drops of a martini full of green olives. The for her musky signature just makes it worse, but after an hour the magic begins. Yes ladies and gentleman, the dry down on skin is 90% their best discontinued masterpiece, Narciso EDP (the white cube) even though gardenia isn't included in the notes (white flowers are though listed). It's how I think white could smell as a color. On skin it's a classy person, an embrace, a hug from someone who really cares about you, the person you wanna sleep in his/her hug and feel safe, a dream that makes you wake up happy, the taste of Greek traditional bonbons we give in weddings. Art, white statues, stary night skies, true musc, clean bedsheets, class, addiction, these are some words to describe the Narciso EDP. Imagine a mix of those 2 things. Do I have to buy a bottle just for the dry down? I swear I will stop with my perfume addiction but Nude Musc..you've got me! The only thing that helps me not to buy it is that luckily I am in the period of expressing and not in my 'I know who I am, respect me' phase.

I am a long time fan of Narciso Rodriguez’s fragrances but the last few releases were a complete let down for me. This gives me hope that they are going back to their roots.. For Her Musc Nude is a lovely, musky sweet and powdery white floral. Delicate and tender, soapy and powdery. Clean and light, feminine and seductive. Pretty girl that’s naturally beautiful and always put together! It’s so cozy and warm, this feels exactly the heavenly creamy scent that I can’t get enough of. It might be simple, but it’s not boring at all. I have most of For Her line and after sampling this Nude version, I want it. It’s a gorgeous feminine scent that dries musky, rosy, sweet and woody. Just by looking at the light pink, semitransparent bottle, you can get an idea of how it smells. Like the bottle looks like! Pretty. Soft. Calm. Sophisticated. Dainty. Elegant. Ethereal. Charming. Alluring and sensual, For Her Musc Nude is a real gem for musk and white floral lovers like me! Might work for all seasons because it has a great lingering effect but it’s not too in your face. Great for all ages. Will samples further to test thoroughly the performance on my skin before deciding to buy a full bottle because it’s kind of pricey. Not massively overpriced like the majority of the newer designers releases, but it ain’t cheap for sure! Edit: March 2024, got a full bottle!

Ohh, this one is pretty. I love how feminine and soft it is. It is definitely a clean girl scent. Its perfect when you just want to smell clean and feminine without trying too hard (not soapy or laundry detergent) . I am still exploring this sample but I am moved to purchase at least a 30ml. Its perfect to include in your post shower routine. Its nice for lounging in the house and you still want to feel pretty but natural. Its a feminine take for white t shirt and jeans. I also think I would purchase this over Lazy Sunday Morning or Lancome Idol. Both of which I thoroughly enjoyed. I just think this perfume combines the essence of those perfumes perfectly. My perfume journey feels almost complete as I have a Narsico cube ( Poudree which is my favorite and staple powder) and now this one as a signature musk. I just think everyone would benefit from a signature cube and regular bottles. There is one for everyone Update: idk if I like this one... I recently tried for her intense with the peach note that then turns woody. This one I will agree with another commenter the pink pepper tinkles my nose too much I dont like the opening but I think it is proving to be a nice musk to layer under other perfumes like oriana maybe? But I can see this being something I can pull out when I am older and refined as well

I am surprised by so many mixed reviews. I just got Musc Nude and I am definitely intrigued by it - it's not a love yet, but there's definitely something that makes me want to keep sniffing. Upon first spray, it initially does have a root beer scent, but there's something super addictive about this new NR. I can't put my finger on it, but it smells like something I know, almost 90s-like. I can say that after the root beer opening, there's a soft, hazy, powdery white floral (not indolic) fuzz that is definitely sweet but not in a sugary way. More like honey/orange blossom. The musk in it is also reminiscent of Initio Musk Therapy. I am not saying they are the same, but there are similarities in the sweet musk; there's a similar feel between them. I know there is not a fruit listed, but the sweetness of the florals tricks you into thinking there may be. I also agree with someone's comparison of the scent to a type of body oil. I am sure I have smelled this before in an oil, a body product or something. It's a great skin scent. Definitely for the floral lovers, but the musk tames it just enough to not become a wild bouquet.

Ok, first things first, I have no idea how people are getting Musc Noir or Musc Noir Rose from this, I’m definitely not smelling it (no fruitiness, no suede, no heliotrope, which I personally pick up a lot in MN). Musc Noir is my favorite from the For Her line, but Nude is coming in strong. I find it heavier than Musc Noir, sexier, sweeter, spicier, and kind of darker, almost heady. Nude is a perfect name for it because, to me, it’s definitely a ‘night activity’ perfume. I find Musc Noir also sexy personally, but also more classy and versatile, I see Nude more as an evening/night scent. I’m not sure I’d personally wear it during the day or in warmer months, but from what I’ve seen, that might put me in the minority, I have no idea what’s going on 😂 It might be the tonka beans, which on my skin come off as spicy, sweeter, and almost tobacco-like, while the musk adds a clean quality (the white flowers contribute to that too) and it's powdery, it has a very slighlty skanky quality, not in a bad way it has the vibe of perfumed skin after sleeping in it or, honestly, after sex.
