Musk 01

I have only just received it and had it on my arm for the past 20 minutes. I dare to say - love at first sniff. A delicate orange blossom with lily, and these dance beautifully together. No headache inducing - just a pure pleasure sniffing the scent bubble around me. I didn't get any pink pepper, and bergamot is there but very subtle. It is not a sweet scent, just lightly sweetened by vanilla at this stage. It reminded me right away of Diorissimo by Dior, but if we could say that Diorissimo was a "bad" guy, this one is the bad guy turned "innocent". It's a spring in a bottle with a lot of air and light. Mood uplifting. So far it does not project enormously, which is a shame. I will update on the drydown, projection and longevity, shortly. Update: Longevity: 9/10 (applied for bedtime, in the morning the scent was still there, albeit a skin scent). Projection: 7.5/10 (scent bubble mostly, not a huge trail behind me) Drydown: pink pepper noticed after half an hour to an hour of wearing it (felt it in my throat after sniffing). It's quite light though. Bergamot is there all the time, but it's intensity somewhat goes up and down interchangably with two others: orange blossom and lily, but gets a bit more pronunced in the drydown, not sure why. Gentle musk and vanilla make it very cosy though. It's not a gourmand, it's not an aftershave. Definitely leaning feminine. It also reminds me of Elie Saab Le Parfum due to the orange blossom that stayes until the very end. But in M01, it is a less harsh version, extremely enjoyable. Recommended: 9/10 (projection could be a notch amplified) and longevity is great for this soft springy sent.

I meant to write a review when I first sprayed my sample but was too distracted by falling in love and adding Musk 01 to cart to remember 🙃 I don’t do ‘signature scents’ because I enjoy sampling and layering perfume so much. However, if that weren’t the case, I’d be all over this scent all of the time! This seriously could work any season and anytime of the day because this reads as cleeeeeeaaaan. There’s a photorealistic pollen note from a lily flower that’s beautiful; it’s reminiscent of when each of a lily bouquet’s flowers are all open. The orange blossom note is soapy and bright like a bubble bath in the sunshine. I think the elemi resin (particular favorite of mine) adds a fizzy interest to otherwise fairly crisp accords. This is a musk for musk lovers and for the “clean girls” who love a fragrance that smells clean without smacking of cleaning products. Musk 01 is like clean laundry, hotel towels and freshly showered & moisturized skin with floral notes and a delicate sandalwood at the base. I’m surprised to get a solid 5 hours from this fresh fragrance. I’m even more surprised how well it layers with Oakcha’s “Morning Rain” and Dossier’s “Aquatic Coconut.” I’ve gotten about 3 feet of projection and is closer to the feminine side of the gender spectrum. That said, of course, any musk lover could enjoy this. As always I encourage sampling to experience on your skin before committing to a decant or full bottle.

Veryyy lovely fragrance, i dont usually allow arab fragrances to sit amongst my niche fragrances on the shelf but this one definitely deserves it's spot. Probably the best £45 i've spent on a fragrance, its this beautiful clean scent but soft at the same time, in the opening it resembles an expensive soap and then as it dries down and becomes softer it starts to resemble a more expensive bath soak kind of, the white flowers make it lean a little feminine, perhaps 55% but nothing more than that. Lovely fragrance overall, projection and longevity are moderate but i feel like this scent profile is a 'meant to be discovered' not a 'in your face' type of profile good 8.5/10, 9/10 when you factor in the price, would 100% recommend if youre looking for something clean to wear any time of the year

Though this leans feminine, I truly love this musk. It is so addicting and intoxicating and I love opening the cap for a sniff here and there when I'm not wearing it. I feel like this layers beautifully with fresh citrus or aquatics. I have layered this with Versace Pour Homme on many occasions and it just truly transforms into this addicting scent I just cant get enough of. I know at first this could seem very heavy, and it is, but if you wear it the right way it is just so good. A little goes a very long way with this one and it smells expensive. This is a very heavy musky orange blossom neroli musk that leans feminine and is long lasting, so you have to like this type of scent to appreciate it and its not for everyone. Most men won't like this for themselves.

At first sniff I wasn't sure if I had made a mistake but I became enamored with it. It it a beautiful perfume. Dare I say, a dupe for Memo Paris Sintra. Based on the notes list they are not, but I did a side by side comparison and I am taken aback. I think the tonka bean in Musk 01 renders it slightly creamer than Sintra. Both perfumes remind me of the simple syrup I make with Rose Water and Orange Blossom Water for Kanafeh. This perfume is delicious and more suited for Spring and Summer. For the price tag I think it’s ok to blind buy as I did.

A strong orange blossom opening note but drying down to a soft feminine musk with no skanky nuances (thankfully). Although you can get whiffs of the orange blossom note throughout the duration of the perfume it is subtle and well blended with the musk. A very clean musky floral scent which is not the detergent type. I dont clearly smell the vanilla or tonka bean notes nor the bergamote which I imagine are playing supporting roles in this perfume and are not the main characters. A safe blind buy if you like the described scent profile.

Great fragrance all around. Strong clean laundry, musky smell that lasts well over clothes. It’s amazing to use as a base layer for other fragrances. I’m new to this whole collection game, and I’m skeptical about taking risks with certain influencers, but this one is great and hard to go wrong with. I will say though, specifically on its own, it’s not the greatest fragrance and there’s definitely better ones out there. 8.25/10

Wore this today on a winter hike and it was soooo pretty I am going to need a full bottle of this. This is very orange blossom heavy which is one of my favourite notes but still this is absolutely stunning. I could get little whiffs all the way through my hike and could still smell it when I got home several hours later. However it wasn’t overpowering and I felt just right for the occasion

Full force obsessed with this. It’s so soapy and clean with lovely white floral that linger for hours. It’s such and easy blind but if you like a musky clean fragrance. I am now on the hunt for all 3 of the musks from this line... the Swiss Arabian Heritage collection is outstanding so far for me. I have Rose 01, Vanilla 01, and Musk 07, Musk 74 is on the way.

Smell is decent, but this is definitely not unisex, very feminine, and the musk is very prominent. As a scent, it reminds me of clean laundry, it is alright but this is not a mass appealing scent tbh. Later edit this has matured very nicely and my gf wears it in the summer. On her this is a 10/10. Long lasting and strong clean scent.

The musk combined with white florals notes embodies the scent of a little kitten wearing a crown of orange blossoms. It is dainty, innocent, and dreamy. No spice, purely blissful musk, soft white flowers, and airy vanilla. This is the girl you only come across once in your lifetime.

I love this one. I've had this one for a few months now and wear it often. A beautiful, orange blossom Musk. Definitely femine as I could not see a man wearing this. It lasts quite a while. I do believe SA has come out with an oil to match, in looking for it.

clean, soapy, fresh, elegantly musky. think of the cleanest luxury bathroom you can imagine, the clean smell of the expensive tiles and marble architecture. that’s this one of the silkiest musk fragrances on the market. if you like elegance this is for you

Soapy clean combo of a clothes softener and sunscreen, EASY daily wearable and imo all year rounder. It starts with more softener and goes more into sunscreeny warm the longer it stays on skin. Straight STUNNER and great longevity too, around the 8h mark

An absolute bomb of powdery white florals. It’s so comforting and fluffy. I sprayed this on myself before bed and my pillow has smelled like this until the next wash. She’s powerful! Clean. It doesn’t smell anything like musk therapy like I’ve read.

Musk 01... WOW! This is beautifully blended and stunning on my skin. I'm an orange blossom fan and this is just so gorgeous. I get compliments every time I wear it and it lasts forever on my skin. I bought 2 back up bottles! 🍊 Incredible💯

Super soft and clean scent, fells almost like cold soapy putty. It is very strong off the opening and can give slight headache if you spray a lot but the dry down is so calming and makes everyone around you feel relaxed.

Olivier Cresp + Swiss Arabian. I had to get it! And did not disappoint. Very very smooth blend, elegant, fruity musk. Amazing scent. For me, totally easy blind buy if you enjoy this profile. Top quality, beautiful ❤️

Contrary to the name, this is not THAT musk heavy. It's a predominantly orange blossom + citrus combo. Incredibly well blended for the price though. Would go great in summer and warm spring days.

I am soooo amazed by this fragrance and love it sooo much. Backed up a bottle already before finishing the 1st. Great longevity on my skin.
