Urban Musk

I don't like it when perfume is described as "dirty", so I don't use that word in my reviews, but this is the ONE time I will make an exception because in this case it happens to be completely true. I applied Urban Musk without having read any reviews beforehand, and I wondered in my head if it was just my chemistry or if this perfume smelled like a goat's excrement. No joke. It smells like someone who just came home from their job of working at the children's petting zoo, and they dumped an expensive perfume on themselves rather than take a shower. I am "udderly" shocked by this most unexpected scent. Smells at first like a person's stale, bad breath. Reminds me of sitting on my great-aunt's lap as a kid and trying not to let her breathe on me. I don't notice any spice. The scent of the donkey pen dies down a little (not enough for some people, no doubt, as the salesperson told me that nobody ever buys this perfume)...and it suddenly becomes absolutely heavenly! I begin to smell jasmine. The musky sweetness is intoxicating. I would wear this out, but only after it's been on me for at least 30 minutes to give it time to mingle with my chemistry. Now us perfumistas may be used to these animalic scents, but the general public is not. So try before you buy, I can not stress that enough!

I agree with Poboijosh, I love this stuff! The immediate opening is very odd but once it settles it is fantastic! I am a musk fan so maybe that is what it takes. The first time I tried this I didn't give it a chance to develop and wrote it off as a no. Then later I decided to give it another shot because I love White Suede so much (and musk in general) and the second time was the charm! It smells so sexy and addicting about an hour into it. I have a feeling most people don't give it a chance because of the off putting opening. Not something to try on at the counter and make a decision within 15 minutes. I seem to like a lot of things that smell "barnyard" to others. I guess I need to start baaaaaa ing or sniffing butts or something....maybe live in a stable because I seem to like stuff that smells like donkeys and horses. But luckily for me, barnyard smells awesome so I should probably buy some cows and live happily ever after.

Yes, this fragrance should be rated X or at least the opening of it should be. The initial impression is that of someone who has doused themselves liberally in Chanel No. 5--it's the jasmine--then literally had a roll in the hay with someone in a barn. There is an earthiness that is very close to nature here. Then, it is over and all that is left is the most wonderful glow. The jasmine is soon overcome with a very smoky, smouldering musk. This is heaven. The first time I tried this I wasn't convinced. It was too primal, too carnal and just too filthy for a nice girl like me looking for a light, spring fragrance. Well, my inner rebel must have taken over because now I want to wear this every day. Not at night but during the day. To work. To the grocery store. Everywhere. The sexiness of this fragrance worked its magic on me and now all I want is more, more, more.

Simply spray it on and be transported to a world of beauty, happiness, and success. This perfume is designed to make you the most beautiful person around

I think Angelina below here really nailed it with her description, although it took me a long while for my nose to pick up it all. In the beginning it was just a cozy vanilla to me and I felt a bit naughty wearing a scent possibly provocative to some with its musk and all the dirtyish aimalistic notes, not knowing what the heck I smelled like to other people. Now for some reason after a couple of weeks I can smell the whole thing and REALLY LOVE it as a casual day scent. The poopy parts of it i get only if I smell the cap where residues gather up. Very high quality musk, and nobody I've asked thought it smelled bad, BO or sheeps poop. So happy I found this and will for sure buy another bottle so don't discontinue, please TF!
