Musk Is Great

Clean,smooth,Perfectly animalic musk scent profile with lovely florals and the powdery almost milky warmth of sandalwood noted go crazy on this one. Smells high quality expensive and lovely for its price range. At first spray definitely the Citruses hit and they sorta create this musky citrus combo we’re all familiar with which is an either a love or hate typa thing in many musk centric fragrances. Initially the drydown is very sweet musk with the perfect amount of animalic accords and then the sandalwood just hits but it doesn’t overpower the musk notes it merely compliments them very well. What makes Musk Is Great special is that it’s a cool type of musk that works in any weather and season and time of day lol. It’s a super musk oriented fragrance so be aware of what you’re getting into. There is a synthetic metallic accord in the fragrance that’s very much in the backdrops during the drydown and post fry down so watch out for that I don’t think it ruins the scent profile overall because I only believe it adds to sensual feeling of the musk that still projects crazy. There’s a black currant note listed here which if it actually is there then I can confirm there’s this tart robust fruity accord that blends well with the citruses in the background because the musk is the star of this fragrance of course but it’s pretty noticeable. This is 100% repurchase worthy I owned a bottle in 2021 which was mad in longevity and projection if you don’t feel the same maybe you need to macerate it to save it from reformulation. I know that the whole "last all day"comment is either a delusion or a gimmick most of the times but: this is one of those fragrances which actually last a whole day with 6 sprays or more at the same time stays on clothes till the very next day. Projects crazy 8-10 hours of strong projection that starts chilling down at the 6th hour-ish Actual longevity is like 17 hours minimum with the batch I got. Sillage is like 4-6 ft for a stretch. Amazing for layering scents. Could give you a headache. They’ve used a very lovely iso-E-Super musk accord combo for this one which promises a very accurate musk scent profile but I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s even 0.0005% real musk in it anyways. A lot of middle eastern vibes but still it’s comparatively mass appealing. I’m looking forward to repurchasing this one and macerating it anyhow to see how stronger it can Get. Moreover it’s an all time scent. Mind you it’s very overpowering And the best from zimaya blends performance wise.

Maturation is key on this frag. It's a personal skin scent. I enjoyed the scent after clearing the automizer and a proper 3 months of maturation. It's a gentle citrus, fresh musk. Longevity is good, no sillage. I wear this one for doctor appointments, volunteering at the library, etc. If you work in such environments it might be a good choice. It is a relaxing scent. The presentation is lovely, and giftable at a fantastic price point.

Musk is Great is one of my favorites. It comes across as dense, yet lightly fresh. The citrus and florals are not overly present and there is a smooth powdery presence. The fresh, moderate to heavy projection lasts for quite awhile. It is an excellent hangout fragrance but can be pulled off in intimate situations as well. I also wear it to freshen up after a hit sweaty work day. I really enjoy this one~

Once scent settles on your skin, it continues to smell nice for a long time as a mint-musk scent. The sweet smell upon first use not very attractive or may repulsive. After 1 hour, the musk scent appears in its best form. I advise. 7/10

I can only assume that most people writing extremely negative things about this are judging it solely by the opening. That first stage is metallic-sweet in a way that feels hardcore — sharp, screechy, and not of this world. Unfortunately, the most irritating part can linger surprisingly long, so your overall impression will depend heavily on how much patience and tolerance you have for that. The problem is not only the opening, though, but also that this is not the type of fluffy, clean musk people expect from the name and from the comparisons. Instead of a soft comfort scent, you get something cold and aggressive. It shifts right after the opening burns off. Once settled, it reads as musk-first, with powdery, creamy, milky, and sandalwood notes. It's a bit lactonic and animalistic. Performance is strong. For most of the wear, the projection is extreme, and the longevity is very good as well. Today, I oversprayed it and basically turned myself into a floral-green air freshener tree, which makes sense because those aspects are in here too. As a veteran in going to every possible medical specialist, I consider it nonsense to call it medicinal. Reading reviews of this, I get the impression that we're describing something completely different. This is probably one of the most overhated perfumes I've seen, but I guess it works great as a super unsafe blind-buy. It's a high-impact, polarizing musk with a notoriously harsh, tennis-ball-like opening and a MUCH better drydown. As a budget oddity, it's fine. If you want something in a similar vein but better executed, get Ajmal Musk Silk Supreme instead — you'll probably be satisfied, and the quality there is definitely higher.
