Musky Perfumes Are the Most Versatile Tool in My Fragrance Wardrobe – Meet My Favourite Scents

Meanwhile, Emma South, fragrance and lifestyle expert at Jo Malone London, shares that musk was 'originally sourced from animals, it's now entirely replaced by plant extracts or synthetic recreations.' 'Consequently, 'musk' is elusive to pin down, there are many interpretations ranging from airy with hints of powder to deep, animalic and amber-like,' she adds. Emma also shares that 'each musk has its own nuance' and that it has the ability to 'enhance the scent trail.' What kind of notes best complement musk? 'Musk pairs well with a wide range of floral and powdery notes, which blend seamlessly to enhance each other,' shares Thibaud. 'At Maison Crivelli, we often use musks as a drydown, combined with vanilla and leather. They allow us to highlight textures and prolong the trail of the perfume,' he explains. 'You'll find it in the background of some of our best-sellers such as Hibiscus Mahajad, Oud Maracuja and Tubéreuse Astrale, where it brings roundness, elegance, and a tactile sensuality that anchors the composition while amplifying its emotional impact,' Thibaud says. According to Emma, musk pairs effortlessly with 'delicate, dewy florals', such as Jo Malone London's Wild Bluebell cologne. 'Whilst deeper, magnetic musks can give even more gravitas to incense notes or create the perfect foil for the iridescence of citrus,' she adds. How to best layer musky perfumes Emma suggests 'layering a minimal, airy musky scent with a soft citrus such as bergamot.' 'Alternatively, use musk to illuminate rich balmy white florals and let them take flight, this makes a mesmerizing way to wear musk into the evening,' she explains. Thibaud agrees: 'I would pair musks with fresh notes such as citrus or peony, or with soft powdery notes like violet or iris. These combinations create contrast and reveal new dimensions of both the musk and the supporting notes.' What are the challenges of creating a musky scent? 'As with any formula, true artistry lies in the balance of ingredients and musk can make or break a fragrance,' shares Emma. 'I have heard perfumers refer to musks as the triangles of the orchestra (if a bright and shimmering musk) or the garlic in cuisine (if rich and animalic),' she says. 'Musk requires a high level of technical skill to be handled well. One challenge is to avoid a flat or overly linear structure, especially since musks are often very diffusive yet subtle,' explains Thibaud. 'The goal is to blend them elegantly so they feel both complex and soft, with long-lasting qualities that stay close to the skin without losing their character,' he says.

Scented Escapes: Perfumes That Smell Like Summer Escapes

Picture this: you're spritzing a transparent mist that unfurls like a citrus‑kissed Mediterranean coast where terracotta walls absorb the warmth of the day. There's an undeniable magic in how a scent can instantly transport us to distant shores, sun-drenched terraces, or balmy evening strolls. Nothing sets the tone for sunshine adventures quite like a good summer fragrance. Summer fragrances are like linen on the skin — light, breathable, and effortlessly elegant. These scents lean on crisp citrus, salty marine accords, sun-drenched florals, or dewy greens. The best ones are typically citrusy, aquatic, green, or floral-forward, with bright top notes like bergamot, neroli, or grapefruit that uplift rather than overwhelm. Scent is our most primal connection to place and self. The right one lingers like a postcard in the mind. But, heat tends to amplify and evaporate perfume faster, making longevity a concern. With a higher concentration of fragrance oils, Eau de parfums (EDPs) typically linger longer on the skin than eau de toilettes (EDTs). Look for compositions with a solid base—woods, musks, or ambergris—that can anchor the brighter top notes. Citrus-forward scents often fade quickly, but those balanced with creamy or resinous bases (like sandalwood or vetiver) tend to endure through long, sun-drenched days. For best results, spritz on moisturised skin or use a matching body lotion to help the scent linger. Choose perfumes that feel like a breeze: airy, refreshing, and mood-boosting–ones that are a form of escapism. It can be a way to chase the world and travel—even when you're grounded. Discover these destination-inspired fragrances fragrances—perfect for summer escapes and that out-of-office auto-reply. Loewe If you could bottle joy, it might just smell like Paula's Ibiza. Think a juicy, fruity fragrance with notes of coconut cream, cedarwood, and the brand's own accord of Spanish rockrose wildflower. It's the kind of perfume that begs to be worn with oversized sunglasses and no plans. Destination: Ibiza, Spain LOEWE Paula's Ibiza Cosmic, AED 450 Maison Francis Kurkdjian There's a crisp, radiant clarity to Aqua Vitae, like drinking lemonade under the Lisbon sun, and the scent of cypress drifts in from the hills. It opens with lemon, fresh bergamot from Calabria elegantly blend with a trio of spices, grounding the brightness with a soft, sensual finish. It's clean but complex, a fragrance that feels like a secret escape—even when you're just running errands. Destination: Capri or the Amalfi Coast, Italy Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Vitae Forte, AED 985 Tom Ford Clean but sensual, fresh but indulgent. Tom Ford's Neroli Portofino is a tailored escape into the Italian Riviera, all bergamot, neroli, surprising floral notes and amber undertones. One spritz and you're transported to the shimmering turquoise coves of Liguria, hair tousled by sea spray, heels kicked off beside a bottle of Vermentino wine.
