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.

Kim Turnbull puts on brave face as she returns to work while Romeo jets to Paris with his mates amid family feud
KIM Turnbull, the girlfriend of Romeo Beckham, headed back to work after becoming embroiled in the Beckham family feud. The model-turned-DJ, 24, was ever the professional as she performed a set at Maison Crivelli's launch of its new fragrance, Saffron Secret. 7 Kim Turnbull at the launch of Maison Crivelli's 'Safran Secret in London Credit: Getty 7 Romeo Beckham and Kim were first spotted together in November Credit: Getty 7 Kim performed a DJ set at the Maisaon Crivelli party Credit: Instagram 7 It came after she was reportedly at the centre of a Beckham family feud Credit: Instagram Clad in black jeans, a shiny black top and matching leather biker jacket, Kim posed for the cameras before hitting the DJ deck. Her return to work comes after it was revealed Romeo's older brother, Brooklyn, allegedly skipped their famous dad, David Beckham's 50th birthday party because of her attendance. Brooklyn reportedly refused to attend his dad's star-studded bash with wife, Nicola Peltz, if Kim was there, because the pair used to date. When David and wife, Victoria Beckham refused, Brooklyn and Nicola jetted back to the U.S. Kim's return to work came as Romeo, 22, headed to Paris for a quick 24-hour trip with his friends to win Paris Saint Germain beat Arsenal in the Champions League semi-final. Romeo posted plenty of snaps of his trip to the French capital, including at the Louvre Pyramid outside the famous museum. The young couple were first linked in November when Romeo posted affectionate photos of the pair on his Instagram. Kim comes from a creative family — her father Alex is a DJ and the founder of influential hip-hop label Ronin Records and her grandfather, William Turnbull, was a renowned Scottish sculptor whose work was displayed at London's Tate Gallery. Kim began her modelling career in 2017, working with major brands including Tommy Hilfiger, Marc Jacobs, Miu Miu and Rimmel London. During the Covid-19 pandemic, she expanded into DJing, going on to perform at events for fashion houses such as Gucci. Brooklyn Beckham returns to social media after snubbing his dad David's 50th birthday celebrations amid 'feud' For his 50th birthday celebrations on May 4, 2025, David and Victoria were joined by Romeo, 22, his girlfriend Kim, younger son Cruz, 20, his partner Jackie Apostel, 29, and daughter Harper, 13. Despite the ex-England footballer being surrounded by most of his immediate family, Victoria and David's eldest son Brooklyn, 26, and his Nicola, 30, were nowhere to be seen — adding to speculation of a family feud. Kim dated Romeo's brother Brooklyn and this is where the root of the Beckham family feud is meant to have started. Romeo's big brother is said to have questioned Kim's 'motives' for starting a relationship with his younger sibling. Brooklyn is said to have felt uncomfortable that his ex Kim would be in attendance. But the blame is being levelled at Nicola, which has upset Brooklyn, according to a source. They said: 'She has never told him what to do and has been nothing but supportive — she's a loyal wife.' 7 While Kim was working, Romeo headed to Paris for the day Credit: Instagram/romeobeckham 7 David and Victoria Beckham with three of their four children and respective partners Credit: David Beckham/Instagram 7 Kim used to date Romeo's brother Brooklyn, who is now married to actress, Nicola Peltz Credit: AFP
