Misk Al'Jism (Body Musk) Abdul Samad Al Qurashi
8
Very helpful Review
Not just clean, but pure! :-)
What more can I say about this great white musk?
So much soap and soooo much beautiful soap at once ;)
This white musk from ASAQ is advertised as a purely plant-based musk according to zahras.com, and that's probably the reason for the price.... 3ml is available for just under €20.
When I smell it, it reminds me a lot of laundry detergent... of fabric softener, and there’s also a slightly sour, chlorinated note that stands out. Additionally, I think I can perceive a slightly metallic note in the background, a complete, soapy white musk indeed.... I love it :)
I have no comparison to well-known white musks like those from The Body Shop, so I can't say much about that aspect. Nevertheless, the Body Musk or Misku-l Jism from ASAQ will certainly be of a higher quality than that from The Body Shop.
The consistency of the fragrance is also very interesting; it’s almost a milky lump in the bottle, very firm and a bit sticky.
I find it hard to use further words for this scent, as it is quite a simple fragrance (just white musk) and describing it is a matter of individual perception.
I can imagine wearing it on anyone and for any occasion, whether at work (in the office), in the evening, or in my free time; it’s just a very universal scent! Definitely unisex without leaning towards the feminine or masculine side!
Even though the price of around €80/12ml is a bit high, you get high-quality, pure musk oil for it, which is definitely worth every cent.
I give ASAQ 100% for this! Even though the longevity (on the skin about 8~10 hours) is not as strong as its "stronger brother" (Misk Mutasalik, which has a stronger animalistic note and is therefore also more noticeable for longer), the Body Musk is such a beautiful feel-good scent that I also like to use for sleeping ;)
Unfortunately, my 3ml bottle is slowly running out... need.... new... STUFF! :)
Anyone who likes white musk and wants to test this one should be prepared for some "budget breaks" in their account, as this scent is addictive and wears off quickly since you can't get enough of it :)
If someone really wants to test this Body Musk from ASAQ, they can go to the supermarket and find a shower cream from Palmolive: "Koko&Moisture Milk." When my sister brought this home, I thought: Wow, she found my favorite musk as a shower gel, and I just used it without asking... I didn't get in trouble for that ;)
It’s 99% the same scent; you just have to imagine the Body Musk in a higher concentration ;)

I had exactly the same scent impression when testing! Kudos for the comment. Unfortunately, I didn't like it much because it just smelled like laundry detergent on me.
