Like a Muff

Warm and fuzzy right from the start. Yes, musk, no question about it. Clean, but not soapy.
Creamy, a light hint of vanilla or tonka and a somewhat indefinable freshness. And all of this right in the top note, just two drops - !
Old-lady musk? I remain undecided.
No flowers, just creamy-powdery musk, heliotrope or almond or vanilla or tonka, something like that. But it never gets too sweet.
Musk a bit steamy, occasionally piercing through the cleanliness into the nose.
Not for summer. Not loud, but with strength and endurance. Certainly enough sillage. For AugustA, almost a bit too much of a good thing. Maybe I just don’t have a particularly musk-affine nose...
It remains fuzzy, smells a bit animalistic, but quite pleasant, no big cats or anything like that, more like a cat or a rabbit or something. Like a muff for the hands, into which you occasionally press your nose.
Soft fur, lively, with vanilla. And a bit of closet.
Well, who feels addressed?

You described it just the way I smell it too. Exactly!

That was actually complicated.

Muff, fur - those were exactly the keywords I noted during the test *nod* Unfortunately, that made the scent a no-go for me, even though I usually really like musk.

My review below is quite different from yours. I tested it twice, carefully, with a long time in between the two tests. Do you have any explanation for that?

Musk for the skin or musk for the hand, that's the question here ;-) When it gets cold, I'll do the comparison test. Thanks for the suggestion!

Here I am! I feel addressed too...one of my favorite scents. I don't wear it every day, but when I do, I find it somehow special-in a good way ;))

I feel addressed, even before, but now even more so - I've wanted to test this for a long time. And very, very quietly, I’ll whisper to you that sometimes in winter I also wear a muff, but nobody must know that, because in my big city, it’s not well seen and is only barely tolerated for Russian tourists.
