Doesn't live up to the hype
Narciso Rodriguez for Her EDP, is quite possibly one of the muskiest perfumes I've ever experienced.

This fragrance tends to be warm, subtly sweet, feminine, clean, and of course, musky. For some, Narciso Rodriguez for Her is animalistic and sexy. In my opinion, this fragrance is musky in a clean and old-fashioned sense. Don't get me wrong, this is not a scent just for 'old ladies'. It just doesn't scream 'sex' to me.

Occasionally I am anosmic to musk, so there are some moments when I can't smell Narciso Rodriguez. Every now and then I catch a subtle whiff of this scent which is certainly pleasant, but not to my personal tastes.

This fragrance smells dusty on my skin. It makes me think of a dark, crowded attic that hasn't seen the light in years. This relation is possibly due to my connection of musk to closed-up, suffocating, deserted houses.

This fragrance is not all bad, it's just disappointing due to all the hype. I don't sense many floral notes in the composition unfortunately. It's mostly musky woods to my nose.

Even in the EDP concentration, the sillage and lasting strength are rather average. I can understand Narciso Rodriguez for Her and its appeal, however I believe it is very much an acquired taste, that I don't have.

Sweeter and muskier than SJP Lovely
NARCISO RODRIGUEZ FOR HER (NRFR) is a floral woody musk. I'm on the fence about NRFR. I can clearly pick out the vetiver, and the fragrance is a bit musky all around. It's also by one of my fave noses, Nagel. So far, so good. However, it's just too darn sweet on me. It's the orange blossom. My skin amps up orange blossom, and I just don't have the patience to let it settle down. Not a scrubber but only wearable in small doses sprayed as a mist walk-through.

I understand the comparisons to SJP LOVELY, but MRFR and LOVELY are quite different fragrances. NRFR is muskier & sweeter with a very noticeable vetiver note and white floral accord (orange blossom). LOVELY is more woody, softer, cleaner, powdery and easier to wear, imo. NRFR tends to the femme side, LOVELY leans a tad to the masculine. Both are quite good, but I prefer LOVELY. NRFH can simply be too sweet due to the orange blossom.

Una sorpresa muy positva
Un aroma muy agradable y fácil de llevar, tanto de día como para salidas nocturnas: cremoso, suave, floral con un ligero toque de almizcle. Me ha sorprendido muy gratamente, igualmente me ha gustado para la temporada de calor pues no me resulta agobiante.

The Sultan's Concubine
Yesterday I was very inspired, excited, horny and an animal scent like Kouros was perfect for my mood. But things change quickly, and today I feel meek as a bit of lamb, innocent, harmless, and naive. So, which perfume best suits my mood, if not Narciso Rodriguez for Her. The pastel pale pink bottle with its scent so soft, musky, and feminine that it can make you fall in love every time.

For Her revolves around Egyptian moss and is classified as a modern chypre. Synthetic musk emanates soft, warm, captivating, and ultra-sensual tones. On the other hand, Egyptian musk is a more robust and charming musk, which offers vanilla tones, and softens it. Here, Egyptian musk brings outgoing sensuality that blends harmoniously with other oriental ingredients. My nose was intrigued. Something very floral, but most delicately and discreetly, warm, meaty, juicy, and thick. And so I decided to try it.

For me, For Her is the olfactory equivalent of an ancient abbey adorned for a wedding. The floor, walls, columns, and roof are covered with green vegetable moss, while the central nave is sprinkled with fragrant rose petals. Next to the sandalwood benches are placed baskets filled with juicy peaches and white flowers. Each basket was handwoven with threads taken from the roots of the vetiver. A smoky, incensed, and amber note hovers in the air, warmed by the sun's rays penetrating the large windows. And the gracious bride strolls, wrapped in her perfect pale pink chiffon dress, almost powdery, radiant, smiling. Her fragrance dances with light, sparkling steps that evoke the vibrant movement of the textured fabric in her top notes. When it caresses my skin, a mantle of smoky and incensed rose oozes and expands, enveloping my body and everything around me.

For Her, Eau de Parfum retains musk as a heart note, just like its other scents, adding a creamy floral powder that blends the warm, earthy notes of a rose with honey. The nose added peach and rose to make this fragrance genuinely velvety. On me, it is first of all warm and delicate, with the slightest hint of seductive spice. The squad does not explode very clearly and does not dominate. Instead, it mixes with peach and amber, with a soft touch of patchouli, creating the most beautiful ensemble that turns heads.
The mix of peach and rose first awakens the sense of smell, followed by the incursion of patchouli, musk, which warms the mind, continuing to be agitated by sandalwood's essential oil senses fully awakened. In the warmth, there is still sweetness. Meanwhile, a veil of soft amber and wood adds mystery and depth to the composition. I love the dry rose notes combined with a noticeable scent of musk and sandalwood. There is nothing pink gourmand. It blends into your skin and warms up quickly, leaving you with a charming aroma of soft rose and creamy musk.

The white musk accord gives warm flowers - seriously warm, like fragrant petals on a hot day - a slightly woody and sexy edge. Still, the muskiness is clean and pretty, not incredibly sexy, so it has a place in both boudoir and cubicle. The scent persists for hours. It's already got into most of my clothes, which I appreciate. For me, it is a perfume of the cold, an office perfume, a romantic walk by the sea in winter, and a feminine evening in the city's scent. The smell is not sweet with the critical ingredient of musk, which brings a feeling of warmth, blends with the smell of rose and peach and some other elements to create a distinctive aroma that is not taken for granted.

This review bases upon a 100 ml (3.4 fl. oz.) bottle I have owned since January 2021.

I prefer the EDT
I wasn't too impressed with this one, I found it harsher than the EDT, more floral, less musky, less breathy, less sensual, and that may actually work for a lot of people, so definitely try it, but between the two, I choose the EDT.

One of the rare patchoulis I enjoy, thanks to the musky rose toning it down. Pretty powdery scent with good longevity.

One of the few roses I can tolerate, but the musk sits sourly on my skin for way too long. Per the reviews, I'll try the EDT.
