Describing this fragrance is a bit like trying to grasp a cloud.
It took me a long time to form an opinion about Pure Musc, and to be honest, I primarily took a long time to allow myself to potentially change that opinion again.
When I wear it, there is primarily nothing there, just a feeling of being somehow enveloped. It is very soft. If you try to smell it intentionally, it evades you. You have to be patient with it and let it come to you on its own.
For me, this fragrance has little development. From beginning to end, the floral-white heart is present. The white florals do not come across as heavy here, but rather relaxed and delicate. These are surrounded by a voluminous cloud of musk. The sillage is moderate, the projection rather weak. I find the longevity quite good, especially on clothing, but I can't quite assess it on the skin.
This fragrance is both elegant and cozy at the same time. But it is also difficult for me to interpret, which is why I couldn't build an emotional connection, even though I often reached for it in retrospect. I particularly liked it for productive days when I am around many people and working through my to-do lists. A perfect office scent.
Now the generous decant is empty. A repurchase is not planned for the time being, but who knows... you always meet again in life, as they say.
I feel the same way about it. There's something I love about this scent, but also something I hate. I get compliments on it, but I can't smell it shortly after spraying it. I like it and I don't. Yet, I've almost finished a 100ml bottle. I'm wondering if I like it enough to buy a new one, or if I don't like it that much and should just let it go. It's a kind of love-hate relationship :/
