Timeless white musk with a flaw
Most of this scent is really nice: Classic, clean white musk, sparkling aldehydes, sweet almonds and vanilla, and a bit of a woodruff vibe due to the combination of coumarin and freshness.
I find it rather timeless for something that was issued in the 70s. Soft and fluffy with that reliable, skin-like musk note that has been in drugstore fragrance and oils for decades. I like this kind of musk much better than some of the sharp, abrasive musks in recent creations.

Unfortunately there is one thing that really throws me off: This has an unpleasant, dusty overtone to my nose that keeps me from enjoying the rest of the scent. Somehwat like the smell in old basements or attics. Ugh, what a pity! It gets better after a couple of hours, but I can't deal with it for that long.
Therefore I'm all in all not that impressed, but I imagine that it might smell better on others.

Delicate and fleeting
There he is now, the fragrance that is 9 years older than me - and thus I am already no longer a young plant.

I smell Walmeister extremely gladly, just when he is accompanied delicately powdered. In this context, "Musc" is often mentioned here.
So I looked around here in the souk, and a full bottle for small money acquired.
When he was there, I tried him of course immediately - and even with his 50 years he can what! It is immediately perceptible to me this delicate, powdered woodruff note. Gentle as a sweet woodland fairy in a delicate breeze. A bit of almond scent and little white flowered star umbels accompanies this delightful arrangement. I like this fragrance so much, it caresses the senses.
Now if the sillage and the durability were a little more pithy, it would be unbeatable for me.
So it remains with the small, translucent woodruff fairy, which is a fleeting dinglein. But enchanting it is anyway.

For Adults
Till now I tested several musc-scents. Usually they are a little bit like baby-powder and like body creams like Nivea and similars.
But "Musc" by Réminiscence" ist a very serious version of a musc scent. It starts with a whiff of citrus which gives way for a woody vanilla without pudding note. The musc is following. A short period "Musc" seems to become a gourmand through an almond accord. I'm not sure, but as well tonka and/or heliotrop note could be added. And then I am smelling a woody and not to dark patchouli. It is not listed. But I did not use any perfume with patchouli today and I'm now testing after my shower. I do not use fragranted body-care.
"Musc" is a very pleasent but tangy and woody but moderate creamy perfume for every day without blossoms. It will not disgrace the user by smelling similar to baby creams. It is for adults only.

It's nice but I find other clean musks (Pure or Parisian Musc) more interesting. Not great longevity which can be expected from EdT.
