Recently I received a bottle of the newest perfume oil from The Body Shop. I am of course talking about Black Musk,the sexy big sister of the much loved White Musk. Now i have been a fan of White Musk since I was 14 so was nervous to try the Black Musk in case it was too heady for me. I need not have worried,it is a stunning fragrance.
This fragrance is all about sensuality. Black Musk has a sweetness to it but it also has a darker more sensual side due to musk and woody notes.Even the packaging is sexy with black and hot pink labelling.
Perfume ,if you are not aware is made up of topnotes,middle notes and base notes.
The top notes are the scents that hit you as soon as you spray a perfume,they consist of small, light molecules that evaporate quickly. They form a person's initial impression of a perfume.In this case the top notes consist of bergamot,pear and pink pepper
The middle notes are also called the "heart notes".The scent of a perfume that emerges just before the top notes dissipate. Not surprisingly, the scent of middle note compounds is usually more mellow and "rounded." In this case the Middle notes consist of ylang-ylang and licorice
The base notes are the headier notes and the ones that linger longer on your skin. Base notes bring depth and solidity to a perfume and can be found on the skin up to 24hours after application. Base notes of black vanilla infused with musk,vetiver, and patchouli.
These notes all marry together to make this "Floriental" a delicious,sensual and quite frankly sexy scent,that I adore.
If you want to try it out for yourself it is €25.95 and is available from all Body Shop stores ,find your nearest store HERE
Till next time,
Love,
