Musky
60 fragrances with this accord
Family Musky & powdery
Musk, powder, cleanliness, “skin after a shower” — not a family in the article, but a notable group in the catalogue.
Today the musky accord means white musks: synthetic molecules (Helvetolide, Galaxolide, Ambrettolide and others) that replaced animal musk, which perfumery abandoned long ago. Its plant source is ambrette seed. Musk smells of clean warm skin, fresh linen and a touch of powder.
It is almost always in the base: it makes a fragrance softer, “skin-like” and long-lasting, and binds the other notes together. Musky compositions feel intimate and close to the body.
