Home / Notes / White Musk
White Musk 115 White musk is a perfumer's term for clean, soft musks. These are modern aroma molecules, not natural materials, and they smell airy, smooth and gently powdery, like fresh cotton or skin after a shower. The word white points to brightness and cleanliness rather than a specific ingredient. White musks are less animalic than the heavier musks used in old perfumes. Perfumers use them to add softness and a sense of closeness, and they work with almost anything, from citrus and flowers to woods and amber. They tend to be a quiet blur that smooths the edges of a scent.
White musk sits in the base in most fragrances here, giving a clean, smooth, skin-like finish under the livelier notes.
