Which Should You Buy?
Musc K is a prime example of a 'your skin but better' scent, a clean musk that's sparking furious debate. Fans adore its luxurious, subtle projection, comparing it to a refined Glossier You. Detractors, however, find it overhyped, overpriced, and for some, it even evokes unsettling notes like "elephant" or "carpet deodoriser".
Prepare for a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Ambre Royal is a deeply divisive ambroxan bomb, sparking adoration from some and giving headaches to others. Definitely sample this one before splashing out, especially if you're sensitive to synthetics.
