About

Musk + Instinct opens with a lively, almost minty blast of green apple and bright lemon, quickly mellowing into a lush, aromatic heart of violet leaf, forest floor, and sage. It’s distinctly verdant, reminiscent of a mossy woodland after rain. The drydown settles into an earthy, woody base of vetiver and sandalwood, underpinned by a persistent, clean musk that keeps things grounded and effortlessly masculine.
