Ellis Brooklyn Blond Musk is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Hamid Merati-Kashani. Blond Musk opens with Water Lily, Bergamot, and Violet, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Ambrettolide, Musk, and Amber. Ellis Brooklyn's Blond Musk carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a bit of a tease. Blond Musk is a pleasant, clean musk that's simply too faint and short-lived for its price tag. It's nice, but don't expect it to last longer than a fleeting thought.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its extremely light and inoffensive nature makes it perfect for office wear or casual settings where strong projection isn't desired. However, its poor longevity severely limits its suitability for dates or formal events where more presence is typically expected.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Blond Musk opens with a whisper of fresh water lily and bright bergamot, softened by a delicate violet haze. As it settles, a clean, powdery bouquet of rose, jasmine, and orchid emerges, never overwhelming, but rather gently floral. The base is an airy mix of ambrettolide and musk, creating a 'barely there' skin scent that feels fresh from the shower.
