L'Artisan Parfumeur Mure et Musc is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1978, created by Jean-François Laporte. Mure et Musc opens with Lemon, Orange, Mandarin, and Basil, settles into a heart of Red Berries and Blackberry, and dries down to a base of Musk and Oakmoss. L'Artisan Parfumeur's Mure et Musc carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one sparks debate. Some find it a 'seventies drugstore musk' or too masculine, others adore its innovative clean yet sensual berry and musk profile. It's a trailblazer for its time, but don't expect a powerful performance.

About

Imagine a burst of crisp basil and zesty citrus, like a cool breeze through a summer orchard. This quickly mellows, revealing the star of the show: a natural, slightly tart blackberry note, not jammy or saccharine. It all rests on a soft, clean musk base, underpinned by a hint of earthy oakmoss, creating a fresh, almost soapy intimacy that lingers close to the skin.
