M.Micallef Royal Muska is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Jean-Claude Astier. Royal Muska opens with Rose and Peach, settles into a heart of Woody, and dries down to a base of Musk. M.Micallef's Royal Muska carries a Favourite verdict, a musky-led wear.

Royal Muska is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a 'sex in a bottle' clean musk; for others, a harsh, animalic disappointment or simply 'Dove soap'. If you're anosmic to certain musks, you might be left scratching your head at the hype. Sample first!

About

Royal Muska opens with a fleeting whisper of delicate rose and sweet peach, quickly giving way to the star of the show: a complex, dominant musk. This isn't a simple white musk; it's a multi-faceted beast, oscillating between powdery, woody, and even slightly animalic facets, settling into a clean yet sensual skin scent as it dries down. Don't expect a fruity floral, this is all about the musk.
