Musc Intense

by Patricia de Nicolaï

Nicolaï Parfumeur-Créateur Musc Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Patricia de Nicolaï. Musc Intense opens with Rose, Pear, and Galbanum, settles into a heart of Rose, Violet, Jasmine, and Carnation, and dries down to a base of Civet, Sandalwood, Musk, and Amber. Nicolaï Parfumeur-Créateur's Musc Intense carries a Favourite verdict, a musky-led wear.

Musc Intense is Nicolai's intensely divisive take on a classic musky rose. It's either a warm, elegant hug that evokes nostalgia for some, or a soapy, plastic-smelling mess for others. Sample before you commit to this tricky beast, as skin chemistry plays a huge role here.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter
Also Works:
Summer

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its soft sillage and 'clean' character make it ideal for the office or casual wear, as noted by several reviewers. It's too subdued for a bold formal statement or sports, and while pleasant, it lacks a strong romantic allure for dates unless a subtle, comforting vibe is desired.

About

Opens with a juicy, bright burst of pear cutting through a Turkish rose, underpinned by a green hint of galbanum. The heart blossoms with a powdery bouquet of violet and carnation, mingling with more rose and jasmine. The dry down is a clean, soapy musk, warmed by a touch of civet, amber, and creamy sandalwood.
