The Body Shop Red Musk is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Corinne Cachen. Red Musk opens with Pepper, settles into a heart of Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Musk and Tobacco. The Body Shop's Red Musk carries a Favourite verdict, a spicy-led wear.

This one's a divisive throwback - some find it an addictive, warm hug while others are put off by its perceived masculinity and weak performance. If you're after a spicy, musky scent that leans unisex, and you don't mind reapplying, Red Musk might just be your jam.

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.

Its warm, spicy, and musky character makes it ideal for casual wear and dates, as it creates an inviting aura. However, the moderate Sillage and variable longevity, coupled with its distinct, sometimes masculine lean, means it's less suited for formal events or the office where subtlety is often preferred.

About

Red Musk opens with a brisk, clean pepper punch that quickly mellows into a heart of warm, inviting cinnamon. The dry-down reveals a soft, almost leathery tobacco mingled with a prominent, cosy musk. It's an intriguing blend of warm spice and earthy depth, with a subtle powdery sweetness that keeps it from being too sharp.
