Zimaya 2023 EDP
Musk Is Great
Zimaya Musk Is Great is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Musk Is Great opens with Bergamot and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Magnolia and Blackcurrant, and dries down to a base of Musk and Sandalwood. It lasts about 6 to 10 hours on skin, fills a room and is best in spring and autumn. Zimaya's Musk Is Great carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.
Musk Is Great is an absolute Marmite of a scent. Prepare for a harsh, synthetic, and metallic opening that many find repulsive, but if you can push through, the drydown offers a clean, creamy, animalic musk and sandalwood that's often described as addictive. Absolutely not a safe blind buy.What our verdicts mean →

Our estimate of scent similarity, calculated from published notes. How we score it
Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the pyramid as published, not a timing claim. Each note's timing follows its listed tier, where it usually sits across many published pyramids (from ScentPrism) and its vapour pressure. A note comes through as the notes usually listed before it fade, judged from how other pyramids order the same pair. The thickness of a ribbon shows the note's share of what is left on the skin, which tracks how strongly it smells, because odour thresholds rise with vapour pressure. The shares come from how prominent wearers vote each note. It is a simple model, not a measurement.
