What is Musk?
Musk, a cornerstone of perfumery, is known for its potent, complex, and long-lasting aroma. Its origins span both animal and botanical sources, each contributing to the unique identity of musk oils.
Musk Varieties: Animal and Botanical Origins
Animal Musk: Historically derived from the musk gland of the musk deer, this type of musk carries a deep, rich, and powerful aroma. However, due to ethical and environmental concerns, we choose not to use animal-derived musk in our perfumes.
Botanical Musk: Modern perfumery has embraced plant-based musk as a cruelty-free alternative. Extracted from natural sources like ambrette seeds or counterparts that replicate the olfactory profile, botanical musk delivers the warmth and depth of traditional musk in a sustainable way.
The Difference Between Black Musk and White Musk
Black Musk
Black musk is known for its depth and intensity, exuding a dark, sensual aroma that envelops the wearer in warmth and mystery. It often has earthy, woody, and slightly spicy undertones, making it a favorite in oriental and unisex fragrances. Black musk is bold and assertive, designed to make a lasting impression.
White Musk
In contrast, white musk offers a clean, powdery, and slightly sweet aroma, evoking a sense of purity and refinement. Its understated elegance makes it suitable for everyday wear and universally appealing.
