Urban Musk
Description
Urban Musk opens on a soft note of pepper extracted by Co2, but the musky character is already there thanks to Turk’s-cap lily. Quickly, the fragrance becomes velvety (plum, honey) then warm. The slightly animal musky base evokes tonkin musk. The wake is more Oriental from benzoin with notes of vanilla resin.

I am wondering about the urban aspect in the pyramid but it captures me anyway. From the peppery start to the oriental musky trails I want to inhale this one. I have not seen it at any of the local spots so chocobo hunting it is.

I'm not sure whether this really captures anything that I would possibly describe as urban. It has a fairly intense animalic opening that slides into subtle florals and then descends into a nearly-edible powdery musk. It doesn't strike me as particularly cohesive, but I enjoy the ride.
