The Musc

Eau de Parfum

The Musc by Essential Parfums, three-quarter view of the bottle

The story of The Musc

The Musc, a floral, musky eau de parfum by Essential Parfums, wraps the skin in a creamy, honeyed musk imagined by Calice Becker.

At once fresh, honeyed and warm, The Musc is a subtle blend of bewitching scents. It opens on red ginger from Laos, joined by lavandin grosso from France. At the heart, natural beeswax brings a creamy, honeyed softness, while in the base a pure note of Nirvanolide musk and Australian sandalwood punctuate the whole with warm, woody tones. Replanted twenty years ago, Australian sandalwood album guarantees Indigenous communities the protection and sustainability of their lands.

Created by Calice Becker, this musk can be breathed in endlessly: red ginger and lavandin give it momentum, beeswax makes it creamy, then Australian sandalwood wraps it in woody warmth — a second nature on the skin.
