   Everyone keeps talking about Clair de musc, so I finally gave it a proper test. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Musk with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Musk and Iris feel carefully balanced. I get about four to six hours before it turns into a skin scent. Sadly this one does not work on my skin.

   I picked up Clair de musc (2003) mostly on a whim, and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The heart is the best part for me: Musk and Iris feel carefully balanced. Give it a little time and Musk with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. Two sprays are enough — it carries well without shouting. Well done — recommended if the notes appeal to you.

   I keep reaching for Clair de musc more than I expected to. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Musk with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Musk and Iris feel carefully balanced. In cooler weather it sits closer to the skin, which I actually prefer here. I can see this getting a lot of wear in my collection.

   Serge Lutens knows how to compose, and Clair de musc (2003) is proof. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Musk with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. Give it a little time and Musk with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. It performs better in warmer weather — in the heat it opens up nicely. I reach for it often and always enjoy the wear.

This one gets my highest praise — beautiful from start to finish.

   A couple of wears in, Clair de musc has really grown on me. Give it a little time and Musk with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Musk with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. The trail is there if someone steps close, not across the room. I can see this getting a lot of wear in my collection.

The heart is the best part for me: Musk and Iris feel carefully balanced. The drydown lingers pleasantly, and I do not need to reapply at lunch. A solid addition for anyone who enjoys this style.

Give it a little time and Musk with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. Longevity is moderate and the trail is noticeable without being loud. This has earned a permanent spot in my rotation.

    Picked up a sample of Clair de musc after reading the community buzz (2003). After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Musk with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Musk and Iris feel carefully balanced. It lasts through a full workday on me, which is exactly what I want. Easily one of my favourite finds this season.
