To hate musk in perfumes?

[awakenedlight]

I strongly dislike musk in perfume on me. I find it dries down to this heavy and nauseating smell that I really dislike. No matter what perfume I use, if it contains musk it will dry down and be all that I can smell, all the other notes of the perfume will be gone aside from the heavy, lingering musk smell.

It seems to be in every perfume, so is it popular with others? Do you find it dries down badly on you or do you like musk in perfumes?

Nope I detest it too. It makes me feel physically sick.

The worst perfume in the world is Amouage. It makes me feel like I’m about to vomit.

I don't like it either.

Me too. Once worked with a lady who liberally sprayed herself with Impulse “A hint of musk”. I had to cover her job one day and found the spray in her desk drawer. I got a sticker, coloured in in gold sharpie to match the aerosol colour, and changed it to say “a hint of must”. Put her off when she found it. I should’ve been given an OBE or something for services to colleagues.

It was ok thirty years ago amongst teenage girls. Doesn't work now.

I hate it. Makes me want to vom

Which type of musk though? I like a well blended white musk, and hate civet.

It gives me migraines and is the reason I can't ware perfume nor do I let anyone in my home with any on

@BluePeterVag I don’t get it. You put a sticker on her spray and she didn’t use it anymore? That’s because you just embarrassed her over it in a passive aggressive way, it’s definitely not award-worthy.

It is a cloying sent though, I don’t like it.

It's not in every perfume. Look for ones which are more green or floral.
