Musk Margarita
Lemon, lime and ginger give way to tropical fruit, then settle into signature white musks.
Perfumer: Anne-Sophie Behaghel
It starts with sparkling citrus and ends close to the skin in musk, and this margarita-inspired extrait is built around that passage. Lemon and lime lead with sharp acidity, ginger makes the edge even crisper, and orange and mandora round the corners so the opening is bright rather than simply sour.
Pineapple, passion fruit and guava then layer in, thickening the juicy sweet-tart character, while passion flower gives the dense fruit a lighter, floral lift.
The base centres on signature white musks. The vegetal character of a tequila note, the soft sweetness of cane sugar, the fruity-herbal tone of davana and the dry warmth of amberwoods and ambroxan gather around them. The image is of tropical fruit melting away as the day fades, leaving the softness of musk on the skin, told through the contrast of citrus and musk.
