Musk Perfumes: Ladies 13 Best Warm and Sexy Perfumes

Musky perfumes are among the most iconic perfumes we have today. The beautiful smell of musky scents are difficult to resist and tend to have a decent longevity. The modern musk perfumes are free from the historical origin of producing musk from the deer. 

Currently musk is made from natural components such as Muscone and Macrocyclic Lactones. They are present in plants such as galbanum, Angelica root and ambrette. Common types of musk include; white musk, Galaxolide musk (fresh, floral powdery musks), habanolide musk (woody musk) and Ambrettolide (soapy, fruity and ambery).

Musk is a smell that makes people feel close to other people. It shares the same chemical similarities with compounds that our body produces. Hence, making them very additive, sensual and warm. 

Musk Perfumes are normally used as a fixative in perfumes to ground the rest of the composition. They blend everything smoothly and can add fruity or warm composition in the perfume. They can be anywhere in the composition including; top, heart and base composition.
