Abelmoschus moschatus Musk Mallow

Musk raw materials resemble the scent of clean, warm skin and bring sensuality and depth to a fragrance. In early perfumery, musk was a raw material derived from an animal. This has been banned since the 1970s, today perfumers use natural and synthetic materials that mimic traditional musks.

Perfumery: It is widely used as a fixative in high quality fragrance formulations to which it imparts a a strong and characteristic musk note. With a much smoother odour than synthetic musk compounds, it delivers a \"roundness\" rarely found in other perfumery materials.

Aroma: Intensely very complex, sweet, nutty/seed-like, floral-musky, rounded with nuances of warm wine, Cognac, Dry tobacco back notes, and underscored with the subtle, sensual character of leather and animalic notes all through the long drydown.
