Pros & Cons
- ✅ Another excellent release from this line! This has the same leather note as platinum leather, I smell some orris, no rose and some amber sweetness. It reminds me a tiny bit of iris empire. The dry down is sweet musk.
- ✅ A powdery, leathery, spicy musk. Emerald Musk is a beautiful leathery scent. While it is called 'musk' it is more leather than musk but only by a bit. From start to finish it is warm leather/musk scent, made spicier with pink pepper and powdery with non-lipsticky orris and rose.
- ✅ Powdery, leathery, and floral at its core, Emerald Musk carries an elegance that feels both refined and approachable. The musk is present but softer than I’d prefer, leaving space for the orris and rose to play against a supple leather backdrop.

- ❌ I've smelled these and they are nothing new, very standard fare. For the price I was expecting different, unique, daring, but they are safe, predictable type scents just priced really high so people who can afford them feel exclusive.
- ❌ The performance is average from this, unfortunately. Big 'Like' but pass due to the price.
- ❌ I was able to smell it extremely clearly on a tester strip for 48+ hours but on skin the scent fades faster and i struggle to sense it after around 4-5 hours.
- ❌ The longevity of the fragrance is my biggest criticism... on skin the scent fades faster and i struggle to sense it after around 4-5 hours.
- ❌ It is a really good scent but is it worth ~$300? I don't think so. ... The performance is average from this, unfortunately. Big 'Like' but pass due to the price.
