I’ve been a fan of the original Narciso Rodriguez perfume since 2006! I still have about half my original bottle left, and I wore it so much that it’s one of the scents that I can immediately identify, even on someone else. This scent was originally launched in April 2017 but it’s so popular that it’s still on counters.
Now, there’s a flanker: the Narciso Rodriguez for her fleur musc, and it’s definitely my new favourite perfume. Like all good flankers, this one smells a lot like the original which is good, because if you’re buying the flanker, there’s a chance that you were already a fan of the original.
Fleur Musc is definitely a touch more sweet, more feminine, more freshly floral. The heart of the fragrance is still rose, and it’s surrounded by a bit of pink peppercorn, and a base of amber and patchouli. A feminine blend of rose and peony on top of the timeless Narciso clean musk, this is a classic and perfect for all occasions. Far from boring, this is like drinking water out of a cut crystal goblet. Ironically, the easy-to-wear musks are some of my most overlooked perfumes and ones I rarely reach for. Maybe I’ll change that this week.
Name your favourite musk, which one do I need to add to my collection?
