What do reviewers say about Muscs Koublai Khan and Musk Vernaculaire?
The animalic is the point. Civet, costus, castoreum layered into warmth so natural it stops feeling like perfume and starts feeling like skin that happens to smell incredible.Muscs Koublai Khan
Bold from the first spray. If you want a fragrance that announces itself politely, look elsewhere. The animalic opening is the point, it's what separates this from every other musky amber in the rack.Musk Vernaculaire
