Sonoma Scent Studio: Rose Musc



Have you read my review of Yin & Ylang not too long past? Well, I did end up buying the travel size spray of it and while shopping about on Sonoma Scent Studio I ended up picking up a 3ml spray of this rosy beauty: Rose Musc. I am quite happy I did. 

Rose Musc opens with a peppery zing of fresh rose that sweetens and fizzes like a blushing Zinfandel. As the peppered and bubbly top notes effervesce then fade, the sweet pink crystalline liquid thickens and takes on a peach jam shade.With maturity Rose Musc forms a bridge from fruit to amber effortlessly. As a labdanum fiend and a rose fanatic, merging the two makes my heart palpitate. The dry down is a dark ambered musk delight, an ebony furred being that is remarkably warm and snuggly. Every magical transition of Rose Musc is beautiful; from the effervescent to the edible to the darkly seductive and comforting, I am smiling all the while. The longevity is stellar, lasting a full day and then some. Another creation of Laurie's that I need in a bigger bottle. Though I will say with the high quality concentration and longevity, this 3ml spray will last quite a while for $11. Though I undoubtedly will get either the travel size ($17 for 5ml)) or 17ml bottle ($45).

If you haven't sampled Sonoma Scent Studio yet, you are missing out.

  1. I love this one and it's one that I need a large bottle of too! I do agree that with its potency, a small bottle lasted much longer than I initially anticipated.

    1. Hi Victoria! Thank you for stopping by and reading. I have read your blog for years now. Lurking mostly but there none the less. <3

      Laurie has a lifetime fan in me. She can do that dark everlasting labdanum like no other. Here's to both of us welcoming a larger Rose Musc into our homes and onto our skin! Have a great week!

  2. What a lovely sounding scent! I love rose and amber too so I may have to check this one out. It's rare that one application of a fragrance lasts over a day, so that's amazing!

    1. It is beautiful, Amanda! Laurie has wonderful sampling options. I agree. Most scents I wear don't last nearly as long as Laurie's can. Especially her Mixed Media scents. Hope you have been well!
