Musc Immortel opens with a bright, slightly boozy iris and citrus, leading into a richly layered blend of musk, ambrette, and earthy woody notes. The perfumers achieve a profound sense of depth and quiet elegance, with a dry down defined by sweet musk and immortelle, evoking warm hay, dusty chocolate, and a radiant powdery glow. It feels serious and intentional—far from easy, but deeply rewarding for those who appreciate complexity. Longevity is impressive, lasting deep into the day and lingering on fabric even after hours. It wears close to the skin, with moderate to strong sillage, making it a quietly confident presence. Perfect for autumn and evening wear, it feels lush and cocooning, especially on cooler days. Some find it bitter and deep, others praise its uniqueness and refined playfulness.
