Musc Noir Rose For Her

I tried Musc Noir and Musc Nude at the mall and fell in love with both. I blind bought this since it was on sale and seemed to have similar notes to those two (and I LOVE rose!). I don't own the other two, but I like the plum note in the Musc Noir much better than in Musc Noir Rose, so I think next time I'll get that. I think I like the musky-vanilla more in MNR than Musc Nude though. I do go nose blind to this scent on my skin, likely due to the musk notes. However, I did one spay on a cotton pad and smelled it in my room for days! Unfortunately I don't get a ton of rose, but it's still sexy and lovely. I find it gets a bit sweater and creamier on the dry down, but not overly so (I don't like gourmand vanillas). I find I like MNR the more I wear it, so I'm excited to be wearing it more on spring nights.

Delicious and utterly feminine, Musc Noir Rose For Her is a much more romantic interpretation of Musc Noir. It is seductive, spicy, and warm, with a velvety softness that clings to the skin . At first spray, both perfumes smell almost identical, with a blast of plummy, fruity sweetness. Then the jammy rose unfolds, deepening the sweetness into something richer and more intoxicating. On my skin, I find it more subtle than the original, but still hefty and seductive , a whisper rather than a shout, yet impossible to ignore. As many have pointed out, it is a true compliment getter, leaving a trail that invites others to lean in closer.

As a huge fan of Narciso Rodriguez, I was so excited to add Musc Noir Rose to my collection - and it doesn’t disappoint. It’s a lovely blend of fruity, floral and gourmand notes with that signature NR musk, but it still feels a bit different from the others in the For Her line. On my skin, the mix of jammy rose, plum and musk is soft and easy to wear during the day. It works especially well as an office scent too - feminine, polished and inoffensive, but still interesting enough to get compliments. It suits my age perfectly - not too juvenile, not too mature, just right. Definitely signature-scent worthy.

I love Narciso Rodriguez & his "her' line the most of any of my over one hundred and fifty other fragrances. Pure Musc is my no.1, with Musc Noir Roses coming in hot at no.2 . I have to have backups for five in the " her" collection. But, I've always loved Egyptian musk & Narciso said he designed the her collection on Egyptian muck, so I understand why I love it so much. With the Musc Noir Roses I smell plum first ( which I adore) but on the dry down I get the rose & it's breathtaking. Nobody does perfume like Narciso ❤️💫

an easy reach for me. this fragrance is very “fresa” or “gomela.” prissy, a bit bratty, and quintessentially pretty. like a young heiress with a premature champagne problem. or bridezilla at her wedding dress consultation. the pink pepper bursts forward like a tantrum and eventually the vanilla in the dry down resolves her diva episode. smelling it initially on paper it’s a jammy sweetness, almost syrupy, but on skin the musk and vanilla come through and give it more softness. <3 her
