OG perfume blogger Victoria of EauMg described Musk Therapy as smelling like "hot people effortlessly being hot," and friends, I am not immune to that sort of hyperbole; I'll even one-up it. This fragrance makes you feel like you're just better than everyone. And you'll smell so good, they'll go with it. It's got a beautiful bitter sourness like the salvia flowers just outside my house, which smell like velvety aldehydes and sparkling grapefruit peels and a musky magnolia and sandalwood soapiness that's neither too much of one nor the other, and wow...this really is a flawless, perfect summer scent.
Edited to add: a friend just described this as "Abercrombie and Witch" and that is so perfect. Musk Therapy has got a sort of citrusy-fresh normie aspect to it that seems like something you smell all the time, but it's somehow elevated to an almost preternatural extent, like citrusy fresh as commissioned by a kajillionaire sorceress. I wear it because on one hand, it makes me feel like I'm blending in, but at the same time, I'm reassuring myself, "no, no, you're really different, you're NOT LIKE OTHER GIRLS" and that's when the full moon peeks from behind a cloud and then I wolf out and bite a Karen's head off when she chirps about good vibes only. No, Karen, we're gonna sit with our shit and do some shadow work, and we're gonna smell really hot while we're doing it.
