Musk

Eau De Toilette

The most popular product, Eau de Toilette, is hot, sexy and very subtle. MUSK Eau de Toilette can be worn anytime, anywhere.

In the world of perfumery, MUSK is a magic word. It is an animal scent, warm, sweet and very long lasting.

The essence was originally extracted from a musk deer gland Moschus moschiferus from Tibet, China and Nepal. This smell has a sexual attraction to women and this is why it is considered an erotic perfume.

Today, fortunately, the animal extract has been replaced with synthetic products, to avoid the extinction of this poor deer, and the results in perfumery are as good if not better than the original fragrance. However the origins of musk are still surrounded by many myths and legends. Oriental medicine in China, India, Arabia and Japan attributes various properties to natural Musk among which the aphrodisiac properties are the most emphasized in the perfumery industry.

The legend of Musk origins lies in Indian mythology. The demon Pulaka, having endured a long and severe punishment in the aspect of an antelope, obtained as a reward from Shiva - the ability to give off a very intense scent. From that moment in Pulaka, thanks to its wonderful scent, began to seduce the women of the god, thus breaking the religious and moral rules. As a result of this, Shiva ordered Pulaka to abandon his demonic body, but gave him permission to keep the scent generated by his limbs, "MUSK".

This name Musk, which derives from "mrgamada" in Sanskrit, means "the secretion of love Antelope". It is said that the Empress Josephine, Napoleon's wife, passionately adored perfumes, especially musk, which she generously used to seduce her husband and ensure his devotion, despite Napoleon's frequent protests. She belonged to a group of trendy young men and women called "Les Muscadins" as a result of their moss craze.

Today Alyssa Ashley's Musk is a fragrance market leader, and in many countries it is considered a "PERFUME CULT".
