The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2010, Musk to Musk by Montale is a sophisticated Oriental Woody fragrance crafted by Pierre Montale. The composition opens with fresh spicy notes that introduce an unexpected tension before settling into the rich and complex heart of oud and powdery musk. This interplay between freshness and depth creates a distinctive olfactory experience that is both warm and intriguing.

How to wear it

One or two sprays are sufficient as the fragrance blooms gradually on skin. It’s best to apply it before a meeting or a casual dinner to allow the powdery musk and woody notes to fully integrate.
