Okay, so I’ve been seeing “musk perfume for women” all over my feeds lately, and I finally caved. I mean, who doesn’t want to smell intriguing, right? So I started this little experiment to find the one.

The Hunt Begins
First, I hit up some department stores. I sprayed those little paper strips like crazy, trying to keep them all separate and labeled. It was a mess, honestly. My nose was so confused after like, ten minutes.
Online Deep Dive
Then, I went down the online rabbit hole. I read tons of reviews, checked out different brands, and made a list of the ones that sounded most promising. It was overwhelming, to say the least!
The Testing Phase
I ordered a bunch of samples – gotta love those tiny vials! – and started my personal testing phase. Here’s how I did it:
- One scent per day. No mixing and matching, gotta give each one a fair chance.
- Spritz on pulse points. Wrists, neck… you know the drill.
- Take notes! I kept a little journal to jot down my thoughts throughout the day. How did it make me feel? How long did it last? Did I get any compliments? (Important stuff!)
The Results (So Far!)
It’s still a work in progress, but I’ve definitely found a few contenders. Some were way too strong, almost overpowering. Others were nice, but faded super quickly. And then there are a couple that I keep coming back to – they’re warm, a little mysterious, and just make me feel… good. I am feeling so happy. And I got some compliments from others.
I’m not ready to reveal my absolute favorite just yet, but I’m getting closer! It’s been a fun (and sometimes smelly) journey, and I’m excited to see where it ends. I will continue to try and find which one is best for me.
