Perris Musk Extreme Eau de Parfum - 100 ml

Perris Musk Extreme is a unisex musky eau de parfum. The origin of the legend of Musk dates back to Indian mythology: the demon Pulaka, after atoning for a long and severe punishment in the form of an antelope, was granted by the god Shiva, as a reward, the ability to emit a very intense fragrance. From that moment on, Pulaka, thanks to his fantastic scent, began to seduce the god's women, thus breaking moral and religious rules and norms. As a result, Shiva ordered Pulaka to abandon his demonic body, but allowed him to keep the fragrance generated by his limbs, Musk. This name, Musk, comes from the Sanskrit mrgamada, and means love secretion of the Antelope. It is said that Empress Josephine, wife of Napoleon and a lover of perfumes, especially Musk, used it generously to seduce her husband and ensure his devotion, despite Napoleon's frequent protests. Josephine belonged to a group of fashionable young people called Les Muscadins to highlight their passion for musk. Musk is the master of the art of perfumery. It evokes an extraordinary olfactory response due to its effect on the psyche and its healing virtues. The fragrance is refined, very sensual, warm, and persistent. Musk Extreme originates from a formula of the house Houbigant from 1928, dove the aldehyde structure is enriched with Bergamot, Iris Absolute, Vanilla Absolute, Rose Absolute, Civet, and Musk.
