White musks are a synthetic rendition of animalic musks, and their aroma ranges from clean and soft, to floral and sensuous. Due to their inclusion in the laundry detergent making process, most people associate white musks with the air-dried clean laundry scent. White musks also contain fixatives, which bond to certain accords and make them cling to the skin for a longer period.

Jasmine is the ultimate aphrodisiac in perfume. It is the most intimate, sexy, gorgeous, and sensually appetizing of all the major white floral notes. Jasmine’s buttery, silky, vanilla-and-heated skin aroma is found everywhere in perfume, in both men’s and women’s scents. It’s incredible versatility is hard to match: it can soar on its own, or be artfully blended into the background, to provide a dangerous growl to an simple, demure floral bouquet. It’s also one of the most popular notes, especially in women’s perfume, so if you enjoy jasmine’s torrid sensuality, you can build a devastating fragrance collection in no time.

Woody notes encompass an entire olfactory family of deep, warm scents. They are resinous and decadently aromatic, and often derive from dried leaves or roots. Popular woody notes include the creamy, sensual scent of sandalwood, the invigorating fragrance of pine or the smoky aroma of vetiver. Woody notes are popular all year round, but are particularly suited to the colder months for their earthy, rich facets.
