Jovan Musk Aftershave Lotion for Men, 118 ml

Product Information

I don't smell it so much as dated, but as familiar and cozy while being charming, fruity, and musky. It feels special to connect with my dad in this sort of way, and learn about his fragrance choices long after his passing.

Musk for Men has a habit of being a few different things all bundled into one scent, sort of a Jekyll and Hyde trick.

In the late 70s, my cousin had a bottle of the Jovan Musk Oil for Men in the frosted glass bottle and to me, it was phenomenal.

It is the best of what Jovan ever offered in the line - today, really for people who love this scent. This is man stuff, but not rough, it's quite pleasant and a little bit fashionable since it has some nuances and varying ingredients to be picked out rather clearly including a floral which I thought was like lilacs, a warm hayfield type of smell, and also some mint too, and of course the warm pleasing musk. Unfortunately we are no longer able to send to France, Germany, Norway, Slovakia or Sweden due to customs regulations.It's fresh and moderately sweet, but don't smell it up close when you first spray it—your nose will burn. It's a very airy, graceful, and intimate scent that best approximates, more than anything I know, the beautiful way a baby's head smells. On the other hand, the original Jovan Musk aftershave is made using exotic spices and woods for a masculine scent. I didn't read all the reviews, but anyone would agree that it smells identical to some Gillette shaving foam when first applied? The notes are essentially the same as the original Aftershave/Cologne, but with richness that is FAR more impressive.

It's exactly as I remembered it: Clean, smooth and sensual with a slightly powdery musk combination. Over the course of middle school and high school, I used up the whole huge bottle--even though it smelled ridiculously old on me. My wife is younger than I am (she's 30) and I guess the way I described how I remembered this made her expect something completely different. Take note that i tried this in cold weather, things may change in summer, but right now, good little musky cheapie fun to mess around with. Very mildly spiced- how I imagine a curry made by a full-blooded Briton for full-blooded Britons might be spiced.Jovan Musk for Men Aftershave contains a blend of exotic spices and woods and the seductive power of musk that works with your body's natural chemistry to create a scent that is masculine, sexy and powerfully persuasive. I last owned a bottle of Jovan Musk in 1993 and given that it’s still around, I was curious, and purchased a new bottle last week. I was at a local pharmacy today and they had a tester bottle of this on the shelf, so I gave a few spritzes of it inside the cap to see if I liked it (which I undoubtedly did), then a few spritzes on myself to try. I don't think I would have worn it myself back then, because at that time it was SOOO obvious to everyone that it was Jovan Musk for Men. I wear this whenever I do any work outdoors in the Autumn, it just feels like the perfect fragrance for chopping up wood.

Maybe it's just how my skin reacts to it in particular, but the bottle I bought is absolutely beast mode! Considering words like "savage" and "dated" get thrown around so often with all things Jovan, I was very surprised with how soft, fresh, and inoffensive I found it. Recent online purchase after a 1 year absence seemed more watered down than the 1 oz and 3 oz versions that I bought 2 - 3 years ago.Also, my dad was more of a Brut guy, so I'm walking into this review without any prior association or bias. Jovan Musk opens up with bitter fruit of lemon and lime with pepper and carnations then moves onto an herbal garden of mint and lavender with amber and spice then finishes the scent with smooth musk and precious woods. Orbison, still a draw with his oldies setlist, chose a part-time Betamax machine repairman to join his US tour. I just hope you get a chance to try the vintage formula someday because it's pure 70's magic in a bottle! Its characteristic musk note blends with one's own body scent to provide a powerful masculine aroma.
