Musc Nurāsana by Maison Crivelli: A Spicy Musk with Radiance
Maison Crivelli introduces Musc Nurāsana, a new oriental spicy fragrance launched in 2026. Created by perfumer Gaël Montero, it explores the contrast between citrus freshness and the deep warmth of musk and incense.
This composition unfolds as a sensory journey, blending bright notes with a woody, balsamic base. It's a standout addition to the house's collection, already known for bold, narrative-driven creations.
The fragrance opens with a burst of bergamot, ginger, and cardamom, creating a vibrant, slightly piquant start. This freshness gradually fades to reveal a heart where Damask rose and incense intertwine, adding floral elegance and a mystical touch.
At the base, musk takes centre stage, supported by labdanum, tonka bean, and fir. This combination produces a warm, powdery, and subtly woody trail that lingers on the skin with an enveloping aura. Key accords include amber, fresh spices, rose, musk, aromatic nuances, citrus, warm spices, wood, talc, and freshness.
The fragrance holds an average rating of 4.08 out of 5, based on 755 ratings, indicating a positive reception. With only 4 written reviews so far, it's a recent launch gaining traction in the perfume world.
Musc Nurāsana proves versatile, suitable for both day and night, though it particularly shines in cooler weather or for special occasions where a lasting impression is desired. Its sillage is moderate to intense, and longevity is impressive, often exceeding eight hours on most skin.
Gaël Montero's composition plays on the duality between light and depth, crafting an olfactory experience that invites introspection. It's a scent that doesn't go unnoticed, yet isn't overwhelming, achieving a sophisticated balance.
In summary, Musc Nurāsana is a tribute to musk in its most expressive form, surrounded by spices and resins that elevate it to another level. A must-try for enthusiasts of modern orientals with character.
This fragrance is for those seeking a spicy, sophisticated musk with a fresh, floral twist. It's ideal for men and women who appreciate complex, personality-driven compositions and enjoy scents that evolve throughout the day. It's also a great pick for collectors eager to explore recent niche releases.
Musc Nurāsana is a remarkable launch that showcases Maison Crivelli's and Gaël Montero's expertise. Its balance of freshness and warmth, along with its elegant sillage, makes it a worthy addition to any fragrance wardrobe. If you're after a musk with character and a story to tell, this is it.

Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
It smells like strong leather, it’s a dry and shrill thing. Absolutely unbearable for me.
A spectacle. A unique scent with an important olfactory memory, soft but present, multifaceted and interesting. 100% unisex. Absolutely versatile. Acceptable longevity and prohibitive price. A whim that is only worth it if you try it and it dazzles you, like me.
Well, I didn’t like it. It’s one of those scents that doesn’t appeal to me. I had the same experience with Existence by Amouage (which I bought blind and it was a huge disappointment) and actually I think they are very similar. A smell of incense that is too present. An incense refreshed by citrus, which makes a difficult combination for my nose. Not pleasant at first sniff. I’m sorry. Then there’s also the rose. That’s what I smell. Neither musk nor anything. Existence I had to learn to love because I had bought it, and I must say that after using it quite a bit, I acquired a taste for its development. Something tells me that with Musc Nurasana something similar would happen to me, because I insist, they are very similar. But with an impulsive purchase, I had enough. Thank you. This perfume is not coming into the collection.
Let me start by saying that I’m not a fan of musks in general, but this new extrait from Crivelli has enchanted me. I think this is mainly due to the fact that its name is misleading. If there is musk, it is very much in the background, like that of a skin warmed by the sun but just after getting out of the shower, and it is hidden under a layer of damp roses and very fresh incense, almost citrusy. I understand here the “nurasana” part from which Thibaud draws inspiration, because this combination seems almost meditative to me while being optimistic. It’s a bright morning and a happy peace. It lasts and projects much more than I expected, so, although in intention it’s a “second skin” type of perfume, in reality it leaves a super elegant trail and a presence that could well be worn at night. In fact, I see the connection with Impadia and Guidance, but here there is less opulence and more whisper, less velvet and more linen, less density and more light. For me, it has been a success after several releases from the house that had not excited me. 8/10.

Well, I didn’t like it. It’s one of those scents that doesn’t make me fall in love. The same thing happened to me with Existence by Amouage (which I bought blindly and was a huge disappointment) and I actually think they’re very similar. A too-present incense smell. An incense refreshed by citrus, which makes a difficult combination for my nose. It’s not pleasant to me at first sniff. I’m sorry. Then of course it also has rose. That’s what I smell. No musk, nothing. Existence I had to learn to love since I had bought it, and I have to say that after using it quite a bit, well, I acquired a certain taste for it, mainly due to the core of its development. Something tells me that with Musc Nurasana something similar would happen to me because I insist, they are very similar. But with one impulsive purchase I had enough, thanks.
