  1. Perfect for after a shower, keeping that fresh clean feeling. The musk is incredibly powdery. When I saw it in the packaging, I thought it was a retro cologne, but it’s been a great surprise; I absolutely love it.

    A bit powdery and super cheap. For the price, it’s not bad to have this retro scent.
