Nice review. I also have a good nose for musk. the only one I dont like is the musk that smells like a baby.
I wear Egyptian musk with my fragrances sometimes.
nice . . yes musk is good smelling . i have few musk oils.
where can I find the ASQ musks?
Very informative and well presented, I felt very relaxed watching this. Great job my friend 🙂 p.s. I love musky scents!!
Hello, I’m so glad I stumbled upon this video because I’ve learned so much. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
was deer musk retrieved from the feet of the deer musk or testicals? I’m asking because when I was young and visiting the Himalayan town manali this local farmer once offered my family to buy deer musk it was a small hairy ball-nugget looking thing that he rubbed on our hands and it smelled like musk for days .. he said it’s retrieved from deer musk hoof. but I always thought it was the testicals.
very Very informative
Happy New Years! Great work man! I love musk, and I enjoyed this presentation of yours. I am very interested in the ASQ Deer Musk and Kashmir Musk as well as Abdul Karim Al Faransi’s musk. I will have to check out Roja.. looks delicious hehe
Speaking of pretty affordable burnable aoud… I ordered some from oudimentary.com and am awaiting the package in the mail. I will let you know what I think as soon as I can burn some.
I look forward to the next videos bro!
My man! Great vid as usual!
Thank you so much.
love your video and musk in general ! thank u!
Thanks for the video.. What is that Misk Aswad from Abdulkareem (time 12:15)? from where can found?
Nikhil, glad to see someone making videos Soo elaborately on perfumes/attar. You are pretty impressive I must say.
Appreciate your efforts Sir…thank u for such an amazing video
Loved it.
i have had real deer musk, made from kasturi pods. very strong and powdery smell. that powdery aroma comes from kasturi and some described it as baby powder or white musk. very strong
I haven’t seen the movie Perfume .
I will have to watch.
So they can’t reproduce the pheromone of musk ?
I have some older fragrances , reformulations or not,
that are far superior than the same ones the make today.
What’s Egyptian Musk ?
8% of the population can’t detect the note of musk.
Interesting .
I was sampling L’Artisan’s Al Oudh.
I enjoyed it, but I can see how some might not.
I get dates, something slightly sweet, velvety in the opening.
That changed into a dry/ash, civet .The civet wasn’t overwhelming ,
but it did start to come forward after the opening faded.
The dry/ash/smoke pushed the civet forward , especially when the cumin
and castoreum showed up.
It did seem synthetic .
I didn’t notice any agar wood.
I can see why some people wouldn’t like Al Aoud.
It can be dry/sharp at times.
It did end up very nice and sweet in the end.
I like cumin. I like the way that Amouage used it in Opus 3.
With civet, I don’t remember which perfume it was,
but it reminded me of cat urine when I wore it.
Oud Infini. I’ll have to try that.
Excellent video.
I learned a lot.
The best to you in
_2017_
master Nikhil, do yo know ASAQ black stone for him?
Happy New Year, your video is informative. Have you done an Ambergris video? Sub’d
Awesome..
hello.. exotic scents.. what is the name and manufacture of the perfume mentioned at the 1300 mark in video. where can this be obtained..? I believe its maybe called oud infani but unsure.. thank you sir.. follow up.. is it from the company dusita ?
Abdul Karim Al Faransi has many nice musk fragrances. I’ve used all my samples and its time to buy full bottles.
I did enjoyed a lot this video. Very informative, thank you! Oudh Infini is a beautifully blended animalic scent a dirty one, and I do understand that it may be outputting to a lots of people, Beaver instead is a clean civet.
Can u show us how make traditional indian solid perfume that I see on the internet I don’t know if they use bees wax or something else.
deer mask is the sunnah of holy prophet(p.b.u.h).
zabardast!
Exotic scents
i come across Wisal ajmal fragrances, I would love for you to recommend a few that I could try from this brand since I’m new to this style of fragrances, what I mean is like the middle eastern fragrances.
Thanks again in advance
I love animalic scents…it’s popular here in UAE….Oud..musk…ambergris…Great channel and great work my friend. ..btw have you tried Blue Kenam by ASQ?
great video very well explained I now feel I can explore musk based scents. thank you.
Such a nice and informational Review! Enjoyed it a lot 🙂
Visited 2 days ago ASQ in Dubai, they released a new White musk with florals oil. Smells better than Body Musk.
What i also get in Kashmir Musk is a heavy Patchouli Note :).
Now i’m searching for an Burning Oud or Burning incense stick oil or fragrance.
My recommandition for good Musky Scents are the Hindi Oud oils from Swiss Arabian & Molecule no.1.
All in all good Review bhai saheb!!!
Greetings from Australia. It would be great if you could do a video on women’s perfume oils. Many of the girls out there would really love this!
Very informative Nikhil Bhai,keep it up
Genuine deer musk is still sold in small amounts, but it costs 10 x the price of pure gold. I think most commercial perfumes with “musc” note have no resemblance of real musk
Awesome..
Thank you for sharing. I couldn’t make out what scent you said was the closest to deer scent. Could you please let me know which one it is?
i was always thinking of musk beeing fresh?!
i know you also own arabian knight by arabian oud, the description on the website says its the finest types of musk.
Im confused 😀
is this maybe white musk in here?
Bro please make a review on
montale black oud pleeeease
Wonderful .. enjoyed and wish you a very wonderful year.
Excellent, informative video! Your presentions are so clear and I always add a few scents to my wish after listening. I am so glad that animals are no longer used for musk, as plant/synthetic substitutes are lovely (lovelier) and cruelity free. Happy new year to you and your family. Looking forward to more videos from you!
