About The Body Shop Red Musk
The Body Shop is the house behind Red Musk.
Which weather suits it
It is at its best in fall. It is less suited to summer. From best to least suited, the seasons are fall, winter, spring and summer. If you need something for summer, Lattafa Najdia is a better fit. Its warm smell feels best when the weather is cold.
When in the day to wear Red Musk
This is more of an evening scent: it shines at dinners, dates and nights out. Its tobacco side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Lattafa Najdia is a lighter match.
