In all our years of fragrance smelling, we've come to be a little tired of the common men's fragrance notes. Absolutely no shade to bergamot, cedarwood, and leather but, at this point, we just need something a little different and unique. In comes musk, an earthy, multifaceted note that can shapeshift to almost everything, be it floral, fruity or what have you.

Looking for a warm yet subtle scent? You've come to the right place. Here are the 8 best musk fragrances for men to buy right now.

Diptyque L'Eau Papier Eau de Toilette

P9,250 AT RUSTAN'S

L'Eau Papier is the light scent of all light scents. The clean and powdery fragrance is perfect for days when you just want a wearable and inoffensive scent.

Etat Libre D'Orange She Was An Anomaly

P8,500 AT ART OF SCENT

You're in good company with She Was an Anomaly's base notes of musk, sandalwood, and amberfix. Though those notes make it seem like this is a loaded scent, it's actually a soft and powdery one that dries down to a skin scent.

Maison Margiela Replica Lazy Sunday Morning Eau de Toilette

P4,650 AT RUSTAN'S

Here's another clean fragrance. This time, though, the scent mimics the softness of cotton bed linen—a bottled Sunday morning.

Nasomatto Silver Musk 30ml

P8,600 AT ART OF SCENT

We're getting stronger and stronger. Nasomatto is known for some strong scents, so while Silver Musk is subtle, it's definitely not weak.

Narciso Rodriguez For Him Bleu Noir Parfum

P7,500 AT RUSTAN'S

Bleu Noir features iris notes, musk, and wood to make a sensual and addictive scent. Masculine? Check. Modern? Check. Overpowering? Not at all.

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Universalis Cologne Forte

P7,550 AT ADORA

Citrus and musk blend together for Maison Francis Kurkdjian's Aqua Universalis Cologne Forte. Top off with this after putting on a crisp and clean white shirt and you're good to go.

Jo Malone London Moonlit Camomile Cologne

P8,900 AT RUSTAN'S (Jo Malone London is also on Lazada.)

Use this combo of English chamomile leaves, blue moonflowers, and white musk at night for a soft and flowery effect.

Le Labo Another 13 Eau de Parfum

P12,218 AT MR PORTER

Another 13 needs no introduction. Sure, it's a clean scent just like many on this list but this one has a more musky dark undertone.
