Musk Oud
Cold citrus struck like a match, then bergamot. By Kilian Musk Oud has a sense of occasion.

How it moves
It arrives on lemon, bergamot and grapefruit — bright, immediate, gone before you have decided about it. The middle belongs to oud and coriander. By evening it is musk, cedarwood and amber, and it is better for it.
Who made it
Calice Becker composed it in 2013, for By Kilian in France. The lightest of Kilian's Arabian Nights ouds, built on citrus, musk and a transparent oud accord.
