I am a huge fan of Body Shop White Musk and this was the first fragrance I was keen to sample in the new range of summer fragrances. This scent is warmer than the ‘Sunkissed’ as it has the underlying white musk fragrance, although it is barely detectable in this version until the dry down. This is not an overpowering fragrance but it is an interesting and refreshing twist on the old musk. You can certainly detect the lemon element which gives this fragrance a bright, fresh note and here is a touch of warming amber floral to take away the sharpness of the lemon.
The longevity is good but I prefer the dry down where you do start to detect more of the old ‘White Musk’ characters. All in all a nice fruity, summery fragrance but I think that the iconic ‘White Musk’ should be left to its old and much loved devices. I wouldn't exactly class this fragrance as seductive but it does have a little something about it....

Maybe the lack of musk for people, not for me though.
Summary
I have to admit, I am not a massive fan of musk, I expected this perfume to be musky but this was far from it.
If I was a musk lover I would have been upset but as I am not, I absolutely loved it.
Bottle is easy to use and the fragrance is floral.
