Pros

Top note: A slightly spicy fragrance mixed with soap and musk. The musk scent is not too heavy, but has a deep soap-like and musk feel. Middle note: There is a slightly pungent spicy scent that gradually turns somewhat woody, but it's very natural and pleasant. The soapy and musk scent from the top note becomes a bit softer, giving the impression of a fragrant body wash or body lotion just applied. I sprayed it twice on my wrists and let it spread to my neck, then sprayed it once more on my wrists and swiped it from the middle to the ends of my hair. The wind blew my hair around and people around me in the enclosed space said the fragrance was so nice, asking what shampoo I was using. Dry down: The subtle musk scent and a slightly cool fragrance remain, but the middle note has become a bit lighter. The top, middle, and base notes don't drastically change, so as someone who only smelled the top note, I was very satisfied. Given the heavy nature of the fragrance, it's perfect for winter. I used it throughout the winter without getting tired of it, and it just got better the more I used it. Others: It is clearly different from The Body Shop's White Musk, which I used years ago, so an accurate comparison is difficult. The Body Shop's scent felt very unisex, not leaning too much towards either gender, while Narciso Rodriguez for Her also works well for both men and women, but with a more neutral scent that occasionally has a delicate, feminine quality, making it slightly more suitable for women. Bottle: It's in a matte, opaque white bottle with a glossy black cap - simple yet elegant. I had no idea such a precious fragrance would be in this rugged bottle, but the more I use it, the better the fragrance matches the bottle. Pump: I've used the 50ml bottle and never had any issues with it spraying like a water gun or dripping excessively. The pump is reliable. Ingredients: Many perfumes have over 10 harmful ingredients, but this one is at a really good level.

Cons

I didn't know this before, but I recently learned through the anti-Japan movement that Narciso Rodriguez was acquired by Shiseido, a Japanese company. As someone who tries to avoid buying Japanese products, I no longer have any intention to repurchase this. The fragrance is truly wonderful, but it's a shame that it ended up under a Japanese subsidiary, forcing me to reluctantly forgo purchasing it. I also prefer transparent bottles so I can easily see how much is left, which this opaque bottle doesn't allow.
