While Aqua Universalis by Maison Francis Kurkdjian is reminiscent of a clean white shirt, the Forte version adds some ornamentation to that outfit. By reorganizing the ingredients, this more pronounced version enhances the charm of the sunny freshness, with a stronger focus on the flowers, making it a more mature and sophisticated fragrance.
The afterglow, sparkle, and intensity of the scent are heightened by the addition of green bergamot from Calabria, jasmine and rose absolutes from Egypt and Morocco, and light woods, all underscored by potent musk. With an exceptional concentration of 40%, it is on par with a perfume extract.
Orange blossom, Freesia, Lemon, Jasmine, Lily-of-the-valley, Musk, Bergamot

Musk
Musk: versatile and exciting. Musky perfumes are powdery, creamy and caring, but also sensual, earthy and a little animalic. It is a favorite base note used in all kinds of products, from perfumes to skincare to candles and beyond. Back in the day, actual musk was derived from animal glands. Fortunately musk of animal origin is no longer allowed. The musky scents you smell today is entirely ethical, made up of a combination of beautiful synthetics and natural resources like plants.
