Skin
Skin by Clean Reserve is an unisex eau de parfum from 2013 in the premium price tier. It opens with aldehydes and bergamot, moves into white musk and jasmine and dries down to skin musk, musk and sandalwood. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Aldehydes Fizzy, soapy, slightly waxy. The 'sparkle' at the top of Chanel No. 5.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Skin Musk Warm and intimate. Sits close and reads as 'your skin, amplified'.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
