Musk is a classic aromatic substance of animal origin, used in perfumery and extracted from the glands of certain male animals (most commonly musk deer). Since in nature animals use musk as a pheromone to attract the attention of the opposite sex, this aromatic substance has a similar effect in humans. White musk is a synthetic substance used in perfumery as an alternative to red musk of animal origin in order to preserve nature and wildlife. It is considered to be a powerful aphrodisiac that stimulates the senses, awakens and opens the most secret desires and the depths of the soul.
