Legend has it that when Shakespeare wrote about Cleopatra’s famously scented sails, “so perfumèd that the winds were lovesick with them,” he was talking about the scent of Egyptian musk – the smell that helped her win the heart of Mark Anthony.

Despite not being fully decoded, ancient Egyptian texts describe its scent. 

The original recipe was based on… surprise, surprise… MUSK! If you ask me, it seems like the ancient Egyptians used Egyptian musk partly as perfume, partly as medicine. Given the ingredients in the descriptions – frankincense, myrrh, patchouli, cedarwood – you might as well be reading about a healing potion that would coincidently smell fantastic.

Cleopatra is a precious jewel of rare beauty characterized by a fresh, vibrant, flowery scent.
