My husband has worn Jovan Musk For Men cologne exclusively since we married in 1978. Over the years we have both noted that, although it retains it’s original scent, it has grown progressively weaker over the years; less longevity and sillage.. I recently discovered Kiehl’s 160th Anniversary Musk Oil. I have found that by decanting his Jovan Musk for Men into an atomizer (ridiculously inexpensive…an EIGHT ounce bottle can be found for $25 or so) and topping it off with just a small bit of this Musk Oil, shaking it well before each use, it replicates the scent of vintage 70’s Jovan Musk for men. It lasts on him 10+ hours, trailing an intoxicating soft sillage of 5-6 feet. Heaven in a bottle…

Very long lasting smooth clean yet slightly animalic musk though not heavily musky.
I wish it had sillage (oil version that is, edt is not the same but sharper). It is very snug and cosy smelling. Nothing like other musks i have smelt.
I got this after it reminded me of my previous alsation dog her scent was similar to this though muskier. Very comforting.

I was thinking about purchasing this one about 5 years ago and simply couldn´t find the store in my country. Now when I moved, at first I actually thought I´m purchasing the Kiehl´s Original Musk. Even though I can´t wait to try the Original one, I´m happy to finally have this in my collection too.
I literally couldn´t stop sniffing my wrist after applying it for the first time!
I like to use Kiehl´s 160th Anniv. scent on those days when simple scents like jasmine oil or BS white musk aren´t enough, but Chanel´s or Dior´s are too much.
It really is almost every ocasion scent – earthy, intimate, not so musky as I expected, but still enough to be on the more masculine side – but it still makes me feel very sexy and ladylike when wearing it. Feels like wearing garter belt under your clothes – even though others can´t see it, you know and it makes you feel more confident.
Smooth, animalistic, but not too much – but this can depend on the skin. I can´t smell any florals at all on me. Very warm, perfect for winter and autumn, can´t wait to see how it would feel wearing it in summer. (Update: use sparingly in summer! :))
Lasted about 5 hours on me, but than again, I tend to use rather less than more.
