    This reminds me of an old vintage makeup powder with a big fluffy puff sitting on a vanity. It smells like a powder scented with pretty florals. At first I wasn’t sure what to think of this, but now it’s one of my favorite scents! I like to wear this when I don’t have a particular fragrance in mind. It’s very easy to wear and goes with every season and occasion. Inoffensive and very pretty.

    Wonderful stuff, I can’t describe it any better then the reviewer below me, it’s dark smoky slightly floral musky powder. I was terrified of this one for so long because aldehydes don’t like me. Honestly, if they weren’t listed in the notes I wouldn’t believe they existed in this scent at all. The silage is very soft on me, softly sensual. Not every scent has to have massive silage to impress me though, I am a sucker for soft powder.

    Smells like jumping into a huge powder puff. I love it. Smoky Incense, antique makeup powder, warm musk, and romantic amber on soft silk purple pajamas. Smells like a perfect evening. Could wear this after a shower to bed, or after a shower to go out with someone special. An inexpensive memorable perfume. If someone hugged you while wearing this, you’d want to hold on a little longer. I’ve loved this scent since I was a teen. I remember getting a small wrist sample and I couldn’t stop smelling it. . Classic, inoffensive, comforting. Perfect color of the bottle for the scent.
    Reminds me of a deeper more romantic version of Heaven Sent. Like an older more sultry sister of Heaven Sent. I like wearing both before bed or just relaxing at home.
    Tabu is also similar if you take away the root beer scent in tabu, I feel you’d be left with something similar to this.

    This is another musk I love. It smells very powdery, spicy, smoky, and musky. Amazing scent.

    I loved this scent on a friend, so I bought it for myself and it was completely different. Sad, but at least I can still enjoy it on others!
    And no, this does not smell like B&BW Moonlight Path to me at all!

    Received this fragrance from a coworker as a gift. To me, this smells like a soft vanilla musk (vanilla is not listed as a note) with a powdery incense drydown. It sits rather close to the skin for me. I have been wearing it as a bedtime fragrance after my nightly bath/shower. A very soft, and comfy scent. My boyfriend likes it on me as well. Longevity on me is about 2 hours on the skin and hours longer on clothes. My pajamas will still have this scent the next day. Overall a nice fragrance by Avon. I may purchase this for myself after my gifted bottle is gone.

    Avon Night Magic confuses me. I have always thought it smells like perfumed baby powder. Today it is more complex. I can detect musk, incense, amber and sandalwood. Interesting. I still feel it is too masculine for me to wear so will keep as air freshener.
    One spray on me,
    Sillage: arm’s length
    Longevity: two hours
    Rating: 3/5

    This is a review for the scent, but for the perfumed skin softener. This was a blind buy but I knew from the description that I would like it. This is every “moonlight path”, “Amethyst” or Lilac Musk fragrance that you’ve ever liked.
    I read someone refer to Avon scents as that “Avon” smell, and this perfume has it. There’s nothing wrong with that– I rather like it but I definitely see potential for putting this on at night after a bubble bath, so I can layer it in the morning! I might have to check out the perfume!

    I put some on before bed last night, and it was still pretty strong when I got up in the morning. I think this is more complex and interesting than Moonlight Path from Bath & Body Works. Once in a while Avon has a nice perfume, and I think this is one of them. It’s definitely a nice musk.

    Not a review, just a memory: I haven’t smelt this since I was a kid over at my best friend’s house, over 25 years ago. Her mother had a huge collection of Avon fragrances and makeup. My friend and I had a blast with all the little sample lipsticks and costume jewelry. This fragrance had a home right next to the bathroom sink and I would give it a spray from time to time. I found it a little enchanting and the nicest of her Avon fragrances, even though I associated it with being an “old lady” smell at the time.

    Smells like a mix between Baby Powder and Gasoline.
    After some time it’s a soft musky smell, almost comforting.

    NIGHT MAGIC EVENING MUSK is a powdery, quiet musk with smokey undertones. After 2 or 3 hours, I can pick up just the faintest trace of floral notes (primarily the rose), but I don’t detect the aldehydes. There isn’t any of that initial note of hairspray or shampoo that often occurs in some of the less expensive musk fragrances. Although the name implies a sultry aspect, I find it to be more calming and relaxing – a fragrance for “night” rather than “evening.”
    On me, the sillage is on the soft side and the longevity is good. I have the spray cologne, the scented powder and a little solid stick fragrance that are all about 10 years old. Interestingly, the stick never smelled exactly the same as the others and I haven’t liked it as much. The bottle has been updated, but I don’t know if there’s been a corresponding formulation change.

    For some reason, Night Magic was my signature scent in high school. I don’t know what drew me, at 14, to something so unlike the perfumes of my peers (usually sugary, fruity; things I adore now but didn’t favor then). I had actually lost my current bottle for several years and recently rediscovered it- exactly the same heady aroma, sprayed cautiously into the air, lest it have gone rancid in our time apart.
    Again I was 14, applying the roll-on deodorant form too heavy-handed in the girls’ locker room after tennis practice, before Algebra. Again I was 15, spraying very deliberately in hopes that the “Evening Musk” would bewitch the pretty girl in the Chemistry class that I couldn’t hope to pass. Again I was 16, imagining myself smelling mysterious, dark, forbidden, sweet without sugar.
    I still like the smell quite a bit, but I don’t know if I’ll ever love a perfume as much as I loved Night Magic Evening Musk back then.

    If there is such a thing as musk powder this is it. Never think of musk as powdery. Add some aldehydes and incense? You know this is something deep and maybe dangerous. And yet there is that softness too. Amazing for the price. If you are a musk lover this is one you must try because it is really a nice spin on that note. It’s earthy and dirty .. sort of like JLO Glows very different sister. Night Magic she is older and much more of a cougar. Sweet innocent types this one may come with a warning. This one isn’t afraid to be in control at night. wink. Her flowers are under a night shade.

    Night Magic is a classic mix of musky vanilla-coconut, but there’s always been something else. I couldn’t quit put my finger on it until today.
    I picture myself inside of a stately Victorian home. I’m knocking at the door that opens to the library of a retired English professor. He sits and reads quietly, patiently waiting for his ‘after dinner drink’ of Brandy (barrel aged). He answers my tapping at the door and looks up from his book. From behind his brimmed spectacles he raises his head and says, “yes, come in.”
    As I enter the room I breathe in the sweet scent of untreated Virginia grown tobacco. The smoke trails up from his pipe, dancing in the air. Night Magic reminds me of what this room must smell like. Soft sugary smoke, a bit of Brandy, piles of books and the faint scent of a Professor who favors Ivory soap along with a splash of Old Spice aftershave.
    I heart Night Magic!!!
    If you like a warm Vanilla and Musk, this one is for you:)

    Good old night magic. Reminds me of inscent sticks burning in a new age/palm reader shop. Smells like a cheap nasty date.

    My most used fragrance these past few months, and I totally forgot to leave a review!
    I agree that NMEM and B&BW’s Moonlight Path smell similar with the muskiness and powderiness, but this lasts so much longer, and I get much more depth with the incense.
    The opening is really interesting; I’m assuming the aldehydes really bring the top notes forward for a while. I love to spray this gem on my clothes before leaving the house, and the musky-powder scent is so calming and relaxing to my senses. It makes me feel like I’m protected and cozy in warm blankets from the cold outside. If you spray this on your clothes, it will last quite a long time!
    I’m disappointed that Avon stopped formulating this certain bottle, apparently the new formulation has less staying power (the one in the clear rectangular bottle).

    I slather on the body cream and powder before bed, don’t ever get any complaints. Smells like a scent I may pick up on a mysterious evening.

  19. :

    5 out of 5

    Yes, this DOES smell identical to Moonlight Path, but it has much longer lasting power. How much you ask? I can still smell it the next day, without trying.
    Love, love, love….and so cheap!
    I even spray my wet clothing before I put it into the dryer, instead of using fabric softener sheets.

    This is way nicer than expected. More wearable than the body shop’s white musk. Maybe because it’s “older” and less popular? It really is powdery but not in a baby powder way. This one is a lot sexier than some of the other powdery ones making claims of innocence. I guess it’s the incense with the smoky vibe that makes it sexier evening wear. However its soft and gentle and I would wear it just as easily during the day. It’s cosy and comforting. Another great one for bedtime. For sleeping or not…………..

    This is one of my old favorites. I sold Avon in the ’90s when my kids were little and loved all the perfume samples I would get. There is a lovely “powder with depth” aspect to this fragrance and it always smelled so nice on me. Went on smooth and stayed true for hours. I haven’t owned this in years but recently smelled some at a flea market for nostalgia and realized I missed it.

  22. :

    3 out of 5

    I love this, worn it for years, it is actually better than body shop white musk, this has more depth.
    It is very easy to wear, not overpowering at all, but lasts well and is sexy and sensual.

  23. :

    5 out of 5

    When I smell this, I do get musk, but I don’t think it smells a lot like Body Shop’s White Musk. I think it’s a lot more mysterious than that. I like both, but I don’t find them to be that similar. I’m late to the party on this one. I’m late forties, but never wore this until I just got a bottle. It’s been out for years, and amazingly, Avon never discontinued it. They seem to do that with some of the good ones. I’m not huge on Avon perfumes, but there have been a few I’ve liked over the years.
    If you like the smell of this, you’ve found a gem, because it wears and wears. This just has amazing longevity, and I rarely get to say that. I can spray it, and still smell it way, way after most other perfumes have faded out. Plus, I think this is more than just musk, as I find it to be somewhat sultry too, yet it still holds onto that “comfy” vibe. I’m wondering if the lotion is worth trying? I might have to pick that up too, although not to make this wear longer, as it’s already a champ in that department.

    This is the fragrance I most associate with my mum. Sure, she loves her No. 5 and Poison the most, but she would save them for special occasions. She would go through bottles and bottles of this stuff as she’d wear it day to day, just casually. This is a polite, lightly powdery floral with some sweetness offered by the amber and depth from the musk and incense. Definitely of an era, but polite enough to be worn now. Really nice for the incredibly low price.

    I have such a love hate relationship with musk, a lot of musks people claim are clean actually smell skanky to me, I have no idea why.
    There are a few I really love, all the Narciso Rodriguez have been loves , as is SJP Lovely
    Those ones smell clean to me , this one goes on the love list, its spicy, musky and softly smokey.
    In this one, I do not smell skank nor do I smell clean, it is really well blended and balanced
    This is something I could see myself wearing anywhere, any time and it would never be inappropriate and I highly doubt I would ever get sick of it.
    I am so happy that another Fragrantican gave it to me to try out , I think this will more than likely replace SJP Lovely.
    I tested out another Avon perfume a few days ago, and was also very impressed, I think I need to pay more attention to the Avon reviews and place some orders!

    Queenie Joe’s review is spot on.
    ‘Sweet Honesty’s Goth Twin’
    Instead of citrus freshness, here we have a hint of incense and more of that ubiquitous Avon musk note. I am not even going to attempt to recommend this one to the powder resistant, but aside from this you can hardly go wrong. Avon has a gentle and simultaneously strong winner – womanly and yet dreamlike. There’s a reason Night Magic Evening Musk has been in production so long. 😀
    Yes, there’s a resemblance to the powdery Bath and Body Work’s classic, Moonlight Path. Yet while they are in the same general category, the notes are handled very differently. Moonlight Path smells much more modern, and from B&BW, whereas Night Magic smells talcum powder rich and is obviously NOT B&BW!
    If you like uncomplicated musks or powdery scents that offer comfort and simplicity, Please don’t miss this bargain. My first impression was hindered by dry, cold skin, but she has since grown to be a guilty pleasure. I like old fashioned fragrances, and this one fits the bill without exactly fitting into any particular era. Lovely.
    FYI – Do give the matching scented skin softener a go. Wonderful to put on face, neck, and hands at bedtime. Now THAT’S a budget treat!!!

    I’ve been buying Avon perfumes for years and I’d always overlooked Night Magic. Probably because of the inexpensive price I assumed it wouldn’t be nice. How wrong I was. Its nice to put on after an evening shower, then relax.

    I agree with the person who posted previously about it smelling a little like cold cream. When I first spritzed it after using a little of the body cream, it made me think of the old Pond’s cold cream with maybe a little incense thrown in. I like the scent of Ponds, but not sure if I want to wear it as a perfume No powdery or musky notes at all on me. A slight smell of what I can only describe as being like cigarettes, but in a good way.
    Not the sexy musk I was expecting, but not a bad scent either. Funny thing is that Avon’s Sweet Honesty has more “warmth” on me than this does.
    I bought it as part of a sale: Spray, cream, powder and roll on anti-perspirant together, for about $10. I chose it because of the reviews I read here.
    If you like the “smoky” hint of incense in your cologne you may like this, and I think it is light and “tame” enough to wear in the daytime. Worth the price, but not going to be my absolute favorite.
    Amending first review:
    Wore it to work today to see how my co-workers would react. Trust me they are not shy in telling you if you are “funky”. They noticed it when they got close, liked it, and asked me what it was. And one person nailed it on the head. She said it was Sweet Honesty’s Goth twin!

    I love it!
    I compared this to my Marilyn Miglin Pheromone Musk and the differences are:
    *MM Pheromone Musk is sweet, soft, musky, no powder smell, more of a “clean” smell. It has great longevity.
    *Avon Night Magic is less sweet,very musky,the ylang ylang really stands out in my opinion, a little bit powdery and less depth; probably due to the fact that it is a less concentration from the MM Pheromone Musk.
    But this does last pretty much all day though.Both make me extremely happy! I turn to each one equally!
    I wonder what would happen if they actually made this into an eau de parfum!
    Avon, please make all of your “classics” into parfums!!!That would just be so wonderful!!!
    edit:
    I also have White Musk by The Body Shop and it does smell very similar to Night Magic. So yay!

    I received this today and I can’t stop smelling my wrist. First off, the bottle is tall and sleek and just looks too cool on the vanity, like a futuristic skyscraper. The smell, oh the smell. Softer than expected for something with night in the name, but I like it. I smell flowers, amber, incense, musk…it’s glorious. Smells like it has been around for a while, which I suppose it has, but it has that modern creaminess that makes it wearable. I think it can be worn anytime of the day. Lasted through a session of dish washing, and it’s been a few hours since I sprayed it on. It’s not overpowering. Not bad for $5 USD. I quite like it. Very much.

  31. :

    I was enticed by the musk, incense, aldehydes and sandalwood – all of which I like. Finally succumbed to a $10 sale of cologne spray, perfumed cream and body powder. First tested the spray. The musk is unmistakably present. Mixed with the cool incense brings to mind baby powder. With my nose and wrist about a foot apart, I could only detect a hint of citrus. Closer up, the aldehydes and ylang-ylang appear but so faintly that it can be mistaken for citrus. Longevity is lacking for this cologne. Wonder why there is no eau de parfum or toilette??
    For aldehyde lovers, I suggest the cream instead of the spray. The aldehydes and ylang-ylang are both more prominent and enjoyable, the musk less intense and the baby powder scent is non-existent. Not headache-inducing. Definitely would stock up on cream than spray.
    One spray on me:
    – Sillage: a foot in first 15 minutes then can detect within 6 inches
    – Longevity: skin scent for 2 hours
    – Rating: spray 2/5, cream 3/5 but could be higher if sillage was bigger than nose-to-wrist

    This is such a pretty scent, I can’t believe I never tried it before. This will sound strange, when I first spray it smells to me like baby powder and baby shampoo combined, a soft cozy scent. Then the dry down, smells like either Jovan Musk or Jovan White Musk. My only complaint, I wish it was a parfum instead of a cologne.

  33. :

    4 out of 5

    To me this is a cold scent – cool in nature, it suits the blue packaging it is in, if this works on your chemistry you will pull a deep sultry ylang-ylang sandalwood vibe from this and it will smell divine It actually reminds me alot of the old Impulse Merely Musk body spray (this is meant in a nice way as it is the only Impulse I would ever wear myself). If you have my chemistry which requires warm orientals, warm notes and woody undertones it will smell like moth-balls, baby powder and rubbing alchohol and Soft musk might be better suited towards your chemistry – try before you buy a great scent on the right chemistry.

  34. :

    Love it. Night Magic Evening Musk is warm , cozy powdery and has just enough sweetness.To me the musk is tamed to be noticeable but not overpowering. It’s perfect for cold overcast days where you want to relax in a soft sweater , with a cup of coffee and a book. It’s wonderful . It lasts forever, projects well too. Bonus points for being on sale from time to time for $7.99 ! I don’t even like musk but I love this !

    This is a nice gentle scent for a high school dance.

    I LOVED this scent as a child in the 80’s. My mom sold Avon, and I always had a bottle of this on-hand. Didn’t wear it much since I was so young, only at home. It’s name suits it perfectly. It’s extremely musky and potent, definitely a night-time perfume. When I was little, it reminded me of baking cookies, so it has a sweet undertone. Good stuff. (I can’t speak for what is on the market today, so my description would be for the vintage juice.)

    One of my faves from Avon; this is my bedtime perfume. I spray it on and sleep the night away.

  38. :

    4 out of 5

    I have several Avon scents, as I find that they can be a great quality for the price–if they work for your chemistry, and clean musks work for mine. If you are familiar with Avon scents, Night Musk stands with Soft Musk and Odyssey. Night Musk does not have the light, powdery rose note that Soft does, and it is not as floral (LOTV) as Odyssey, but they all share a similar musk character.
    Night Musk is a tiny bit dark from the incense, and a tiny bit light from the aldehydes; overall is a very enjoyable but typical musk. It’s not multidimensional and doesn’t develop on the skin–it doesn’t even seem to warm up on my skin, as other musks do, which I would say makes this a “cooler” musk than some, a tad bit aloof.
    Sillage is modest, longevity about 3-4 hours before I wanted to refresh it, which is poor for a musk on my skin.
    Edit: well moisturized skin is key. Lasts 6+ hours on moist skin. The projection and longevity improve too. This is a lovely musk, deep and light at the same time.

    I agree with the others that have stated that this is a comforting scent. I like my perfumes to be loud and noticeable most days, but when I’m settling down in my flannels for the night I often reach for this. I have the lotion and the powders and if I use all three I can easily smell this when I wake up the next day.
    I don’t find it to be synthetic or cheap, the musks are prevalent but I also pick up a powdery scent although I’m not sure why. I do not regret buying this one, You can find it extremely reasonable on ebay and for the price it is a nice addition to my wardrobe.

    I was raised by my Grandma, and my aunt was an Avon lady. I remember spending hours perusing the catalog, with the scents that sounded so sophisticated. Many of my first scent memories are Avon – the Soft Pink bubble bath, and the perfumed liquid deodorant (which is still nice.) Night magic Evening Musk seemed so exotic at 14, purchased for my first high school dance. It’s a simple scent really – musk and light woods, with a little smoke. Nothing too overpowering, but just right for a girl on the edge of adulthood (in those days, who knows now… probably some screaming melon concoction or something.) I bought a new bottle of this last year, and I can report it is nearly identical – maybe a touch more synthetic in the musks, but still nice and soothing. I’m so glad Avon does a decent job preserving their classics.

  41. :

    Oh this is lovely. I think perhaps the Evening in Night Magic Evening Musk is because it smells somewhat like cold cream. Evening in the sense of being a soothing, soft part of your nightly ritual.
    This is a thick and creamy musk. Super powdery. Soft ylang and sandalwood. Incense is very mild, just a hint of smoke.
    I find this scent extremely comforting.

  42. :

    This one takes me back 20 years and was the first perfume I owned. I used the whole bottle then moved onto Poison, but it brings back fond memories and I really enjoyed wearing it. I wonder what I would think of it now? I’m surprised it’s still available after all these years, maybe I should give into nostalgia and get another bottle.

  43. :

    4 out of 5

    This has been around for a few decades and still there is nothing out there quite like this. A musky scent but powdered up a bit and yet with a depth that is unusually light. I don’t know how else to describe it. This is not a cloying fragrance but it does have a youthful sweetness about it and there’s a sparkle there also. Priced right as all classic Avons are. Really unique, long lasting and easy to wear.

  44. :

    Out of all of the Avon Oldies that they have still this is the best! I don’t smell anything floral maybe a little vanilla course this could be cause of the smokyness. This is Avon at its finest !

  45. :

    3 out of 5

    Smokey incense and delicate musk predominate this scent. It’s soft, subtle and powdery, and I get a good strong dose of ylang ylang with this. I don’t think there is anything particularly “evening” about this. It’s so soft, subtle, and comforting, it can be worn anytime. This combination of notes is very calming to me, perhaps because there are no hard edges, nothing sharp or aggressive. It’s a grown up comfort scent.

    I’m so happy this one is listed now! One of my favourite go to’s for 15 years! I used to take my mom’s talc and wear it after the pool in the summer when I was a girl. I love the powdery smokey essence of this fragrance that is subtle and feminine, that is not too heavy or dated. I still wear this one regularly all year round as it remains one of my favourite Avon’s to this day. I always have a tube of talc or a bottle of this in my collection at all times and probably will until the day they stop making it.

  47. :

    4 out of 5

    I mentioned that my aunt sold Avon so I have this in my collection thanks to her. I have to admit that I love this! I am not even a big fan of incense and musk but this is a really good fragrance. I would think this of a flower that you would lean in close at a church after they have light up some incense after mass. Not the really heavy kind of incense like frankincense either this is soft and romantic. I am surprised there is no mention of vanilla and myrrh in this? Anyways, it ends up in a baby powdery, light musky, sandalwood smell. I would consider this a light oriental fragrance and I think it is too subtle for evenings. Although I would wear this on a date where I would want someone to lean in for a warm hug and kiss goodnight. I enjoy wearing this and can see how it has been around over 30 years. I personally think this is a discreet smell and it doesn’t last long on me but I layer it with the cream and voila the magic happens, so thumbs up. I hope it becomes magical for you as well.

    Night Magic evening musk is an Avon classic perfume! I wore it in the past and its very complex but at the same time lghtly to use everyday! Not boring like some 80’s fragrances may be a little mature for my age but who cares!!! Balsamic, aldehydic musk parfum. The name is just right and the bottle looks elegant and the fragrance has a good staying power! I’ll look for it when it comes on sale! 🙂

    Finally in the database! I’m so glad I can now give a review of this historical fragrance by Avon 🙂
    I own the first version from Eighties named Night Musk – that once was of my dearest grandma – but I’ve read somewhere notes are the same or slightly different (doing a little research I’ve also discovered this is a very loved fragrance and is considered as one of the staples-best selling from Avon brand): my bottle looks identical in shape but Night Musk’s one is dark purple, with the name of the fragrance written in cursive.
    Coming to the scent, Night Musk/NMEM is not a terribly complex or conservative fragrance as it could seem on first applications, I guess the aldehydes and white floral accord in the opening could smell quite weird and harsh to some.. but as soon as the vaguely balmy rose in the heart unveils I get kind of a velvety and relaxing feel from it, reminding of a soft wool coat in which I protect myself from the cold outside.. on my skin jasmine and ylang ylang are not prominent, I can just say there’s a subtle exoticness that can be easily due to some spicy notes mixed with floral nuances, though it’s not easy to point out a single note (cloves maybe?). The musky-powdery quality of this EDT gets evident in the drydown, where animalic and sultry notes melt with rich woody and ambery accents, very typical of Avon’s musky launches.. musk here is enhanced and made less predictable by a diffusive and smooth incense note that, to me, feels more like a delicate smokiness than like the proper intense, church-recalling resin.
    There’s definitely something classic about this fragrance, surely I would use the word “retro” to describe it. Definitely it makes me think of velvety violet dresses worn on romantic dinners during the Eighties. Would I get the same feeling if I knew the fragrance was launched nowadays? Who knows 🙂
    The projection and longevity are quite good, I surely can smell it on me after several hours.
    I’m pretty sure my grandma would be proud of me by reading this review – of course I should read to her in Italian – so this is mostly for Her and in Her memory.
