For Him Musc Santal is an intense eau de parfum for men by Narciso Rodriguez, a new chapter in the For Him collection launched in 2026. Created by Florian Gallo, it sets the freshness of juniper, clary sage and cardamom against a heart of three musks and a base of creamy sandalwood, in a frosted gray glass bottle topped with wood.
Ludovic Bonnet, writing for Masculin.com, sees For Him Musc Santal as the most seductive variation in the collection, precisely because it plays on contrasts and will not please everyone.
Olfastory’s review
A divisive fragrance
On March 2, 2026, Ludovic Bonnet, writing for Masculin.com, judges that Musc Santal stands out in the For Him collection. He describes it as at once warm and cold, woody and creamy, sensual and divisive, and counts that last trait as a quality.
It is because it will not please everyone, he writes, that it seems more seductive to him than the brand’s previous fragrances, Bleu Noir included, which he nonetheless calls excellent.
A textured reading
In the lineage of Bleu Noir, which already explored musk through depth and mystery, he reads Musc Santal as a more textured, more contrasted version, faithful to the collection’s original signature.
