+[[Musk Sticks]] are one of my [[favourite|favourite]] lollies. I think the perfume model is set by Guerlain's //Shalimar//: musks, rose, ambers, vanilla, but not sure of the relationship between perfume and musk sticks. There's some history of musk flavoured lollies in this article: [[https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-03-31/musk-sticks-are-one-of-australias-most-hated-foods/10953712|Love it or hate it, the musk stick is one of Australia's most misunderstood treats]], by Kit Kriewaldt.
+One's I've tried and liked are //Powdered Veil// by Miller Harris, which has a nice bitter rhubarb element, but has been discontinued; //Musk// by Lorenzo Villoresi, which is maybe the closest to the sweet; //Musc Ravageur// by Frederic Malle, which is somewhere between the two, but definitely closer to //Musk//. I guess there's also //Divin'Enfant// by Etat Libre d'Orange, though less so. And of course there are many more I haven't tried yet.

 Fragrantica is the site that seems to come up most when you look for perfumes. But it's owned by queerphobic, anti-vax, right-wing dickheads, and seems to attract a bunch of those types too (forums are rank). Some alternatives are:
