Looking for a little bit of useless grooming trivia? Well, here it comes anyway.
Grooming Lounge recently starting carrying a terrific brand, Malin+Goetz. From that brand, the Grooming Guys, traditionally not big wearers of colognes or EDT’s, took an immediate liking to the Malin+Goetz Synthesized Musk. It’s a very subtle, warm scent that lasts forever and smells great. Anyway, when one of us was spraying a bit into the air in our office to cover up a particularly noxious scent left behind from an not-to-be-named co-worker’s lunch (Sophia Lan), another co-worker posed the query…
Co-Worker: “Where does Musk come from?”
Grooming Guys: “Well Francis, Musk is a sexual secretion obtained from a certain sack on a male musk deer.”
Co-Worker: “I think I’m gonna’ hurl. So, I’ve been spraying Mr. Bambi on myself for the last three weeks?”
Grooming Guys: “Don’t get ahead of yourself Francis… this is Synthesized Musk. Pretty much nobody obtains musk that old-fashioned way anymore, as it was particularly cruel to the deer. The whole scent is made in a lab and no actual deers were groped in the making of said scent.”
This knowledge regarding the origins of the original musk scent should wow friends, family and co-workers alike. No need to say thanks. It’s our pleasure.
