Musc Ravageur is Maurice Roucel's great amber fragrance for Frédéric Malle, one the house presents as the hottest in its collection. An unabashed sensuality, built by a perfumer who sees every fragrance as a hymn to desire.
Bergamot and mandarin give a luminous start, softened by a touch of lavender. The heart brings together amber, vanilla and musk, then sandalwood and musks extend the trail on the skin. A musky amber, warm and enveloping.

Musc Ravageur in detail
Frédéric Malle publishes its fragrances like books, under the name of their perfumer. Musc Ravageur, signed by Maurice Roucel, is a burning musky amber, which the house lists among both its women's and its men's fragrances.
The official pyramid opens on bergamot, mandarin and lavender, an aromatic freshness that lasts only a moment. The heart brings together amber, vanilla and musk, a warm, soft, enveloping material. The base pairs sandalwood and musk again, which extend this warmth on the skin.
Musc Ravageur is worn in the evening, in autumn and winter: a dinner, an evening out, a date. It will suit anyone who loves sensual, warm fragrances without flowers.
Three amber fragrances in our catalogue share many of its materials: Alexandria II by Xerjoff brings together lavender, amber, musk, sandalwood and vanilla; Ambre 114 by Histoires de Parfums pairs sandalwood, amber, vanilla and musk with spices; APOM by Maison Francis Kurkdjian finds lavender, vanilla and musk again.
