Product Details Launched in 2000 Frédéric Malle’s Musc Ravageur Eau de Parfum was a turning point in the history of amber scents. It’s a sensual perfume powerful yet perfectly controlled dramatic and mysterious. Composed by Maurice Roucel as an “act of seduction and generosity” Musc Ravageur is an uncompromising scent which runs against current fads. Its explosive departure of bergamot tangerine and cinnamon is set against a backdrop of vanilla musk and amber for a sexy turbulent perfume in a word: ravageur. Maurice Roucel joined the Chanel laboratories as a chemist in 1973. Self-taught he defines himself as an "explorer that wanders through formulas". At the time he started breaking down then studying each formula and each raw material from a part aesthetic part chemist perspective that still is his strength today. His generous writing is often based on musk notes white flowers or amber. That is how he obtains the opulent sensuality that is his signature. Top notes: bergamot mandarin lavender Middle notes: amber vanilla musk Base notes: sandalwood musk How To Use Frédéric Malle believes people should spray perfume where they wish to do so. Some people wear them on their neck or under their wrist while others prefer to splash or spray fragrances on their chest. Layering across scents is not recommended as our perfumes are each an olfactive work of art crafted to stand alone and apart.
