Isn't it strange? I definitely get an animalic feel from this but tons of vanilla also and not much spice. I really want to smell it on someone else now! hehe
I think the reformulation is better ! The harsh opening is gone and they rounded out the bitter clove note . What a masterpiece . Less is more with this one is longevity is thru the roof
I happened to spray this for the first time this season last night! It was a bit of an impulse buy for me last winter - I already had L de Lolita, which I do think is in the same wheelhouse - but I love it so much! I describe it as an "oily" vanilla. I get more fresh vanilla/cola spices when I inhale, but I feel the cozy furriness supporting the whole thing.
Oh really? There's a Lempicka that smells like this? Interesting. I don't really get on with her scents that much. I wish I got more spices from this but, as my skin LOVES vanilla this goes almost gourmand on me. :)
@@pixienyx They are. And they both have the longevity that rivals Duracell batteries. My skin eats fragrances and L lempicka lasts forever and a day on me.
Hello! I really hear people say it a lot, in reference to things that aren't actually musky at all! Musk is really quite a clean note too so, hmmm. Baffling
I have the 2019 version of it and I mainly get clove and cinnamon in the opening. Later on, it turns really gourmand with vanilla Would love to smell the old version. Lovely review, as always
Dat intro tho xDDDD I LOOOVE MuscRav! I have a full bottle. In fact Roucel is one of my favorite noses in general, if not my favorite. Sure, how you react to this fragrance depends on your perception. I do think that some look for a "dirtiness" that isn't really there though. The people who say this perfume is so animalic it's disgusting. Roucel himself said that there's no musk in this fragrance...! Or at least I've heard. I definitely get a lot of clove, but I'm fine with that. It's dense and moist for me, not fluffy or powdery at all. More like a pound cake. Maybe at the VERY end of the day I can sense a tiny tiny animalic twinge, but that might just be my hair >_> Maybe I'm bad at smelling those notes. I think I got the reformulated bottle because it was made in 2014. Sorry for the long comment, I was typing on my phone the whole time I was watching the video hehe ^_^' Clove, vanilla, and lavender are my favorite notes and muscrav has them all! Edit: I watched his interview! Him explaining the glands to the interviewer lmao... Maybe there is some musk in it then?
Hehe I LOVE long replies!!! I definitely get an animalic tone from this but it's tamed by all the vanilla. This one is so super sweet on me it's almost gourmand. Interesting stuff for sure! :)
I have the original discontinued oil version of this. It's smell like a cinnamon cookie with a bitter dirty musk. They must have taken alot of the spices out in your version.
I recently purchased a sample of this. At first, I loved it, but in the dry down it becomes very boring to me. I have not found a Frédéric Malle fragrance that is worth the money yet. At first sniff, I thought this was going to be the one, but I was wrong. If it smelled like the opening for the entire wear length, I would have to have it...no, I would already have it.
i would love to sniff it! some people say it similar to L by lolita lempika...if you want to smell animaliq musk you should try original musk by kehils. thank's for sharing!
Musc Ravageur on me is mostly vanilla/cinnamon. It gives off a gourmand vibe and nothing animalic. I don't get the dirtiness others talk about.

What does animalic mean?
@@entothevee smell like an animal on heat?

ouch110 Fragrance Reviews I wouldn't say they're dupes, but they're both by the same nose and I definitely think they're close!
Ah cool, thanks. I'll sniff it out next time. :)
Same perfumer. L is a slightly more femme version. But they are pretty similar.
@@pixienyx They are. And they both have the longevity that rivals Duracell batteries. My skin eats fragrances and L lempicka lasts forever and a day on me.
“Something furry dipped in vanilla” - That is the best description I’ve heard for this fragrance!
Can't say i find it dirty but wish i did. Still, one of my all time favourites that i prefer in the warm weather.
I can smell a tiny bit of dirty musk going on in here, but it's only really in the wet stages, it's a strange one this one but I really like it. :)

@@hocineted7594 go post your question on the fragrantica forum, you will get more help there. But wear whatever you want whenever you want.
@@hocineted7594yes anytime you want wear it
The opening and heart are gorgeous. If it stayed that way, and had better longevity, I'd be in love! I hope you had a great time on holiday!
I did thanks!! So sad to be back in the cold but YAY....it's Christmas! :)

When people who don't have much knowledge about fragrances say a perfume smells "musky", they really mean "heavy".

Vanilla/cinnamon powder puff...you hit it on the head/nail

I need to smell the Lolita one now!!
RavaGEUr !!
That's what I said right? haha. :)
the title is not right, you've written "ravaguer"
...and yes the prononciation is right, in french a "G" in front of a "E" is like a "J".
Ahhhh ok thanks! I'll change it now.
After 4 hours it's fade out
NEVER!
Still smell it on my skin after 16 hours and after showering
every perfume is dependent on your skin chemistry - so that is amateurish on your part
What is amateurish?
