Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Musc Ravageur Eau de Parfum

A legendary, carnal musk that wraps its wearer in a cloud of cinnamon, vanilla and animalic warmth. Not for the timid, Musc Ravageur is both refined and primal, decadent and magnetic.

Our Verdict - BLV Notte Eau de Parfum

This discontinued gem divides opinion sharply from 'masterpiece' to 'baby powder and baby wipes'. Many mourn its loss and praise its daring originality, while others find its unique blend, particularly the vodka and chocolate, to be off-putting or lacking in projection.

Season and Occasion Fit

Musc Ravageur Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter

The enveloping warmth, spice and richness make Musc Ravageur a natural fit for fall and winter, while its aromatic and musky facets lend just enough brightness for cooler spring days. Too heavy and animalic for most summer wear.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

The sensual, bold and opulent character makes this best for romantic evenings or formal occasions. Its projection and animalic warmth can overwhelm in close quarters like the office or gym.

BLV Notte Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Office Casual

Its moderate projection and unique character make it suitable for dates and formal evening wear, lending an air of sophistication without shouting. While some find it versatile enough for the office with light application, its boozy and dark notes might be too distinctive for a conservative environment, and its warmth limits its use in sport.
