Which Should You Buy?
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.
Match Perfumes No.31 dupes Frederic Malle's Musc Ravageur, a spiced vanillic musk. The bergamot-lavender-cinnamon opening is a fair echo, but the amber-vanilla heart is sweeter and less nuanced, and the musk base fades sooner than the original's famously long, skin-warm trail.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
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
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.
