Paper is not the same as skin.
First of all: I'm new here and therefore still inexperienced in testing and commenting on fragrances. So I might as well tell you about my rookie mistake. I recently received some samples (the first of my life purchased from a "souk"), including Musc Ravageur
from Frédéric Malle
As I suddenly found myself "confronted" with some samples after a really beautifully packaged shipment from a souk partner, I was immediately a little overwhelmed. And since I had already "contaminated" my left and right hand with other fragrances, Musc Ravageur only made it onto a strip of paper that I had organized beforehand.
The scent smelled pleasant, but it didn't immediately take hold of me. I put the strip aside. After further study of the fragrance here in this beautiful forum, I consciously applied it to my skin again last night after a fresh shower, as an evening and night fragrance, so to speak.
Even in the evening, the sensation was much nicer and warmer, with amber, musk, cinnamon and vanilla enveloping my receptors in a cuddly and protective way. Similar to a gentle mixture of roasted almonds, toffee and a hint of candy floss. However, not repulsive or synthetic, but quite elegant and fitting.
Breathing the fragrance on my skin gave me new impulses, it showed me that a fragrance also requires dedication and patience to get to know it in its fullness.
My conclusion: I am impressed by the longevity and sillage, the fragrance develops very naturally and balanced on the skin. A quick strip of paper is no substitute for skin and time. Just like in real life: love and lust are two different things. Learned something again.
Musc Ravageur has taken me in. A beautiful fragrance, more for the evening, for festive occasions and romantic hours. Sensual and festive. I like it.
