Musc Ravageur enhances the magnetic aspect of musk with amber, vanilla, patchouli and sandalwood, at the total exclusion of floral notes.
Having caused a scandal when the perfume first appeared in 2000, Musc Ravageur is now celebrated in all its sensuousness as the Sistine Chapel of the soft Amber tradition.
In deference to some of the Rococo period’s most loved icons, Noble VIII Magnolia draws on the sweet femininity of the pink used throughout the era and on the delicacy of the beloved moss rose; echoes of the frivolity of the time are picked up in the use of sweetpea and in the Chinoiserie design resplendent on the packaging. While the top notes of bergamot, cassis and mandarin provide a refreshingly green tang, the heart notes, compromising of a combination of rose, magnolia, cinnamon and clove give it a heady spiciness that shrouds the wearer in a veil of intoxicating fragrance. A woody base of sandalwood and oakmoss give it a gently earthy finish.
She was to become renowned through her androgynous pen name, George Sand. A writer of genius, great lover and committed, she was the incarnation of the first modern woman. For her contemporary heiresses, a perfume reflecting her generosity and sensuality.
An amber flower bouquet, in remembrance of George Sand’s bond uniting her with nature, warmed with heady spices and colored by sweet fruits.
The carnal sensuality of a voluptuous bunch of spices. In the trail of this oriental gourmand, mystery is tinted with eroticism that the mythical year of 1969 evokes without a blush.
1969, an erotic year…this perfume represents the sexual revolution and evokes an intense sensuality, accentuated by white musk and intense chocolate.
