Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Desire lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Musc Ravageur.

AromaPassions sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Musc Ravageur's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $69 per 100ml it costs 87% less than Musc Ravageur — the 3rd cheapest of 5 twins we can price.

Value9.7
Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength AromaPassions publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

What it is chasing: bergamot, mandarin and lavender up top, cinnamon and clove in the middle, musk, vanilla and sandalwood underneath — the shape of Frédéric Malle Musc Ravageur.

Top

  • bergamot
  • mandarin
  • lavender

Heart

  • cinnamon
  • clove

Base

  • musk
  • vanilla
  • sandalwood
For skin worth getting close to. Warm cinnamon and clove sink into vanilla and musk — intimate, spiced and quietly ravishing.
