What does Raven smell like?

Mandarin orange and rhubarb open it bright and fruity. In the heart, pink lotus and peony add a soft floral note. As it dries, musk, patchouli and blond woods come forward and settle it into a woody, earthy depth.

Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind and summer chosen least. It leans towards evenings and nights out, though leisure and business also get votes. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters mostly read it as feminine. Dior Midnight Poison (Eau de Parfum) and Atelier Rebul Patchouli d'Or have a close profile.
