Fleur des Fleurs
Fleur des Fleurs
Fleur des Fleurs is a luxurious and aromatic tribute to the natural beauty and aromatic bounty of Bali, the island of flowers. Celebrating the Ylang-Ylang, known as the ‘Flower of Flowers’ for its rich, layered fragrance and its profound benefits for the mind and body, this perfume also honors the enchanting Jasmine, the queen of the night, which unfurls its intoxicating scent at sunset.
The fragrance opens with top notes of bergamot, saffron, and grapefruit. Bergamot provides a fresh, citrusy introduction, adding a bright, sparkling quality that captures the vivacity of the tropics. Saffron introduces a slightly exotic, richly spicy undertone, enhancing the complexity of the aroma, while grapefruit lends a tangy sharpness that deepens the initial freshness.
Transitioning to the heart of the fragrance, Fleur des Fleurs blossoms with a floral symphony of jasmine, ylang-ylang, tuberose, and wisteria. Jasmine, with its potent, sweetly seductive aroma, dominates as it blooms through the cool evening air. Ylang-Ylang complements with its rich, floral, and slightly fruity notes, adding depth and a soothing quality. Tuberose offers a heavy, sweet, and enchanting fragrance, while wisteria provides a lighter, subtly sweet floral scent, enhancing the bouquet with its delicate grace.
The base of the fragrance is a robust blend of benzoin tears, sandalwood, vanilla, amber, and oud wood. Benzoin tears contribute a comforting, warm resinous aroma with hints of vanilla, which smoothly transitions into the creamy, rich sweetness of vanilla itself. Sandalwood adds a creamy, soft, and milky wooden scent that grounds the fragrance in a solid yet elegant foundation. Amber provides a cozy, enveloping warmth, and oud wood rounds out the base with its deep, musty, and woody character, adding a luxurious, intense finish to the perfume.
