Fleur de Vanille, belongs to the Les Naturelles series by Fragonard, it is classified as an oriental vanilla scent, however, to my notes, maybe it is because of the vanilla, it is quite a decent typical quasi-singular vanilla scent with quite a bit gourmand charm.
The start of Fleur de Vanille is quite pungent, sweet, quite editable in a cupcake-way with a tiny bit citrusy hint. Somehow, it reminds me of the opening of the Vanilla parfum oil by The Body Shop.
After a while, the citrusy note is gone and Fleur de Vanille settles to a rich, well-blended portion of non-sweetened chocolate/cocoa, something a bit floral like those faint floral scent you can smell from baby powder, something a bit nutty-woody, and quite yet beautiful vanilla.
The final dry down is quite nice and cosy, just like slightly nutty sponge cake, and it is really close to the skin, somewhat makes this vanilla scent quite a nice skin scent.
If you have tried most several of the Fragonard offerings and know how long approximately they last (or should I say, how they not last), then the longevity of Fleur de Vanille would not give you nasty surprise either. However, even though there’s no projection after about a maximum of 3 hours, it lingers around for quite a long while.
Fleur de Vanille is the only Fragonard scent I actually really enjoyed out of the handful of the Fragonard perfumes I’ve tried so far. I actually would recommend it to anyone who’s looking for a really inoffensive vanilla scent which stays rather close.
