The flattering honey rose
Quelques Fleurs Royale found its way to me as a free sample in an order. Very curious I immediately rummaged on Parfumo to have a look at the fragrance.
Hmm... Rose, then... and not too close... well, there were no surprises with that name... i would never have chosen it... but well, I always like to try something new No sooner said than done, of course I tested it
Scent:
At the beginning, the citrus and fruity notes are recognizable, but these are immediately accompanied by a strong rose and are not particularly persistent.
Little by little jasmine and tuberose are added, the honey is also very perceptible and plays around the flowers, one almost thinks of candied petals.
The honey gives the fragrance a creaminess that reminds of a rich, rosy body lotion. Definitely an expensive body lotion. I would even have guessed that it contains not only honey but also beeswax, because the scent of honey is very rich, thick, waxy, sweet and creamy The Sillage is not earth-shattering, but in its range it matches the well-groomed body lotion impression.
The flowers smell very natural, almost a bit green-juicy, yet the scent is round and soft and warm, enveloping and cosy.
Vanilla and sandalwood are only accessories and are woven into the background, but here they enhance the warm-sweet feeling of security.
As the fragrance progresses, the musk becomes stronger and stronger, so that the fragrance loses some of its warmth towards the end and becomes cleaner instead.
Conclusion:
I am very glad that this fragrance has found its way to me, because actually Rose belongs to my declared archenemies, at least as far as fragrances are concerned.
In most fragrances I find the rose too artificial, too pungent, too heavy, taking my breath away and over-present.
Quite different with Quelques Fleurs Royale.
For me, the rose makes up the largest part of the flowers to be perceived, but together with the other flowers, it makes up a fresh, natural bouquet.
Due to the sweet honey the flowers are beautifully embedded in a sweet, creamy honey bed, nothing stings, the flowers are soft and smooth, it is really fun to wear this fragrance. For me it is a mood enhancer, it is consistently bright and friendly, like a sunny spring day and so I see it as wearable during the day.
I don't know the old version and I can't judge the changes, but with the current version of Quelques Fleurs Royale you have a neat, creamy, flattering scent to feel good about.
