Scent Profile:
Fleur du Mal opens with the soft fruity-floral character of osmanthus, offering subtle apricot-like nuances that immediately feel refined and inviting. The heart blooms with rich jasmine sambac, adding a creamy and luminous floral presence. As it dries down, a smooth suede accord emerges, bringing warmth, texture, and a sensual edge that contrasts beautifully with the delicate florals. The overall scent is elegant, intimate, and sophisticated—floral at its core, yet enriched by a luxurious suede finish that gives it a distinctive niche character.
