Matiere Premiere French Flower

French Flower is a love letter to tuberose — the intoxicating, narcotic-white bloom captured as if you were stood in a French flower field at night. A bright opening of pear and Nigerian ginger lifts the florals before a lush heart of tuberose, orange blossom and Chinese tea takes hold, all carried on a smooth, long-lasting ambroxan base.

Sensual and modern rather than heavy or old-fashioned, it's a standout choice for anyone who loves white florals but wants something with a lighter, more contemporary edge.

Top Notes: Pear, Nigerian Ginger Heart Notes: Tuberose, Orange Blossom, Chinese Tea Base Notes: Ambroxan

Being upfront about the comparison

Velvet Desire is our own original composition inspired by Matiere Premiere French Flower — it is not a clone or a replica, and no inspired-by fragrance is. What you get is the same feminine scent direction and note structure, blended by hand in the UK as a long-lasting Extrait de Parfum.

Worn side by side you would recognise the family resemblance straight away, and you would also notice differences in the opening and in how it settles on your skin. We think that is a fair trade at this price, but we would rather you know exactly what you are buying.
