  BOUCHERON CANCION: Ouragan (Irresistible). What a wonderful elixir, this magical feminine potion with masculine touches and character. It conveys an elegance that reaches whoever wears it, strong as the woman who wears it, made to bewitch. For me, it better reflects the Eva Green campaign for Dior (Midnight Poison, which in my opinion is a bottle of aftershave for women). Full of flowers, fruits, woods, incense, and resins, but in the end it leaves a scent worthy of royalty. One of my favorites.

  Wow! I received a sample of this fragrance (thanks Shiseido) and I must say it’s one of the known ‘strong’ ones. It smells quite like a heady jasmine paired with sandalwood, ylang-ylang, lily-of-the-valley root, and (unfortunately for me) the dreaded asafoetida that I hate so much. I also sense citrus notes of orange and sweet lemon, along with a timid geranium; one could say that’s the freshest part. Narcissus, cherry, carnation, civet, neroli, vanilla, benzoin, cold amber, moss, etc. (you do the math) complete the mix. Not woody, nor with an incense hint… it’s purely floral-civet with the ‘oriental’ combo of benzoin-vanilla-SANDALWOOD, so common in the 80s and 90s. It’s all a matter of taste, but I’d say it’s for nighttime use or cold weather. I’ve heard this perfume on elegant ladies, almost always at weddings or similar events… and the truth is it leaves quite a sillage and makes them noticeable (I repeat) elegant and dignified… but for me it would be hard to use, first because it makes me dizzy (which is very rare for me) and that gives me anxiety and general discomfort. I love intense perfumes, but this one is ‘too much’ for me 😀 … what a pity, because I admit it smells good on my skin.

  Ah, this is it! I had this sample and confused it with Boucheron Femme Eau de Parfum (2012). Yes, I agree with user azuriiita: ‘it’s one of those we know as strong.’ A proper oriental, old-school (as azuriiita also says). I wouldn’t recommend it for very young women, but it’s certainly an elegant and formal fragrance. User pablOSO also hits the nail on the head when he says: ‘Boucheron is a perfume full of flowers, fruits, woods, incense, and resins… but that ultimately leaves us with a scent worthy of royalty’.

  I tried this perfume today; it’s the latest reformulation, the blue cone cap version; I’ve never tested previous versions to compare. I’ve loved it so much; if spring had a scent, it would surely be this: super soft, feminine, creamy, and fresh at the same time. The dry-down is also very good, soft vanilla with a halo of incense and tonka bean. I’ll try it again, and if I feel the same way, it will end up in my hands 🙂

  This was Selena Quintanilla’s perfume according to her husband, Chris Pérez! <3 Just for that, I'll have it someday.

  If elegance had a scent, it would be this one: such an oriental, spicy, and sweet perfume that smells like divine glory from the East. It’s totally and absolutely rich for cold days and fresh evenings and nights, lasting eternities on clothes and skin, lingering where you pass and marking everything you touch; simply something as beautiful as exquisite.

  Warm, complex, with that personality that gives charisma, determination, and presence to the woman who wears it. An effluvium of warm notes with a touch of glamour. Perfect for autumn and winter. With elegant airs, powerful sillage, and superior longevity. I remember when it came out in the 80s it was an adult, mature perfume; now I perceive it as more fruity. When I first smelled it, it was more of a cluster of flowers and animalics. It has rejuvenated (subjective impression). It looks great on women of all ages with a formal style. It has a touch of classicism that fits perfectly for galas, dinners, and important events. A perfume that ‘dresses’ the woman. Superlative fragrance.

  Warm, complex, and with that personality that gives charisma, determination, and presence to whoever wears it. A touch of warm notes with a certain glamour. Ideal for autumn and winter. It has an elegant air, powerful sillage, and superior longevity. When it came out in the eighties, it was for mature women, but now I perceive it as more fruity. At first, I smelled it denser in flowers and animal notes, but it has rejuvenated (my subjective opinion). It looks great on women of all ages with a formal style. It has a classicism that fits perfectly at galas or important dinners. It is a perfume that “dresses” the woman. Superlative fragrance.

  I was in middle school, spent a lot of time at my best friend’s house, and I was 13. Once I walked into the bathroom and saw on her vanity this beauty. A bottle that looked like a jewel: intense yellow liquid, a sapphire blue cap like a semi-precious stone, gold edges, and velvet glass. Without shame, I took it and applied it. Since then, I used it every time I was there. I didn’t have perfume before CK One; my mom’s scents seemed like they were for older people, but THIS was something else. I heard someone over 13 might not like it, but who cared. I felt luxurious and sophisticated, even if I didn’t quite know what that meant. I just knew it made me feel special. It defined me. One day my friend said, ‘Hey, I’m not sure, but I think the one you’re wearing is one of the expensive ones.’ I didn’t stop. Now, in my early 30s, I remember the elegance of the scent; I’ve seen the notes, but they don’t matter anymore. I just want to feel like I did at 13: important, special, and sumptuous. I hope to get it soon and live the magic over and over again.

  I was in middle school and spent a lot of time at my best friend’s house; I was 13. One day I entered the bathroom and on the vanity where her mom kept her cosmetics, creams, and perfumes, there was this beauty. A bottle that looked like a jewel, the intense yellow color of the liquid, the royal blue cap like a semi-precious stone, the gold of the edges, and the velvet glass. Without any shame, I took it and applied it without hesitation. Since then, I did the same every time I was at that house. I had never worn any perfume except CK One, and my mom’s perfumes seemed old-fashioned and for grown-ups. But THIS was something else. Yes, it smelled like someone over 13, but it didn’t matter. I felt luxurious and sophisticated, even without having a clear grasp of these concepts. I just knew that after using it, I felt like someone much more special. It defined me. One day, my friend, who knew I was wearing my mom’s perfume, said, ‘Hey, I’m not sure, but I think the one you’re wearing is expensive.’ I didn’t stop. Now, in my early 30s, I still remember the elegance of the scent; I’ve seen its notes, but they don’t matter anymore. I just want to feel like I was at 13 again: important, special, and sumptuous. I hope to get it soon and live the magic over and over again…

  In my search for 80s fragrances, I found similarities: perfumes that aren’t identical but share an olfactive structure. There are correlations between the florals of the decade: L’Insolent (1986), Senso (1987), Kenzo (1988), and Boucheron (1988) all head in the same direction. L’Insolent is a talc-dusted white floral, Senso more balsamic, and Kenzo more spicy (all with neroli and fruits like peach; in Senso, plum shines). Clandestine (1986) could also fit, but its grape, honey, and rose set it apart. Boucheron takes it a step further, adding that animalistic floral touch with a sensual vanilla that redefines it. The old EDP opens with elegant white florals, amber vanilla, radiating sensuality and luxury from the start. The florals are accompanied by a talc-dusted citrus fruit tint of mandarin/orange/apricot. As it settles, the musk and civet pulse strongly, forging its unique character. Sandalwood feels more prominent in the old version, adding more sensuality. The new version has less longevity, less than half, and the civet is less noticeable. Boucheron EDP is a creamy, opulent, intense, and ostentatious white floral, with animalistic avainillated touches and fine flashes of talc-dusted fruit. A great narcotic floral for those who enjoy complex fragrances and love the 80s.

  I can’t handle it; I bought it blindly and had to give it away; it literally smells like my grandmother.

  Boucheron de Boucheron is a sweet, syrupy, and well-balanced fantasy, a woman faithful to her incorruptible scent, a loyal passion without end. Its flowers sweetened with amber and vanilla, light touches of galbanum that give character and longevity, plus the oily touch of ylang, make it one of the most beautiful creations I have ever known. Elegant and refined, yet a typical fragrance to make those around you dream of sleeping between your sheets. It is the liquid jewel, a durable elixir through time. Of vintage touch, of course, one cannot deny its alchemical ingredients, but if this beauty does not make anyone beautiful, I will be struck by lightning. It is sweet in both the EDT and EDP, a sweet that enchants because it makes everything bloom without being cloying. The vintage has more flowers and projects and lasts much more, but the current version, tested recently, I can say is one of the least touched and handled perfumes in circulation from the Glamour decade of excess. Boucheron is like this, but this one differs because it never gets messy or sweaty; for hours it offers such purity and pleasure that you will only want to repeat it to remain eternally impregnated. Edit: the opening of the current version has a certain lacquer tone that differs from the more floral opening of the vintage. The galbanum in the vintage becomes more present. For those who do not like civet, they could opt for the one sold now, but if the taste leans more towards retro scents with a certain heaviness, I recommend the vintage. The elongated conical bottles with many years should also be appreciated as a more archaic and faithful formulation to the original.

  Boucheron de Boucheron is a sweet, perfectly balanced dream for a woman true to her impeccable essence—a loyal, endless passion. Flowers sweetened with amber and vanilla, those touches of galbanum that give it character and incredible longevity, plus the light, non-heavy oily hint of ylang-ylang, make it one of the most beautiful creations I’ve ever encountered. Elegant and refined, it’s the fragrance that makes those around you dream of sleeping between your sheets; it’s the liquid jewel, a lasting elixir through time. Although it’s vintage, the ingredients perform true alchemy; if this beauty doesn’t make anyone beautiful, let me be struck by lightning. Both the EDT and EDP are sweet, a sweetness that enchants because it lets everything bloom without being cloying. The vintage has more flowers and projects incredibly, but be warned: I tried the current version recently, and it’s one of the least over-the-top in the Glamour decade’s excesses. Boucheron is like that, but this one stands out because it never gets messy or sweaty; for hours it offers such purity and pleasure that you’ll just want to keep wearing it to stay eternally infused. Edit: The opening of the current version has a lacquer-like tone that differs from the vintage’s more floral start. Galbanum is always present in the vintage. If you dislike civet, go for the current one, but if you prefer retro scents with a bit of weight, the vintage is your street. The elongated cone-shaped bottles from years ago should also be appreciated as a more archaic formulation faithful to the original.

  I need these jewels to be rediscovered. What incredible quality. I have no doubt that Loewe versioned (almost copied) it under the name Gala, which I love. Boucheron is more intense than Gala, but be careful with Gala too. I detect the animalic notes that repel and enchant me at the same time. That Ylang Ylang is identical to the one in Samsara. All the white flowers are there and noticeable once the fragrance settles and the aldehyde softens. The final phase is a delightful oriental blend of benzoin, amber, and vanilla. What a piece of the past. I think these creations were pure alchemy where quality and result mattered. It’s sad that these jewels are unknown to most. We must try to get them back to their rightful place and ensure they never lost it. We must rediscover them: Opium, Samsara, Shalimar… They are all authentic works of art and should be treated as such. We must return to them!!

  I had it in a drawer and didn’t dare to use it because when I tried it, it seemed very heavy. But with the winter cold, I realized it is a precious jewel that doesn’t deserve to be kept away. Whoever faints, let them faint, hahaha. Seriously, it must be used with respect and moderation. It is a creamy white floral with an amber touch, all very elegant. The flowers are in perfect balance; the neroli is very present but does not dominate the rest. The sandalwood and ylang-ylang make it almost identical to my Samsara, but Boucheron is much more vibrant and yellow. They have the same vibe, but each with its own personality. A beautiful perfume that I will no longer deny or hide. I really love it.

If you faint, well, let you faint, haha. Just kidding. Seriously, you have to use it with moderation and respect. It’s a white floral, amber, and creamy scent, all elegant and stately. The floral balance is perfect. The neroli is very present but doesn’t overpower the rest. The sandalwood and ylang-ylang make it a cousin to my Samsara, but Boucheron is much more vibrant and yellow. They share an air, but each has its own personality. A gorgeous perfume that will never again be denied or disguised. I really like it a lot.

  I’ve wanted it ever since I found out it was Selena’s, even though I don’t follow her; her story is captivating. She used the EDT, and I have the EDP. It’s hard to test before buying; it’s unique and has no similar counterpart. It follows the line of Amarige, but it’s too elegant and opulent. On the first spray, it comes out bitter and floral, orange peel with orange blossom. As it dries, it becomes more floral, mainly neroli, with sandalwood, until it has that old makeup, powder, and lipstick scent, reminding me of Dior Homme Intense. At the end, the amber is noticeable, and the animalic note is subdued. The longevity is over 12 hours; I got many compliments from men, so I’d say it’s unisex. The projection is very good even after hours. I don’t see it as a signature scent because it calls for formal occasions, ideal for autumn and winter. The bottle is a ring, beautiful, with that eighties combination of blue and gold.

  I tested it twice and couldn’t handle it. Besides being vintage, it felt unpleasant to me, like calendula; I suspect it’s the carnation and it lasts a long time. Then it fades a bit and mixes with white flowers, but I couldn’t stand the grandma smell and had to wash my wrists. I recommend not buying blindly.

  This perfume crosses the barrier of time. It reminds me of when the world was open to everything, to people who dared to do crazy things and had many career or leisure options. A wave of fruits and flowers soaked in an animalic halo takes me back to places, people, and moments I miss. It conjures images I love, making me happy and melancholic: spices, powder, soap, fabric softener, Sunday church, my aunt’s mahogany vanity, her cosmetics, a freshly baked cake, Victoria Principal or Elizabeth Taylor in old magazines. At night, young and elegant women of class, painted nails, blow-dried curls, silk dresses, and pearls. I understand they might bore modern noses by calling it old, but setting the bottle aside, Boucheron isn’t old. It’s wonderful, opulent, and expansive, confident and present. It’s a witness to a feminine code hard to find today. Spraying it unfolds an incredible floral carpet: sweet without being cloying, sensual without being provocative, physical without being animalic. It’s powdery, soapy, balanced, and classic. The warm woody notes with vanilla make it irresistible. It’s old school, without sugary water for Gen Z, it has character and isn’t accommodating. Perfect for an elegant and confident woman. A time traveler without borders, with spectacular longevity on skin.

  Simply exquisite, one of the few reformulated classics that hasn’t been ruined. A perfume for elegant people, young or old; stay away if you’re tacky. A masterpiece ♥️

  I bought it by mistake and I wouldn’t have bought it for the world. I’ve tested it several times in-store and I don’t like it, just like the original. It always smells outdated to me, and I don’t think it had a good life. That said, the reformulation is quite faithful to the original.

  I bought it by mistake. Not for a joke, I would not have bought it. I have tried it several times in the store and I do not like it. I also did not like the original; it always smelled outdated to me. I don’t think it had a good life these years. That said, I believe its reformulation is quite faithful to the original.

  I put Boucheron on my left wrist and a modern perfume on the right, but in minutes everything fell silent and the left one won. I always saw it as a vintage perfume, with that bottle that looks like a jewel inherited from an elegant and mysterious aunt. A woman who knows a lot and says little, with a sharp laugh and a perfume that leaves a trail when she leaves. I searched for it out of curiosity, but also because it was Selena’s; I wanted to understand what someone wore on their skin who, when whispering “like the flower…”, seemed to stop time. And I understood it. Boucheron does not accompany; it imposes. It does not whisper; it stays. It is floral, citrusy, with an ambered and spicy base that does not ask for permission. It has something animal, something powdery, something impossible to classify and therefore unforgettable. It is not for every day, but for the days when you need to remember who you are.

  I sprayed Boucheron on my left wrist and a modern perfume on my right, but within minutes, everything else faded. The left one was speaking loudly. It feels vintage, like an heirloom from an elegant and mysterious aunt—a woman who knows too much and leaves a trail wherever she goes. I bought it out of curiosity because it was Selena’s perfume; I wanted to know what someone who seemed to suspend time by whispering ‘like a flower’ was wearing. I understood: Boucheron doesn’t accompany; it commands. It doesn’t whisper; it stays. It’s floral and citrusy with an amber and spicy base that doesn’t ask for permission. It has something animalic, powdery, and impossible to classify, which is why it’s unforgettable. It’s not for every day, but for remembering who you are.

  An absolute masterpiece. I received the EDT yesterday and I’m completely in love. It’s that scent that speaks directly to you and reveals who you are; I’ve never experienced anything like it before. Sorry if this sounds deep, but this EDT surpasses any modern EDP in longevity, projection, and evolution. Its development is glorious: citrusy, amber, floral, soapy, and it dries down to an indolic, animalic note on the skin, all very clean. Is this possible? ❤️

  I mixed up the bottles and took hers instead of his, but once I tried it, I was blown away. It smells incredible, has an amazing trail, and suits a man perfectly. I recommend it without hesitation.
