Caresse
I received the decant and couldn’t wait to try it, but it was a letdown. The quality is brutal; Matiere Premiere really cares for every flower and oil. I already own Parisian Musc and Neroli Oranger, and I love them; the neroli is perfect for heat, and the musk is elegant, but this French Flower suffocates me. The longevity and sillage are insane—it smells like the whole house in minutes. Maybe that’s why I don’t end up liking it; I’m not into high-impact perfumes that weigh me down. I prefer fragrances that arrive and then fade. It will be a hit for tuberose lovers, but I just can’t handle it. Excellent quality, no doubt.

For me, it has that ambroxan base that kills me… that’s why I always say: test before you buy, and everyone should draw their own conclusions. Definitely NOT for me, no matter how hard I try.

I don’t know… it just doesn’t fully convince me. It’s a tuberose-based perfume, but these tuberoses come off as artificial and sticky to me. I know it’s the common tuberose used in perfumery, and maybe I’m just used to hyper-realistic, carnal, dirty ones, but this smells like bubblegum or spoiled pear. The other notes—tea and ambroxan—are top quality. It’s a tuberose suitable for daily wear with a clean, saline aura that highlights the contrast, though I can’t quite feel the pear’s sweetness, the orange blossom’s vibrancy, or the ginger’s spice. In short, it’s a sweet, informal, tropical, exotic tuberose perfect for summer and spring. I won’t buy it due to personal taste, but I recommend it; I used the 2ml decant for a whole weekend because it’s so easy to carry. It lasts about four hours with good sillage.

I have it. I tested it on my arm, walked around the shopping district, and that exquisite scent followed me everywhere I went. The notes are top-notch; you can tell there’s excellent craftsmanship. People say it’s similar to My Way, which I also own; yes, they’re alike because of the tuberoses, but My Way is sweeter and more artificial. French Flower has a spicy ginger note that’s the best part, combined with natural tuberoses that don’t go unnoticed. The Chinese tea mixed with ginger makes it fresh, elegant, and gives an impression of a polished person. It lasts quite a while on the skin with high projection, although My Way lasts longer and has greater sillage. I’m in love with Matiere Premiere, and you won’t smell like anyone else. I let it macerate for two months, and the ginger really came through—it’s a 10/10. Since I bought it, I haven’t purchased another one (before it was 2 or 3 a month), and it left me speechless. The pear is well-integrated with the tuberoses and the ginger is juicy but in the background. It’s super versatile, fresh, and I’d use it all year round.

A delightful perfume that will soon be in my collection; this house has very rich perfumes, and this is no exception in quality, scent, and everything else.

I’ve loved the scent; the quality is elegant and unique. I don’t have a memory of a perfume like this; it’s one of a kind. Great value for money; I want it. 100% recommended.
