A surprise..
I have always appreciated Diptyque...2 my favourite fragrances come from this brand (Philosykos and Tam Dao). Now I've found another one: Fleur de Peau. It was a huge surprise because I didn't expect it at all... The list with the notes was too boring for me to try the scent until now. (#judgingabookbyitscover)

Fleur de Peau smells like the best clean skin smell I can imagine.

It doesn't smell like a conventional fragrance, that's right.

If I were sitting next to someone wearing Fleur de Peau (without knowing the scent), I would think that this person has a fantastic natural skin odour... A skin odour that I find extremely attractive.

I've read that some people find that the scent smells a bit like a baby... Maybe because of the powdery iris note... I kind of smell like pheromones...

To be more concrete with my description: it smells of skin, sexy skin, cleanliness, warm-powdery-intimate... (more concrete than that I can not... Hehe)

You want to be closer to the person who wears this fragrance (at least me

Doting
My Holy Grail. Fleur de Peau does indeed start off a bit habitual, effervescent and somehow stuffy-citric. After about an hour, however, a game of skin "awakens", it smells constantly changing creamy, woody and skiny-animalic. Imagine one of those people who smell so wonderful by nature. Now take this idea and imagine this person (slightly) sweating, but not disgusting, but sexy! What I'm saying is that Fleur de Peau is not a clean or freshly showered fragrance.
Since I've been wearing this fragrance, I've been asked at least once a week what kind of fragrance it is (which hardly ever happened to me before)...
It has something magnetic, smells like humans and skin, maybe a little bit like sex.
Big recommendation!

Where do I know you from?
First spray... Hmm... Delicious... Fresh floral, soft, noble... Kind of hard to describe. I don't recognize any single fragrance note out. A short time and a sniff on the wrist later... "Hey, I know you!"... Just where from?? Again scaled... And again... and one sniff later I remember..." You smell something similar to Chanel 5 L'eau!" Fresh, soapy clean scent. I really like it. But your price is pretty steep. Well, you come times on my wish list.... One can never have enough perfumes...right?

Musk shower
The fragrance begins after spraying with an aspirin-like freshness acid, with aspirin, no rather Alka Selzer. Aldehydes. Similarly, only with a dash of lemon/orange lemonade does Noontide Petals by Andy Tauer begin. Brause, not too sweet. Or champagne, extremely fine bubbly. This stimulating tickle in the nose.

Then a transition to the creamy, floral indeterminate variety and I start to smell the musk after 5 minutes. Ambrette-like, vegetable or animal musk cannot be said, the synthetician has simply taken some of everything. And it smells good! Slight evaporation of hot, glowing teenagers at the school prom or whatever else may come to mind from the cliché and film box. It doesn't matter if you have ever smelt like this, only the feeling or the (fantasy) memory that is triggered counts. If it's as well done as it is here: Perversomat! That smells very youthful, but also seriously like body, even if quite feather-light.
Augusta likes it: musk shower. So far so good.

I understand the title of the scenery, i.e. the fragrance, as follows: "This is not a skin-near fragrance in the sense of barely perceptible, not a hint of nothing, because today you or a woman are not allowed to smell of anything anymore. It's floral, perfumed, slightly sweating skin. Attention, retransfer not excluded. The fragrance is not suitable for refreshment.
The Sillage is not a huge, but a fragrance in the literal sense: fluffiness, powderiness, brightness, humidity, in this case lighter steam, at least if it's not too cold outside.

After half an hour or so it will settle down; perhaps a little bit more woody or (wild) leathery spice will gradually be added. Gentle, of course, and tedentially carefree.

Disturber / Wehmuttropfen: Unfortunately, after about 2 hours a compression of the aforementioned fragrance cloud appears, which makes him a headache candidate for me. (But that doesn't have to work for everyone.)

And: Yes, yes, it is nevertheless a clean scent of structure and perception, no big deal, but I stick to it - this laundry is not quite fresh. A light spice, a little powder is also in it, the cream of the morning. The heated cheeks of the haste of the tasks, if it must remain already with the everyday life.
Plus: This smells like someone you've come very close to. Well, yes. Fleur de Peaux.
Minus: But now he has to go down, he's evaporating me right now ... i can't stand it. Teenage dreams are nothing but sound and smoke and cause headaches in the long run. And Coming of Age movies are just shit.

The warm skin of a loved one
My husband travels a lot. Sometimes just within Germany and Europe, but sometimes he spends weeks at a time in more distant countries.
At such times, I sometimes take one of his sweaters and smell it. I find this mixture of perfume residue and the smell of his warm skin so incredibly appealing.
And that's exactly the association I have when I smell Fleur de Peau. The smell of a loved one whose scent you want to make your own. Fresh and clean on the one hand, slightly salty and a little dirty on the other. A Saturday in early summer, the patio door to the garden is wide open, a very delicate scent of flowers, earthy iris and damp grass wafts in and mingles with the smell of the slightly sweaty T-shirt. My scent, his scent, and everything melts together as if in a gentle embrace. Fleur de Peau is not a perfume. Fleur de Peau is the scent of a loved one. Sadly, the perfumer of this masterpiece, Olivier Pescheux, passed away last year. Pescheux made several fragrances for Diptyque, but this one is, in my opinion, one of his most beautiful, intimate and sincere. Thank you, Olivier Pescheux.

My first impression was that it smells like a floral musky soap.I think this is actually quite an elegant floral musky soap
Verry nice.

Straight up powder, slightly spicy, very musky and a touch of rose. Too toiletry-ish for me.

I had to play hide and seek with this almost mute iris. A pretty little wallflower.
