La Fleur Bouquet

I was comparing in the store Valaya and Fleur Narcotique and strongly prefer the latter. Valaya for me is more dense and heavy. Hence between Mystique bouquet and La Fleur bouquet I chose this one. While I did not smell them truly side by side, I did wear Fleur Narcotique from tester couple of times and I find La Fleur Bouquet to be an absolute perfect dupe! It smells like a beautiful flower garden after the rain. It is a very ethereal, light and happy scent, which screams SPRING. And all that with a very impressive longevity! I can easily smell my scent bubble throughout the whole work day in the office. From the notes I do recognize fruits (peach and maybe a little bit of litchi) and flowers (peony and jasmine). I do not feel any rose or powder which is listed above, also no real woodiness. Maybe some musk is there for longevity, but mainly it is wet and pretty fruity flowers.

According to Afnan's site, the notes are: Top - orange blossom, jasmine & peony, Mid - litchi, peach & bergamot, and base - musk, moss & petalia. On the Ex nihilo site the notes are rearranged into another order and there is a note of "transparent wood" added to the base. I'm not sure if it is the moss or the litchi addition to the florals, that I am obsessed with, but this perfume is so pretty. I often like perfumes that have Jasmine and orange blossom together. It does last for hours, but unfortunately at this point the projection isn't really there unless I really overspray. However as with pretty much all Arabian perfumes you have to let them macerate/ sit. I've had my bottle for nearly a week. I wore it to bed last night, and I could smell it still when I woke up. Also, I have Afnan's Mystique Bouquet and that did get stronger with time.

The fragrance oils combined in this beautiful bottle is what we can call good quality, as you can always expected from Afnan — quality and affordable. In short, I have no any objection to this fragrance, it’s a love. The fruitiness in here I can smell kind of pear or pineapple or peach coming together with powdery woody note. I think it can be considered a close relative of Burberry Her OG or Coach Dream OG, but less woody than Burberry Her (I just don’t understand why these two fragrances are not listed in the similarity section). If you love the DNA of these two fragrances, you gonna love La Fleur Bouquet more because the quality is almost better. The longevity is better than average and I love the packaging so much 😍

This is THE ONE! This is what I wanted Valaya and Fleur Narcotique to be. I can’t handle the strong, synthetic base of Valaya and Fleur Narcotique smelled slightly musty to my nose. But La Fleur Boutique smells exactly like what others described when they hyped up Valaya and Fleur Narcotique. Ethereal sparkling peach! Flirty and juicy without being too sweet, too strong, or too floral. Also- the notes on Fragrantica are wrong and a mess. Here are the actual notes directly from the Afnan website: Top Notes: Orange Blossom, Jasmine, and Peony Middle Notes: Litchi, Peach, and Bergamot Base Notes: Musk, Moss, and Petalia

I ́ve tested this and Fleur Narcotique side by side several times. To figure out why people think they smell alike. I still think they need to get their noses checked. This smells amazing. However, it is MUCH sweeter than FN. FN is a very airy, clean, floral, musky scent—almost laundry-like. FB is a sweet, fruit-floral scent. If I have to compare it to something, to me, it smells like an elevated, more refined, more airy version of Lataffa ́s Fakhar rose. It is very sweet and bubblegummy, but not as much as Fakhar. Overall, gorgeous, sweet, airy, feminine scent. But nothing like Fleur Narcotique.

This fragrance is really pretty. I wore it to a late September wedding, it was beautiful without being too strong, very appropriate. I could barely smell it on my skin at the end of the evening, however the scent was still strong on my clothes when I smelled them. Similar to Fleur Narcotique, but better in my opinion. I also definitely get My Way in the drydown as some have mentioned. One of my favourite hot weather perfume, I will definitely repurchase.

Please Fragrantica update the notes on your data base. As per Afnan website La Fleur Bouquet notes are: Top Notes: Orange Blossom, Jasmine and Peony Middle Notes: Litchi, Peach and Bergamot Base Notes: Musk, Moss and Petalia This is basically Ex Nihilo Fleur Narcotique on steroids. It’s very similar only Fleur Narcotique is rounder. If you are on a budget pick La Fleur Bouquet. You won’t be disappointed. Dani @deepgreenbeauty

Love it! It smells EXACTLY like Fleur Narcotic to my nose, perhaps a bit less screetchy than the original. My only complaint is longevity. The original doesn't give great longevity either so maybe it's just the nature of the composition. Save yourself a few hundred dollars and Afnan.

Actual notes from Afnan: PERFUME NOTES Top Notes: Orange Blossom, Jasmine, and Peony Middle Notes: Litchi, Peach, and Bergamot Base Notes: Musk, Moss, and Petalia. This is such a lovely everyday perfume, perfect for spring and summer.

This perfume is just perfect. It is gently subtle but I can still smell it after a few hours. Then I respray. I am buying a backup bottle of this. I’m so pleasantly surprised.

So pretty, and feminine...to me it's a sweet peach tea with a lemon slice for freshness...it instantly evokes a feeling of summer. Love.

Beautiful, feminine, floral-based fragrance with an almost indolic, provocative note which may be the jasmine, and a faint, hint of green in the middle. Again (thanks to Dani C) Fragrantica please update your listing for this with the correct notes. These are taken from the Afnan website: Top notes: orange blossom, jasmine, peony Middle notes: Litchi, peach, bergamot Base notes: Musk, moss and petalia The peach is nice and the litchi – fruit notes are present without being really prominent or overriding. Really well-blended and lovely piece of work which I can’t imagine anyone being offended by and decent performance on the skin. It reminds me of a lovely, feminine woman who is calmly confident and dignified in her femininity. This is not an exciting or adventurous fragrance. The presentation box is truly lovely and reminiscent of vintage floral presentation boxes of floral talcs and the bottle and cap unique and attractive and it would grace any dresser. There is nothing cheap about this whatever and it would make a great gift. This is my first by Afnan and again I’m really impressed with the offerings by Arabian fragrance houses, especially the quality for the price.

I like this. It reminds me of Ameerat al Arab from Asdaaf, except sweeter. I didn't like Ameerat al Arab very much because the sweetness faded away too quickly, and the scent left over wasn't as pleasant with the sweetness gone. La Fleur Bouquet smells like grape jelly to me. Ameerat al Arab reminded me of those Aloe Vera drinks that have a white grape flavor, fresher, less sugary. I find it interesting that just a little tweak can turn a scent from a dislike to a like for me. Funny how that works out. I've never smelled Fleur Narcotique, but My Way is my signature scent. This definitely smells similar to My Way as it dries down, just like multiple other reviews here have stated. This has pretty good sillage and longevity. This definitely has potential for repurchase since it's cheap and smells great. Edit: Okay my nose started picking up on a note in the base that smells like the diaper/newspaper smell in Baccarat Rouge and also something that reminds me of tomato sauce. I'm going to have to pass on buying this one again. I like My Way and Fruity Neroli from Dossier better than this one.

I heard this was a Fleur Narcotique dupe and blind bought it for 35$ not actually knowing what FN smelled like. I finally do, and I'm glad I got this because it's better on my skin. First of all, they are very similar and this is definitely a FN dupe. I’d say the floral accords are the same. However, Fleur Bouquet smells denser and sweeter in the opening and middle while FN is more airy and aquatic, but has a muskier base. FN on my skin goes in the direction of masculine, woody musk for a few minutes (kind of ruining the fragrance for me) and then comes back to being a light floral in the drydown, which lasts for half an hour before disappearing. FB stays pleasant and pretty linear throughout (much better lasting power as well).

So... the good stuff is in the dry down. The heart and base notes. The opening screams dated boring flowers and not much else. It’s just.. meh.. But then... it gets fruity type of sweet... nice.. ok... and then comes the powdery, woody rose sweetness that’s the best part but at this point it’s so dry it’s almost a skin scent. I haven’t worn it all over for a day just a springs in my arm, so i don’t know how it projects after the dry down. But that’s the good part. It’s nice but I may not buy it again. Edited to add: the opening is better now. It’s either grown on me or changed with time. It is fresh clean fruity floral! I only wish it was stronger.

It is one of the most signature worthy fragrances i have ever smelled. Feminine (slightly girly - maybe because it reminds me of Britney’s curious which i had in 8th grade in elementary school) romantic, fluffy, clean. It is office friendly and something that makes you feel cozy and lovable in all the seasons for an affordable price Also, it is surprisingly unique. Never smelled it on the streets or on anyone I interacted with, however it is supposed to smell similar to many others like Fleur Narcotic which has a lot of clones.

La Fleur Bouquet by Afnan is not the PDM Valaya dupe. That would be Mystic Bouquet by Afnan. Anyway, La Fleur Bouquet is a pleasant fruity floral. It’s fairly generic and blended so that you don’t really experience any specific note, in particular. It’s just a slightly sweet, soft fruity floral. It’s an inexpensive everyday fragrance, an easy choice when lounging at home. The sillage is intimate and it lasts 1-2 hours on my skin. I like it, but don’t see myself repurchasing once it’s gone.

I have never tried Fleur Narcotique but this scent reminds me My Way more powdery version of it. It’s really sweet , I don’t detect peony or rose in it, only sweet and dense white flowers with citruses somewhere on the back. I personally don’t enjoy this scent profile anymore, but i used to loove it some years ago. I think it’s a nice people pleasing scent that a lot of people will like, or at least wouldn’t mind.

From a tester. Opening: Oh so pretty! I can smell peach, peony, neroli and jasmine. It's like the newborn baby girl of Mystique Bouquet, but with peach and jasmine. I didn't expect to like it as much as I do. Drydown: romantic peach. It's not special, but very pleasant, youthful, feminine, great for every day and office friendly. Memorable? No. It lacks character. Easy reach? Yes. It's cute and romantic. 8/10

La Fleur Bouquet is a pretty fruity-floral with peach, lychee, peony, jasmine, soft citrus, and a clean musky base. Fresh in the opening, then quickly turns into a sweet, slightly powdery floral-musky scent and stays fairly linear throughout. Very feminine, easy to wear, and clearly in the Fleur Narcotique DNA family. I can understand why people enjoy this profile, but for me it’s more “nice” than “love”.

I have never tried Fleur Narcotique, but I can say La Fleur Bouquet reminds me a lot of My Way, which I own. It is sweeter than May Way and a bit less citrussy, but overall very nice. To me, it has some kind of a tea quality, like a sweet fruity-citrussy tea. It is definitely a very good, more affordable alternative to My Way and Fleur Narcotique, which is outrageously expensive.

This perfume is perfect for spring and summer, It truly feels like a basket full of flowers. Here's how I envision someone wearing this: you're a woman in a dress, getting ready to meet your girlfriends for a lovely afternoon tea on a sunny day. You're a lovely, feminine woman who is calmly confident and dignified in her femininity.

Love when it dries down and you can pick up the woody notes... definitely my favorite part of this fragrance!!! It’s very playful and just lightly artificial upon the initial spray, however once it settles and dries down it becomes this lovely fruity, floral, and woody concoction.

This is a very feminine perfume. It’s equal parts fruity and floral, the peach/fruit notes are fresh not heavy or too sweet. I am not a big floral person but I don’t mind it in this scent. The sharpness of the florals settle in the drydown and leans slightly more musky.

This perfume is so pretty! It's definitely floral but not overwhelming. I get a lot of sweetness and white flowers, with a hint of citrus that keeps it fresh. Perfect for spring and summer!

This is a very nice floral sweet scent, I think it is like My Way and gucci gorgeous Orchid had a Baby. Soft, delicate, I would dare say safe blind buy. Moderate silage and good projection.

Great sweet floral, and I'm not fun of florals but this one is very easy to wear, bright and light. I would love to detect that wood note in the dry down though.

This is literally 70% similar to my way... not a 1:1 dupe but they smell very similar Super pretty but not memorable

Very pretty office friendly spring scent. It's a lightly sweet musky floral which I enjoy 🌸🌸🌸

This smells like My Way and Fleur Narcotique had a baby.

I’ve got myself the discovery set of afnan bouquets, and although I know I should let them sit for a while I couldn’t help myself from trying one yesterday afternoon on my wrist. I sprayed 2 sprays: it started with a strong alcohol smell, almost like rubbing alcohol that evaporated very fast to change to a strong sweet fruit smell, peach 🍑 maybe lychee? That didn’t last long and became a flowery scent which was pleasant but very unremarkable. The dry off was ok more dry, very woody on me, almost male woody. It lasted from 10:00 AM until 8:00 PM when I showered. The two little sprays projected for good 3 or 4 hours every time I moved my arm and I didn’t get nose blinded from it the whole day. I don’t find it particularly high quality but I must admit I have a Ard al zafraan perfume that changed completely after a year and became from smelling very cheap to very pleasant. So maybe I’ll give it a try in the future again. For now it’s a no for me.

citrusy floral. very prominent on the florals. at first it comes off as cold & sharp however in time it starts to slightly sweeten on my skin and turns a bit musky. good for daily wear or work during the summer/spring. i could see people loving this however i kinda regret getting a full bottle because while i find the scent to be not bad and the presentation is stunning, it's just a bit too basic for me. average performance on my skin. edit: after letting it sit for a while this indolic note developed out of nowhere and it got too cloying for me.

I definitely do think it’s a nice fragrance. Peachy and floral. Kinda like an ice peach tea or maybe a peach flavored mentos. However, I do feel that there’s something missing in this fragrance and I personally do feel it smells kinda boring. Maybe I just don’t care for peaches in fragrances ? People who love peach in fragrances should definitely give this a try tho.

I am not crazy about this one. The initial blast is divine to me then the dry down and after a few hours I don't smell anything I particularly like. I mean it isn't a gross scrubber but I am confused how the hell this one has such good ratings.

I have the entire bouquet line...all gorgeous except for this one, its nice but reminds me of an air freshener for the bathroom, so that is what I used it for.

No, not my type of perfume.. makes me nauseous.. blind buy fail

I am also a bit surprised at all the good reviews. This is often listed as one of the best dupes for Fleur Narcotique, which is why I blind bought, but to my nose they are quite different. Where FN is light and ethereal, this is quite heavy and cloying with a synthetic peach note that won't quit. I wear it occasionally just to see if I still feel so negative about it, and I always do...

Fleur Narcotique dna(not a dupe, more like inspired by) with grape juice vibe, so it’s much sweeter, less musky and less citrusy. To me it’s more a skin scen, doesn’t project well. Tested it in store so can’t really tell smth about lasting power.

I actually like this floral perfume and enjoy its dry down, though there’s one note I can’t quite place that I don’t like. This note also appears in Melody to the Night by Sarah Creations (but there’s no information or even a picture of that perfume online, only other Sarah Creations releases). It lingers on my skin and clothes for 8 hours. I like how it eventually turns sweet and powdery, aside from that one note. To make it more wearable, I layer it with Cloud Candy by Khadlaj, which softens the note I dislike. It’s a gift from my husband, who adores it, so I’ll happily wear it anyway. Update: Sadly, even though I like this perfume, it gives me a headache, so I’ll have to set it aside for a while and try it again later.

First of all, I love this perfume. When I first sprayed this, I got a toned down tuberose that reminded me of Fakhar Rose. It then develops into a smoother, less sharp Gingham Gorgeous from Bath and Body Works. They aren’t the exact same, but I thought of that almost immediately when I sprayed this. I have never smelled the niche perfume this is supposed to dupe. This is a safe floral and peach perfume with moderate longevity. If you like Gingham Gorgeous, My Way, or Burberry Her you will probably like this.

Please save your 30 dollars if u are buying this thinking its like fleur narcotique. I have tried it many times and signature "airyness" that fleur narcotique has is completely missing in Afnan. Afnan has some type of dusty powderyness that is very unnecessary. It's also heavier on jasmine rather than focusing on aquatic peony like in original. Basically for me it's a pass and i am looking for more comparable dupes.

@Kiwigirl is right. The notes on the Afnan website differ from the ones listed here. I'm new to Fragantica, so this may be answered somewhere and I just haven't researched it enough, but I'm curious to know how the notes on here are generated. "PERFUME NOTES Top Notes: Orange Blossom, Jasmine and Peony Middle Notes: Litchi, Peach and Bergamot Base Notes: Musk, Moss and Petalia"

Beautiful fragrance with excellent sillage and longevity. It smells like you layered fleur narcotique with a spritz of Armani my way in the drydown. It’s more floral, juicy, has a touch of sweetness, and is more dense compared to fleur narcotique which is more airy and aquatic. This is basically an amped up version of FN. Really great value and worth trying.

smells really plesant. It reminds me a lot of roses greedy by Mancera. It smells almost identical to me, I don ́t understand that I haven ́t found a comparison to this scent here since the first thing that came to my mind after sniffing Afnan was Roses Greedy. anyway, great everyday scent. Can be worn all year round imo

Does anyone else get banana from this? lol On my skin this smells like an actual fruity, banana pudding. I don't hate it, in fact it's super delicious, I just don't want to smell like that. It must be the white florals!

Today I tried Levant for the first time and it is basically this. This Afnan scent. I'm not sure about the stingy musky drydown, but other than that, they are practically the same.

Try Narcotic Flower if you want a Fleur Narcotique dupe.

Intense peach but not as great as fleur narcotique.
