Fatale

For me this was one of those scents I fell immediately in love with and had to buy the next day, because I couldn't help myself (plus it's pretty cheap!). I have to agree with previous reviews; it does remind me of something else so I wouldn't call it unique, but I want to say it's more of a cross between several scents (if they were mixed together AND TONED DOWN quite a bit): La Vie Est Belle by Lancome, Black Opium by YSL, V&R's Flowerbomb, Jimmy Choo and maybe a tiny, tiny hint of Velvet Orchid by Tom Ford. To be honest, the only fragrance of them I've actually gone out and bought is the latter, as I'm not a huge fan of the first mentioned but to me FATALE is the best of all of them combined (I only wish it was a bit more potent). I think the reason I like FATALE so much is because the patchouli is there but silent, bringing forward all the other yummy notes without screaming: "HERE I AM! Look at me! Smell me!" The only downside is that I kinda wish it was a little bit more: "HERE I AM!" because on my skin the sillage could be better. Longevity is OK (4 hours?), but I would love for it to last even a little bit longer. But, oh well.. what can you do. For the pricetag I don't mind respraying a bit throughout the day. I think it's delicious and sensual and yummy! Just the way I like it. All in all: FATALE is a great and very likeable scent that I would recommend you to try out if you're not into LVEB or Flowerbomb, but you would like something "similar/in those lines". FATALE would be a great alternative. BTW, my friends LOVE it too! :)

awesome blind buy. I found this beauty for a super cheap price; 15$ to be exact! I love it!!! i have always liked LVEB but never enough to buy it, especially for the price tag it holds (it just wasn't unique enough to pay more than $40 for). I never expected this beauty to have that similar, beautiful, girly dry down as LVEB at this price point. This is absolutely worth so much more than the $15 I paid (I would have gladly paid up to $40, again just because its really pretty but it isn't very unique). I'm glad its so affordable though :) I wore this after my shower this morning and I can still smell the sweet, soft, feminine, and creamy base after 10 hours (I do layer this on top of an odorless lotion and find that even my weaker scents last longer after i do this trick). Ok, so the first initial spray is strong and it almost felt like it was stinging my nose in a not pleasant and very harsh way. HOWEVER! after just a few SECONDS of hitting my skin and warming up a bit, it changed to that very LVEB-esque sweet, soft beauty. This is one I can use without fear of offending anyone. It has medium to light projection. Sillage is also around the same. It is cooler outside right now, and this scent just makes me feel warm and sweet. If you find this, DO get it! you definitely won't lose. Especially at a lower price.

I really like this perfume, even if to me, it does not remind of La Vie Est Belle at all, and it might not even be truly sweet (think Scandal and Fancy), at the end of the day. It's peppery, fragrant, powdery, with a boozy, creamy sweetness to it. I would deconstruct it as follows: - the skeleton of Soir de Lune by Sisley: heavy, oily rose and freesia floral (or whatever other notes are in there); granny-like, but in a sophisticated, expensive way, not dusty at all; - a dose of some sort of 'alcoholic syrup' (Turkish delight or Turkish rose jam, with a distinct boozy note) which reminds me of old-school profiteroles (authentic French ones); -a very young, vibrant note (very slightly minty, like Alien). It's really beautiful and unexpectedly so, as I have Fatale Intense and to me, it smells like a muted, creamier version of Angel by Mugler. When I read that this one was similar to LVEB, I thought it was going to be like Fatale Intense - not at all. LVEB is sugary confectionery, fragrant, fashionable, Parisian, sexy etc., this is boozy old-school, old-world wealth, satin and heavy jewelry worn in the 21st century at a lavish ball. Happy that I purchased it!

I have a sample of this, my mothers reaction when I spritzed it on the skin... WHOW! Yes, you could hear the H! My first impression on inhaling from the card was BAILEYS the cream irish liquer scent that I love so much. Bailey's is my poison after all! That was because of the chocolate. The fragrance quickly changes notes the way a Beethoven Symphony can. One second all the instruments are playing at their loudest inducing tinnitus to anyone hearing it, then once your attention is caught, the ochestral movements glide smoothly into a sublime melody invoking an image of floral sweets, like Turkish Delights. Eating them in a garden surrounded by rose bushes with a gentle breeze urging the perfume to wrap a hand on your wrist. The final movement is that warm musky hold that slips a finger further up your arm whilst leaning over and whispers: "You know you want more!" If this is what La Vie Est Belle is like I must have that... but first, I think the Fatale has a little knowing smile on her big, beautiful lips...

I’ve been wearing this one for a while and as far as descriptions go, everyone below me has pretty much summed it up. This smells like a lighter, fruitier, LVEB with a toned down patchouli. If you like LVEB, but think it’s too heavy...this one would be a great fragrance for you to try. The initial spray is black current that transitions to mango shortly after. During the middle phase you smell the chocolate and orris root, and finally it dries to a chocolate orchid musk. This is a nice perfume, but I find it kind of boring. It doesn’t rock my world like L’Agent does or at least pique my interest like Maitresse or Eau Emotionelle. To be completely honest, in a world full of so many different fragrance options...I’m not quite sure I want to continue to be bothered with this one. I have 1 full bottle unused and a second bottle that’s about 98% full. They both still have their boxes and retail sleeves. PM me if anyone in the US would be interested in doing a swap.

Agent Provocateur fragrances are rare finds in my part of world, and really I want to keep them all to myself! I received so many compliments on Fatale from men at work that I had to stop wearing it! It's truly that sexy, and it doesn't remind people of anything else ( at least not where I live anyway) I try to compare perfumes to other ones, because I appreciate that myself in reviews, so to me, this reminds me of Viva La Juicy mixed with Private Show by Britney Spears, except it's a lot stronger , way more complex, and almost too sexy to wear. If you enjoy strange scents, chocolate notes , vanilla musk, and gardenia you will love it..It doesn't remind me of La Vie Belle at all, and the patchouli isn't very strong or overpowering.

Initial Spray: Don't be put off by the initial spray (very similar to Roberto Cavalli), strong florals and spices. The middle: It is sweet fruits, cream, powder, and a touch of gourmand (if you are considering because of the chocolate note you may be disappointed, its barely-there - see Fatale Intense). Dry Down: An hour later it is a skin scent and hasn't changed from the middle, but I keep pressing my nose to it, I love it. Note: I also bought 'Fatale Intense' and it is similar to this one on the dry down, but longer-lasting, projects more, and more chocolate. Might be worth checking out if you want something more powerful.

I just received this one & Fatale Pink and I am quite happy with both. Lovely florals, simple, not to sweet even for me. Just a feminine floral for every day use, not a big powerhouse. I will enjoy both of these, as they are not the same. The chocolate note, which I love, in Fatale is what makes it a deeper scent than you get with Fatale Pink. I love the gardenia, musk and patchouli, and all in all, this is great easy reach that I know I will wear frequently because it's non-offensive, pretty and not my usual heavy oriental. A nice change of pace for me. Though I will say the longevity is only moderate. Spray with abandon!

To me, the most prominent note is mango. I can smell it from the beginning up to the first or second hour of wear. Once it becomes a skin scent, the mango scent is replaced by chocolate. It's sweet but not much. It may be headache-inducing for some because of the mango scent in the opening. My mother told me that I smelled like a rich person when I wore this. I'm not sure of the longevity as of this writing since it varies on me but I'm sure that it can't classify as "eternal" on my skin. Overall, I love the smell of Fatale. I think I can wear this to work and hang outs. I just wish it lasts longer.

Love! I bought because of comparisons to La vie Est Belle, and they are close, but switch out the pear for mango in Fatale. It’s better! This has a dry iris mid that is addicting, and the chocolate dry down lingers on the skin. It lasts on clothes, too. I can see why this is popular. It’s sweet black currant to start, with a sharp and dry powder. Creamy gardenia-mango comes in with a hint of warm chocolate patchouli. Just beautiful. The bottle is a pretty design as well. This is one of my all time favorites, and sits alongside Soleil Cristal and LVEB Intensement in my collection.

Got this during winter time, finally it's summer and I really changed my mind about it. Really beautiful fruitchouli scent with the warmth of mango, not boring like LVEB (personal opinion of course), and somewhat darker than Flowerbomb. Yes, it can be worn all year around, but I find it perfect for evenings from spring to autumn. Chocolate is just a nuance but it's there. This perfume has turned into a love of mine, I have to recommend it, and although it becomes rather intimate within the hours, I can still smell it after a whole day on my skin.

I can't help it, I just LOVE fragrances like this one! Similar to many other great sweet bombs like La vie est belle and it's flankers, also Pierre Balmain's Extactic and Flowerbomb. This is just deliciously sweet orchid, cacao and patchouli scent with some lovely gardenia and black currants. This has so many qualities I love, I'm considering buying it. The best thing is, this one is quite affordable compared to my other sweet favorites! Need to have it in my collection!

Smells uplifting and feminine with almost a cute mature quality to it. For optimistic sweetness lovers that don't want to smell like a sugar-bomb. It's just so pretty! I personally couldn't detect it anymore after 4 hours, but others could still smell it after 8 hours which is very impressive. But.. I guess not smelling it after a while is a good thing since it's so yummy it makes me want to eat myself. A wrist-sniffer for sure.

I love this! It does smell very similar to lancome la vie est belle, but less sweet. I actually prefer this one. You do get chocolate and you do get a little floral and citrus, it's a good, modern scent, very girly, but also ladylike, playful I guess. Not agent provocateurs usual, but a hit for me. This does have good projection and lasts almost all day on my skin. I've bought a few bottles incase it suddenly dissapears

a musky, patchouli, fruity floral with big black currant, vanilla orchid that makes it an ambery vanilla, musk, patchouli and labdanum; no other florals, not tropical and no chocolate; it is gorgeous and very intense and reminds me of some celeb scents on the market; worth every penny for $20; not like other AP scents, no rose, similar to Fatale Intense but more vanilla

I just revisited a sample of Flowerbomb (which I used to have & love) and, lo and behold, Agent Provocateur Fatale smells so similar that I doubt I'd ever buy another bottle of Flowerbomb since it is about 3-4 $$$ higher than APF. And I LOVE the chocolate note in APF! Both are patchouli bombs with vanilla orchid and musk. Try APF and see what you think.

On me, opens smelling very much like LVEB, but quickly changes. The chocolate has almost a licorice quality with florals presenting in the background. My boyfriend's favorite is LVEB, and I purchased this hoping to find a less expensive substitute. I will update on how well this goes. As for me, I like the fragrance and am still getting to know it.

The scent of temptation. Delicious sweet peach, mango, vanilla and hint of chocolate - a complete presentation of sweet desserts in a bottle, with a promise of perpetual addiction. The sex appeal is not overbearing, instead Fatale present the right amount of mysterious allure, gradual intoxication and delicate seduction you won't able to resist.

I was taken aback by this one. I've never been a fan of Agent Provocateur, but this one is beautiful, feminine and long-lasting. I loved the chocolate in the base, although it's a fruity floral, it's definitely unique! To my knowledge it'll be launched on the 30th June. Saucy advert too! Watch out for it on billboards.

There’s a lot going on, I can detect most of the notes listed, mainly the chocolate, patchouli and pink pepper. It has great projection, some times too much. Longevity is decent. It’s so yummy and fruity and chocolatey with hints of florals. It’s quite unique to me but vaguely reminds me of LVEB
