Magnolia en Fleurs

I already blind bought Iris Fetiche from this Avon Artistique-line and love it. I ordered a travel size spray of Magnolia en Fleurs..just in case it's not my thing. But I read the reviews and was curious. I could have ordered a full bottle of this scent! The bottle is beautiful and the scent is just my kind of floral. I must admit, I wasn't sure how magnolia smells, I confused it with gardenia sometimes. Gardenia can be suffocating when strong and dominant - magnolia is delicate. Now I remember that I have had magnolia scents before (Yves Rocher!) and they smelled just like this. Now I know magnolia: So pure, fresh, feminine. Perfect for spring and summer and for daytime use at home or at work. This is something I want to spray right after taking a shower or sauna. Next time I will get the full bottle - you never know if they discontinue this line. Together with Iris Fetiche, Magnolia en Fleurs make a nice pair of the the two type of fragrances I love most: Soft, cuddly and gourmand and fresh, feminine florals. If you love magnolias, try this one. It's elegant and beautiful.

This turned out to be my cheaper version of Chanel's Cristalle Eau Verte. The latter is just a masterpiece of crispy silvery magnolia. But this Avon's: first I wasn't sure I really like it but after many months and a few wears I see that magnolia here is similarly nice and crispy as in that Chanel's scent. I bought Avon's first so who knows, maybe Chanel's tester later tricked my nose enough to like Avon's even more. I'm still longing for Cristalle Eau Verte (to get it cheaper than in the shops) but I enjoy Magnolia en Fleurs as well, even when I had both. I consider them comparable, Avon's seems to be a bit stronger and sweeter. I chose this scent over many available by carefully reading Fr reviews here and it paid off. It is unisex, maybe leaning feminine. It doesn't have the specific cheapie smell in it which is also a reason to enjoy it.

Christ almighty, whoever says it's a women's frag you're just selfish (that's true for so many women's frag), because I had that kind of Jasmine in all mine men's frag, especially with that musk-santal combo, it really brings up so many of my early favorites, yes maybe beacuse it reacts well on my skin, that I detect it as a unisex fragrance, but that's the beauty of parfumerie and especially the Artistique line, they want to break out finally, and let all the people live in their fantasies, but enough of my ramblings, what's bad in the marketing side of scents! Like I said, it's a heavier side of green floral combo, I can even imagine, you can bring this to dates, it's so good! Maurice had some really great scents, and I'm happy this is one of them. Really thinking of that it shares some DNA with Alien, please let me know!

At £11 for 50ml on Avon's UK website, this is the most generous gift from the master of white flowers Maurice Roucel and personally, I am very grateful for it. This is a beautiful, clean and elegant scent. A bit cold and distant, but also fresh and quirky at the same time, it reminds me of the legendary Rive Gauche, with which it shares quite a few notes. Actually, you wouldn't be wrong if you thought of it as the stripped-down white flower-dominant, updated version of Rive Gauche, with longevity and presence to boot. My husband is equally impressed and adamant he'd be wearing it himself.

Maurice Roucel is my favourite perfumer so I could not wait to try this, and it is wonderful! I don’t actually have a full bottle size of a fresh floral type fragrance. This will now be my go to for that mood. This feels so pure, fresh, and softly green. It is slightly sweet but only in the way that freshly picked flowers give off a whisper of tender sweetness. It is comforting and calming, I am just an instant fan. This is the antidote to 2020. Oh and the quality is excellent, longevity is perfect, like everything else about this one.

Uygun fiyata alınabilecek çok güzel bir manolya kokusu. Arkadan gelen odunsu yosunsu koku da kendini hissettiriyor. Kızkardeşim ne zaman bunu sıksam saç jölesi gibi koktuğunu söylüyor 😁😅 Ben yine de çok sevdim. Bu kokuyu bu yaz boyunca saçlarıma sıktım ve ne zaman bir rüzgar esse, sevdiğim bir arkadaşım benim çok hoş koktuğumu söyledi. Üçüncü şişeyi bitirdim ve sanırım bu koku satıştan kalkmadan üç-beş şişe satın almam gerekecek. Keşke büyük boyları olsa. Kalıcılığı da iyi bir koku, avonun diğer kokularına göre

I love it. Magnolia en Fleurs really stands out, at least from the "average Avon perfume" line, it is not supersweet, or faint, or ordinary... I normally avoid scents that are too green, but this one with its combination of magnolia and bergamot is soooo yummy and sophisticated at the same time! I wish it would last longer, but it still has far greater longevity than its "sister" Patchouli Indulgence. I carry the smaller version with me to reapply once during the day.

As I was trying the New Artistique line, this came up and I was curious. Avon had let me down before so I didn’t had higher hopes for this one (this line either). I wasn’t sure about how magnolia smells, so now I know. Never have I ever liked a perfume like this one for the hot days and even for spring (mostly for spring). So,long story short, now I own two bottles and half of that 10 ml that I bought initialy. I highly recommend it!

Maurice Roucel made one of my favourite ever fragrances when he made Gucci Envy. Imagine my joy when I found similarities between Magnolia en Fleurs and Envy. They're not identical, but both have that stalk, stems and all greenness that I love. Great value and a wonderful green summer scent with good longevity.

This is the best magnolia-bergamot combo. It's a spring-summer scent. When it dries down you can notice the sexy sandalwood mixed in with the fresh scent. This perfume is thick, it projects far and lasts forever. It smells expensive and beautiful.

A deeper, stronger version of Avon LBD Eau Fraiche. A richer, fuller scent. Lovely magnolia and green notes as though a morning spring shower has been followed by an unusually hot afternoon.

Never knew I need this in my life until I tried it. This is so absolutely beautiful that I can't praise enough

While this perfume might smell sharp - if not generic - it is certainly in the same vain as Volare Magnolia and Envy (they all share the same four notes - magnolia, jasmine, some sort of citrussy notes and musk which must be the base that may cause the sense of affinity). Obviously the other two scents have rose and many more notes that make them different but I'm certain that Envy was the inspiration for Magnolia en Fleurs and for Volare Magnolia. Magnolia en Fleurs is the strongest and the sharpest of the three, perhaps the most simplistic, it will likely be disappointing for those who are hoping to find the dupe for Envy here. Still, it is her distant relative in a way. It definitely blends well with early spring weather and the blossoming plum and wild apple trees, it's perfect for cold days - otherwise it might be too screechy. It might also work well for layering with something softer that features hiacynth, rose, lily of the valley, iris, violet, peach, pineapple, sandalwood - anything that is present in Envy but missing here - just to make it milder and not so "in-your-face" kind of thing. I found my way with this scent, despite its rather unsophisticated character but somehow it smells great on me and definitely gives me the "Envy" sensation. I still have and seasonally enjoy Envy - well aware of the differences and similarities between the two.

It feels like a walk through a forest from a bygone era! In which flowers and insects are huge and pterosaurs hover over the giant trees! You can feel that it just stopped raining and as I make my way through the landscape, I see a ray of sunlight drawing me in. I reach a clearing, and what are the weary eyes peeking? Quite right, an English country house, like the one described in Kate Morton’s book "The Lake House“ ...next to the house grows a tree, its size towers over that of the house and the large pink flowers lean on the roof, like children to their mothers. With my eyes closed, I take a deep breath in, mmhhh aahhh... the fragrance is green, fresh, crisp, and yet it is quite clear that it is a flower that sets the tone here. Just as I want to pick up my backpack and explore the house, I feel a furry creature on my leg! I open my eyes, oh it’s my cat, and it wants food - probably - and I, I am at home “Magnolia en Fleurs” in my hand and it has been decided, that’s the perfect scent for a picnic in the park! So I feed the cat, spray me into a cloud of the crisp fragrance, grab my backpack and head off to have a good time...😊

First impressions: I bought a 10ml of this after becoming fascinated by Chloe Magnolia Alba and Frederic Malle Eau De Magnolia. I'm male, and previously "white flowers" had been limited to Neroli, which I do love, but I wanted to expand the floral aspect of my collection, and had also been wowed by smelling real magnolia in France. Anyway this stuff is very good. As Maurice Roucel puts it "the strength of the message is in its simplicity". It's a very clean, fresh perfume that balances the creamy side of magnolia with it's greener, shaper elements. You can smell the pink pepper and perhaps the moss supporting the sharper, greener side, whilst the fresh, crisp magnolia is blended delicately with a touch of the more weighty jasmine and humid, tropical gardenia. This is definitely wearable for a man, although it doesn't prominently feature many traditionally male notes. I'm undecided yet whether I need a full bottle, but it's the middle of winter here and I reckon this will be outrageous in spring time.

As soon as I saw Maurice Roucel’s name, I knew I would love this perfume. I ordered a pack of 5 samples and I think I’m gonna bathe myself in them today until the full version arrives. This is just incredibly beautiful. Just simply gorgeous. So crisp, floral, green... Smells like nature, mountaintops, fresh green forests... Beautiful beautiful beautiful. Never would have thought this was an Avon perfume if I didn’t know it was. They really hit a nail on the head with this one.

Update: the first scent ever that managed to annoy me to the extent that I threw it away, but it might have gone bad in a year.... A very wet, earthy interpretation of magnolia, or white florals. It suits elegant, equilibrated, classical styles, I would not specifically say aged 30 plus, but it certainly requires a level of maturity to wear it well. It lacks the annoying "Avon drydown" I noticed in several other Avon scents and what made me avoid them for a long time. But Maurice Roucel made me buy a 10 ml of this juice, and although it is not my style, so I will never own a full bottle of this, I very much enjoy wearing it now and then in this wet, somewhat gloomy spring we are having now here where I live. And I salute the idea to offer good quality scents for a lower budget, well done, Avon. Excellent longevity, it can easily be oversprayed.

This is my least favorite from the three Avon Artistique line but not because the perfume is bad but because fresh and cold perfumes are my least favorites. It is still a very good quality one and lasts long as the other two from this line.

I had expectations for this one, but turns out it is an epic scrubber AND a toilet freshener. Incredible longevity though - sigh. Sorry, but the reality is that this number smells super cheap and synthetic - were the ingredients top ones, it would have been a masterpiece. Should have known better. On another note, this has NOTHING to do with Envy of Gucci - I used it for a decade, it was my signature, and the two couldn't be further away from one another.

Whoever claims that is smells like Gucci's ENVY must have a cold or a blocked nose. It's a horrible, artificial fragrance that gave me a headache. Don't buy it, don't wear it. Smells like a dead grandma who committed a suicide after after havin a floral bath in which she's soaked her fox fur. BLAH!
