Fleurs de Nuit

How is this fragrance so underrated? It seems like people generally prefer the original Badgley Mischka that has sweeter accords. I could tell that one wasn’t going to be my style judging from the notes but I LOVE Fleurs. It’s a perfect fit for the clean girl aesthetic and it’s one of those ‘non perfume’ perfumes. It is predominantly jasmine to my nose but I feel like it mingles well with the rest of the notes. I also love the comment below mine about soaking in a bathtub in a luxury resort in Greece. Yes! I can totally envision that with this scent. This captures the smell of a bubble bath after you have soaked in the sun on the beach all day. I really do detect all of the individual aspects that build a beach profile: the sun, the sand, and the suntan oil/lotion. The orange blossom and citrus project through bringing a clean, slight soapiness. The amber makes this a little sensual while a creamy sweetness peeking through differentiates this from being a standard clean or beachy fragrance. Essentially, it has a little bit of everything I enjoy and yet not anything excessively. I feel like it’s a good combination of Child, Glow, and Jessica McClintock. Those are three of my personal faves so it makes sense that I would gravitate towards this. I am surprised that Child especially is never compared to Fleurs. They have similar dominances of jasmine and magnolia and although they aren’t 1:1 dupes, I feel like they could be in the same fragrance family. Also like Child, this is an ethereal fragrance with impressive sillage and longevity. It’s not heavy but projects naturally on your skin to gently remind you of its intimate presence. Layering them together creates a beautiful, unique combination. You can get this very affordably and like others have mentioned, the bottle is beautiful. I am really happy with this!

Fleurs De Nuit is all about white flowers and then, even more flowers, Folks. No fruits. No woods. Just strong florals. Even though I am not a big fan of florals I can tell Fleurs De Nuit smells extremely elegant and would suit an extremely confident woman. It is bold, powerful, rich, classy, without any sweetness or fruity undertones. If I was asked what Fleurs De Nuit taste like, I would say bitter-sweet but highly addictive. It will not be my winter fragrance as I have impression I would freeze to death if I wore it on a chilly, snowy morning. Spring and cool summer nights would be best time to make friends with Fleurs De Nuit. Not for shy or faint hearted. The bottle, like all BM bottles, is lovely and classy. Lasting power and silage are to die for. Even though the olfactive group is not my favourite, my heart tells me I've found my number one for the next year spring. Therefore it scores 10/10. P.S. The fragrance name should really be Fleurs De Jour as it reminds me of jasmine and magnolia blossom on a spring sunny day :-)

This was one of those where I read the notes and said to myself "this sounds like a scent for me!" and got a bottle ... and am VERY pleased. I was so pleased I immediately went back to eBay and ordered ANOTHER bottle! It's just a lovely scent - the florals mix together to create such a lovely scent; it is somewhat difficult to describe by someone like me who doesn't have the education to distinguish notes, but I can definitely tell that this is a quality perfume. It goes on sweet and clean and dries down without becoming cloying, florals mixing and dancing throughout, like walking through a garden in bloom with the most delicious-smelling flowers to be found. I think it is one to be used any time, any place (personally - because I rarely do anything special to warrant "special" use stuff, so for me any time is the right time to use stuff I like!), but I can understand when people say it's for special nights, romantic use, etc., because it really is beautiful. Highly recommended to those who love florals!

I can't remember how I stumbled onto this, maybe because I had some Badgley Mischka items in my wardrobe and looked up to see whether this design duo had a perfume (or two) in their repertoire. I was immediately attracted to the classy/sexy bottle and the name (French for Night Flowers). Receiving a NWOB 4 oz bottle from Ebay, I immediately tried it and the initial spritzes bloomed into a spicy floral that was magic with my chemistry. It's not a "flower bomb" type of fragrance, nor a sweet floral; rather that the fragrance is tempered by other notes that make it sensual and complex. With a couple of brief spritzes, the dry down turns into more of a radiant skin scent within a couple of hours on me, but that's ok; I am working in a lot of group situations lately, and don't want to overwhelm. One of my male colleagues remarked recently that I smelled "intoxicating" which pleased me no end!

Gorgeous white floral of jasmine and orange blossom that opens with magnolia touched with a little peach, bringing to mind the saucer magnolias that bloom in early spring where I live. They are sweetly floral and a little fruity, and exactly how it smells in this perfume. The composition as a whole is beautiful and performance is terrific too. Despite being soft and unimposing, this is workhorse that I was aware of throughout the day. I'm mad at myself for having put off buying this when I could have been enjoying it all along. Despite knowing one of my favorite perfumers, Rodrigo Flores-Roux, created this the contradictory reviews had me hesitant. Just goes to show that while reviews can be helpful, there is nothing like trying it yourself as everyone has different tastes and chemistry. I'm so glad I took the plunge and bought it after all. It really is one heck of a beautiful perfume.

I am going to GUSH. This fragrance is my personal white floral HEAVEN. It's so beautiful I am struggling to find the words to tell you how beautiful I think it is. Jasmine definitely dominates but I also get lily-of-the-valley even though it's not in there. It feels like every light sweet white floral note blending together in the most magical way. I am definitely a fall/winter person but this fragrance is enough to make me dream of springtime. The strikingly beautiful bottle is a lovely bonus. I've bought a few backup bottles as I fear it will become hard to find. Can you tell that I love it?

That's a lovely,modern and feminime perfume. Great for everyday use. I like to use it when I'm tired or dull, it is so refreshing in 2 minutes I'm myself again. I think the white flowers suits almost every women, it could be a good gift idea too. I actually bought it without trying out, in a huge sale at strawberrynet, so I don't know the original prize, but if it ever runs out, I might repurchase. The only con is the bottle, which looks lovely but impossible to carry around, the top comes off easily and it's too big. But if you want to use it at home only, it's fine.

I adore this, it's a shame it is discontinued. I know what they *say* we should smell, but my nose knows definitely crisp fruit, citrusy and short lived. The floral plays its part next, sweeter and sweeter as time goes forward. It ends as honeysuckle with a little literal honey towards the end. The only way it could be better is if it was stronger and longer lived. I guess it's like butterflies that way.

I love it!! I got it in the mail today, a blind buy. after reading the reviews I was afraid it would be too fresh and green, like the Face a Face by Faconnable that pretty much smelled like men perfume. I'm so glad this doesn't! it's super feminine and subtly sweet. This is really a classy and pleasant scent, very natural and flowery... I highly recommend

This perfume reminds me of Marc Jacobs (the original) with loads of creamy jasmine, very similar like a sister family connection. I loved it, just simply floral and very feminine, perfect for summer, night or day.

This good smelling juice is the twin of Beyond Paradise, Estee Lauder, only a bit softer, which means sweeter with better longevity on the skin than BP (that one is more sharp). One of the nicest bottles around.

despite what others say ,this does remind me of fracas alot!,love fracas, love this ..Silky white floral ,ultra feminine ...pretty , fresh ,just sooooooo beautiful .A must for any white floral lover .

Love it. Had struggled with finding a romantic sophisticated floral that wasn't too heavy/warm/smothering (nauseating) or too green (headache-inducing). This is perfect, I love it, I'm keeping it!

This is straight up magnolia on me. And you know what, I’m not mad about it. This is gorgeous. It’s also tough to overspray. A few sprays does last all day however.

LOVE IT!! just makes me feel so sophistcated. Its long lasting, and the floral notes are lovely. I like how the wood and amber notes give it an edge. SO GOOD

A perfectly acceptable generic white floral for day to day wear. As others have pointed out, there is nothing ground breaking here, unlike BM's first release. It's a bit artificial and just teeters on the edge of cloying for me. I will definitely wear it, but I own so many far superior jasmines and white florals that it won't be the first I reach for. It does smooth out a bit after about 30 minutes, and the magnolia and orange flower add a somewhat citrus-like lift to the whole thing. It has good longevity and projection with just 2 or 3 sprays - less than that if you prefer a more intimate effect. All in all, a successful blind buy for the low price I paid, but if you want a higher quality jasmine/white floral, you might want to pass on this one. EDIT 10/6/2020 - I tried this again recently, and reading through my review, I don't think I gave this enough credit It really IS a beautiful white floral. Not sure what made me think it was almost cloying previously, perhaps the weather, but you can do much worse for a lot more money than this one goes for on Ebay. I noticed that BM has a new Badgley Mishka EDP, that is different from the lovely Badgley Mishka that earned 5 stars in The Guide. It actually seems to be more of a combination of this one and the original, at least the notes overlap quite a bit. I don't know if that mean this and the OG have been discontinued, but keep in mind that the prices may go up if they have been. I have fallen in love with both.

I do not understand the complaints about the name of Badgley Mischka FLEURS DE NUIT. Seems pretty straightforward to me: this is essentially a night-blooming jasmine quasi-soliflore. The jasmine definitely dominates the composition and makes this a white flower lovers-only perfume. FLEURS DE NUIT offers a big, stern, and relatively dry dose of only mildly indolic jasmine. The sillage and longevity are both excellent, and a little goes a long, long way. I generally prefer more buttery, lush presentations of white flowers, as in MARC JACOBS and MJ ESSENCE, but FLEURS DE NUIT is nice, for what it is. (There is zero tuberose in FLEURS DE NUIT, so there's no point in comparing/contrasting it to FRACAS or CARNAL FLOWER.) Perhaps I should be glad that my 100ml will suffice for the rest of my life, as I would find it very difficult to part with the gorgeous bottle, one of the nicest I've seen. I usually keep my perfumes hidden away in the dark, but this one is so beautiful that I'm tempted to endanger the juice by putting the bottle out on display.

I got a generous sample of the lovely jaspersen of this one, after I was dying to test this, due to the magically beautiful bottle, the fact that I like the original Badgley Mischka and that I should like it according to the notes. And yes I do! To me Fleurs de Nuit opens with slightly sugared sweet-and-sour but clear white flowers, which, while it's not listed in the notes, I detect as lily-of-the-valley. Later it dries down in a quite casual (but high quality still) floral scent which really reminds me of some other perfume my mother used to wear when I was younger, but I just can't put my finger on it. I'll ask her if she maybe reminds. The sillage is quite soft and don't know yet about the staying power, but all in all I do not believe it is really a night fragrance as the name assumes, but just highly likable, age-friendly and very wearable! As long as you have not too high I-hope-for-a-interesting-niche-masterpiece expectations everything should be fine :)

This perfume is very sweet, but also very fresh and clean. I can't smell anything but fresh flowers, which is too bad since I love peach and amber. Every now and then there is a scent that might be peach... then it quickly fades into the background. The fresh sweet floral has no softness or anything lush or creamy going for it, and is not romantic the way floral perfumes can be. Instead it is very clear and crystalline, which is strange because it projects well enough There's something that seems very modern, maybe because it seems simple, squeaky clean, no powder or vanilla or musky notes like more classic florals, like a glass sculpture of a flower instead of an actual flower. I used to wear this several times a week and never really got tired of it. Also, I even got a few compliments.

I rarely like jasmine as a starring note, but Fleurs de Nuit features this powerhouse blossom to perfection. To start, the clean, citrus notes keep the rich flowers curiously fresh without any inherent zing. Magnolia provides the jasmine with a deep, velvety introduction, while orange blossoms weave their playfulness throughout, taming jasmine's inebriating bouquet. The addition of peach gives the fragrance a fleshy quality that helps the flowers bloom continously, making them appear 'alive.' The base lends a warm and radiant sophistication that dries down to a lingering romantic trail. This what a walk after dark in the springtime smells like, in a corner of the city lined with Victorian townhouses covered with trellissed blossoming vines.
