Gourmand White Flowers

I just ordered this one and I cant wait to try it! I am currently on the hunt for a signature scent and have been trying different perfumes for over a year with no luck. I need something long lasting & versatile because my weather goes from extreme hot to extreme cold. My husband loves sweet caramel on me(Gold Couture) but it gets cloying in hot weather. I really hope Gourmand White Flowers hits the spot. Update 2/13/2025- this is a wierd one for me! I really had my hopes up, then after the first sprays I had to scrub it off. To me, it smelled like a musty, moldy, patchouli-like moldy BO. Not good. I kept coming back to it every few weeks and still had the same reaction. Fast forward to yesterday 2/12 and tried a full douse again just for the heck of it. Let me tell you, either my nose or the perfume evolved because it smelled waaayyyyy better. Good longevity on this one it lasted 8 hours at work. Update 2/27/2025 I have completely fallen in love with this scent! Excellent longevity with a beautiful composition. Intial spray is fresh and powdery, then becomes sweet florals for quite a while. 4-5hrs is where i gets magical, and I am left with musky, sweet, vanilla-ey goodness. This is now my signature scent❤️❤️ I'm buying my next bottle now so it can sit and macerate for a while before I need it.

my mother ADORES flowerbomb but never bought it bc she hates buying anything not on sale, so i went and bought it for her over the holidays. when i was trying out dossier, i decided to grab multiple scents we had the originals for at home to double check how close the dupes are, and to my mom's surprise, this is SPOT on. we sprayed both of them on paper and skin, and we genuinely couldn't tell a difference at all. i think the dry down may be sweeter than the original, but otherwise it still lasted over 5 hours on us and smelled lovely. since there's a $100 difference between them, my mom ended up asking me to return flowerbomb and kept this instead. they've started selling this in walmart too, so i highly recommend for affordability/accessibility!

It has a soft, sugary sweetness (I'm guessing this is the caramel, which surprised me that this was a note as affordable fragrances w/ caramel notes usually have a chemical, almost sour scent, but this doesn't do that at all), a powdery note, and for the first ~30 minutes I get a good amount of the white flower, which I love, although some people can be sensitive towards this so I think it is worth noting. It dries down and keeps the sugar, powder and musk, I don't get too much patchouli or vanilla though. I think this one is lovely, very fluffy and girly, with a bit of sensuality, I think it's wonderful, especially for the price too.

This is my favorite Dossier scent. It's the only one that isn't weak enough that I use it as a layering piece. Initial spray is a complex blast of florals, then dies down to a patchouli gourmand musk. Like other Dossier perfumes, the top and middle notes die off pretty fast so you're left with the base notes and that's the main reason you should use any dossier fragrance. Good cheap options for layering. This has inspired me to buy a decant of Flowerbomb, potentially even a full bottle. I'd like to experience the genuine complexity potential that I smell in this.

I actually think this is better than Flowerbomb. Flowerbomb is a bit sickly sweet and juvenile, while Dossier’s Gourmande White Flowers is on the fresher, more grown up side. The addition of the tea makes it fresher and the caramel gives it a buttery sweet undertone. I read someone else saying that this is a more grown up Flowerbomb and I totally agree. It has insane longevity, projects but not too much and smells expensive. Everywhere I go people make comments that it smells like Flowebomb but better! Best $29 I’ve ever spent.

I blind bought this one and 5 others on last year's Cyber Monday sale. For a year this has been my favorite out of the 6 I bought. I never smelled Flowerbomb, so I had no idea what I was getting. It's sweet but not too much sweet. I loved it so much I went out and bought Flowerbomb too. I have to say...the Dossier version is better. It's smoother, longer lasting, we'll blended and way more affordable. I'm Not sad I have the OG now too. I think this scent will be with me for life

Dossier fragrances are mostly huge misses for me, but Gourmand White Flowers (along with Powdery Vanilla) are the only two I've loved and opted not to return. This smelled fantastic straight out-of-the-box. No alcohol smell at all. The opening is pure white flowers, and the dry down is an airy, vanilla caramel musk... not animalic, heavy or cloying. It's an excellent everyday, sophisticated gourmand that I think even the staunchest white floral dislikers will enjoy. :)

Beautiful scent, I've gotten many compliments wearing it. It's a flowery sweet fragrance very elegant and smooth. It projects about arm length. The lasting power could be better, as I place it around 3 hours on both clothes and skin. I recommend a travel atomizer for your purse so you don't have to carry the whole bottle around. 8/10

Love love love this as a dupe for Flowerbomb!!! I'll never buy that one again due to the poor performance at that price. This is a spot-on dupe with much better performance, and priced low enough to spray and respray as needed. Fantastic, a love!

Fantastic combination of florals and fruity sweet scents. Not too sweet, not too floral, just right. It is a clean fresh scent that I feel is best to be worn in the spring or summer. Reminds me of sweet pea from BBW, but more high end.

This is my signature scent! Sophisticated yet girly and youthful, and lasts a long time on my skin. I’ve never owned the OG Flowerbomb, but after smelling a tester version of it at the mall, I think this is a spot on dupe.

I feel like this is sweeter than flower bomb but I actually like it so much better! Only $30 at Walmart!! I definitely recommend if you don’t want to spend as much for the real flower bomb!

I have been searching for something to replace the 2021 Sensual Amber shaped hole in my heart. This is it! I don't normally get compliments on perfume but this I do. I can die happy.

I like this overall! Upon first spray, very floral-heavy, and remains floral, but dries down more caramelly sweet. Lasts long and projects well on me. 8/10

I used flowerbomb on one wrist and this on the other and I couldn't tell but a slight difference in the initial spray but the dry down is identical.

I absolutely love this fragrance. It's sweet and floral, with caramely undertones. I haven't smelled Flower Bomb but I do like this.

Better than the OG, in my opinion. This is a lovely perfume. Smooth and crisp at the same time. I am really enjoying this.

White flowers melting into caramel. Caramel notes stick around for the majority of the day. Really lovely for the price.

It's really good! Smells almost exactly like flower bomb. Lasts long on clothes. Very sweet smoky and fresh.

Ive never owned a full bottle of flowerbomb but I have multiple minis from when Sephora used to send them with an order (sometime in 2016-17) and to me this dossier perfume smells nothing like them . The minis of flowerbomb are just strong patchouli with a hint of flowers , every time I tried it I would have to scrub it right away , maybe it changes into something different after it sets ? Who knows? But I definitely don’t get what other people say about FB. The dossier fragance is very feminine but also sexy , it starts powdery and sweet , I can definitely smell the caramel in this but it’s not candy sweet , I don’t think this is cloying at all, perfect for spring and it can definitely be worn in warm weather . Edit : I couldn’t get out of my head the comparisons between FB and dossier and I pulled one of my mini FB to revisit . Something changed because this is not how I remembered it , maybe my taste evolved or the perfume got time to macerate. I still get strong patchouli at first but it’s not offensive anymore, then the powdery florals come through. I still don’t think gourmand white florals is a dupe, I can see the resemblance as both are powdery florals (it takes FB a good 4 hours to evolve into what dossier is at first spray) . In my opinion the dossier perfume is softer, sweeter and girly , more suitable for every day , whereas FB feels more mature , sexier , definitely a night time perfume.
