Gâteau des Anges

Wow! This is a very unique, absolutely beautiful, almost angelic, fluffy cloud like fragrance. Don’t be put off by the notes. Nothing in this is heavy, sickly sweet or overly cakey. This is amazingly well blended! Gateau Des Anges opens with light notes of peach, butter and lemon, with a hint of whisky faintly in the background. As it dries down the milky vanilla/caramel and a sugary tuberose/honeysuckle mix appear. The dry down is where it’s at. It’s absolutely stunning! The best way I can describe this is like a fluffy, pillowy soft, cloud light sponge cake. It’s decorated with a mix of tuberose and honeysuckle flowers, drizzled with a little caramel sauce and dusted with vanilla icing sugar. The name is just perfect because this is very light and airy. It’s also long lasting. I got a good 6-8 hours wear out of this and the scent bubble was divine! I would wear this year round. I can’t stop smelling this and had to add this to my collection. If you like Gourmands, this is an absolute MUST try! I absolutely love it! 10/10! Some have compared this to D&G Devotion which I love, but this scent didn’t come to mind when I smelt Gâteau des Anges .... so I compared them side by side and can 100% say these are two completely different fragrances: Devotion - is a fun, sweet and sugary lemon scent that reminds me of Limoncello. Gâteau des Anges - is a much more refined and sophisticated type of gourmand resembling a fluffy angel cake with a good dose of vanilla/tuberose icing sugar. WARNING - for anyone in the UK, this cost me an additional £90 in shipping and import fees! The perfume is already very expensive for 50ml, so it’s only worth buying if you live in the US. Absolutely not worth it for UK customers.

Some fragrances whisper. Some announce. But Gâteau des Anges by Fleurit Parfums speaks without words, weaving its message into the air with such grace and warmth that it transcends language itself. It doesn’t just scent the skin—it elevates the soul. From the first delicate mist, I felt something shift—not outward, but inward. A quiet awakening of beauty that seemed to rise from within me. It’s as though the fragrance carries a memory you’ve never lived, of joy, softness, and golden light. The scent is a sophisticated composition, balancing creamy, sun-warmed bourbon vanilla with the crisp brightness of citrus, all wrapped in a comforting whisper of something almost edible, like the name suggests: Gâteau des Anges—cake of angels. Its elegant yet embracing. Each note unfolds like a smile, inviting not only admiration but connection. What makes this all the more special is the woman behind it. Fleurit Parfums is a small, women-owned business—born from friendship, built on love, and guided by an unshakable belief in the beauty of women. You can feel that intention in every detail—from the meticulously handcrafted blends to the thoughtfully designed bottle, and the kind of personalized service that makes you feel not just like a customer, but part of something deeply meaningful. This is more than a fragrance; it’s a love letter to femininity, connection, and the quiet power of being seen.

Knowing Lynn, the visionary and creator behind Fleurit, has given me a deeper appreciation for the artistry and care infused into every detail of this brand. As a devoted lover of vanilla fragrances, I can confidently say that this fragrance is pure magic. In fact, it has easily claimed the coveted spot as my number one vanilla fragrance in my entire collection—and that’s saying something, especially as this was a generous gift from the brand. After reading a previous lengthy negative review of this fragrance and Fleurit as a whole, I would encourage readers to take it with a grain of salt. There’s always more to the story, and my personal experience with the brand has been nothing short of exceptional. If you’re considering adding a Fleurit fragrance to your collection, I wouldn’t hesitate. From the thoughtfully crafted packaging—a quiet, understated luxury—to the sublime fragrances themselves, every aspect is a testament to French-inspired craftsmanship and dedication to quality.

Gateau des Anges is a fragrance that immediately captures the imagination. From the first moment it touches the skin, it unveils a delicate, airy sweetness that feels both indulgent and ethereal—true to its name. It’s the kind of fragrance that lingers gently, creating a beautiful sillage that turns heads without overwhelming. Gateau des Anges feels like a personal luxury—perfect for everyday wear or special occasions. What truly sets this experience apart, though, is not just the fragrance itself but the exceptional care from Fleurit Parfum. The customer service was warm, responsive, and genuinely thoughtful—from packaging to communication, every detail felt intentional and personal. It made the entire experience feel as special as the perfume itself. The other sense within the collection are equally pleasing! This is definitely a must have in every perfume collection.

The dabber sample I paid 20 dollars for from @kaylovely came completely shattered because she decided to pack it in nothing but a reused thin mailer envelope with a piece of printer paper she claims it was supposed to be wrapped in but it was not folded or creased at all and also had 80% of it cut out :/ no box, no inner wrapping, no protection. Just threw a glass vial in a thin mailer after cutting out her info from the scent burrd receipt without even bothering to remove the unrelated perfume pamphlet from them and called it a day. she refuses to refund me and actually had the audacity to link me to the usps claims website and tell me to deal with it lol. Not even a sorry or admission of fault. Mind you, I waited almost two weeks and gave her grace to send it at her own pace too. Do not order from her, just pay ten more dollars and get it new from the site

Thank you @Eau_des_vanille! On the plus side, the sample from the site, though it hurts to order because it’s expensive, comes fast and is well packed! On the scent itself, this was a love at first sniff for me. It smells hard to describe - kind of like sweet cake with citrus or fruits of some kind and I do smell the honeysuckle but it doesn’t smell floral, it just adds to the sweetness somehow. It almost smells like that colorful cereal milk, I forgot the name. It somehow smells like love don’t be shy without smelling anything like it, like what I wished it would be. It smells nostalgic and sweet and beautiful, gourmand yet elegant. I wish it came in a 100ml. I ordered it instantly and shipping was super fast. I couldn’t recommend this more. Favorite find of the year 100000%

Gateau des Anges is an irresistible scent. From the moment I first sampled it, I felt as though it had been made just for me. The blend of vanilla, honeysuckle, and caramel is perfectly balanced. It’s sweet, warm, and captivating. Every time I wear Gateau des Anges, people ask about the beautiful fragrance and where they can buy it. Knowing that Fleurit Parfums is a woman owned business makes it all the more special to me. The attention to detail from the elegant packaging to the surprise atomizer made my purchase feel luxurious and personal. I couldn’t be happier with this scent!

This is so similar to cow by zoologist at least on me, the milky scent and apple. Though it says peach in the notes to me it reads apple. Cow is a bit more barny with the hay note where this is much sweeter and vanilla. The opening on this is a bit odd i didnt like it until the dry down but after it dries down goddd its probably one of my fav scents ive tried this year. Very sweet vanilla + crisp fruit + creamy milk. Gorgeous!

I ordered my sample directly from Fleurit and was surprised to receive a 2ml splash vial. Shockingly, I splashed this scent around 7pm and it's still a lingering skin scent the next morning. How is such an airy scent able to last on skin until the next day? My husband loves it and he typically can't tolerate any powdery scents. This really does smell like a "vanillic" angel food cake.

A realistic lemon cake scent. In the opening I get lemon and milk, like you've gathered up your ingredients and you have the bowls sitting on the countertop. As it dries down it softens and I start picking up the butter and the vanilla. The peach adds an extra touch of sweetness and warmth. It's one of the few gourmands that I actually wear.

To me this is a soft powdery vanilla. I don't really get the lemon or the butter, but maybe they provide some silkiness to the scent. I really enjoy it and think it's FBW. It seems that everyone smells something different in this one, so I don't think it's a good blind buy (TBH I don't think anything above $50 is a good blind buy).

Realistic, long lasting lemon pound cake scent. Feels a little vintage in a nostalgic and comfortable way. Like a yellow 1950s kitchen with pastel tiles and frilly curtains. A little too simple and gourmand for me, but as someone who isn’t a big fan of lemon notes this is still yummy. Good for layering as it’s pretty simple.

Gâteau des Anges by Fleurit Parfums is my new favorite fragrance! It’s absolutely delicious and lasts all day. The balance of sweet warmth, a little citrus and the most beautiful vanilla is intoxicating. I get compliments every time I wear it - which is every day! It arrived quickly and the packaging is exquisite.

This perfume is a head turner! Every time I wear it I get noticed and the best part is that is really lasts!! It can also be paired with Sainte Fumee for another twist!! I love love this fragrance. On another note it arrived fast and great packaging!

I just tried this last night and I absolutely love this! I am NOT a gourmand girl so this is actually right up my alley. Its slightly gourmand but way more elevated and SOOOO fluffy and beautiful. Definitely bottle worthy.

I’m firmly team angel food cake, with a hint of fruity pebbles/smarties candies. Very pretty! Airy and creamy and I’m sure a lot of gourmand lovers would dig this.

Such a nice creamy, lactonic unique fragrance with a beautiful light spongecake citrus. This is so nice. I think it is a beautiful release.

Smells exactly like vanilla angel food cake! Light and fluffy, in a very elegant French style perfume.

Impressed by this offering by Fleurit. By far the longest lasting fragrance I have tried from them. ANGEL CAKE brings to mind something Victoria's Secret would come up with if they ventured into gourmands, but if you say it in French it matches the vibe a little better. It's truly lactonic, but unlike Afternoon Delight, the sourness is not so pungent. It's not photorealistic cake. It's not a madeleine cookie being chucked at your face. It reminds me of a comforting kitchen or a warm home... during Christmas... when no one is fighting... and you just had a dessert of pie and ice cream. It's the real Proust Barbie scent.

Surprisingly love it. Im not a gourmand girlie I like fresh florals and woody, airy, breezy but this is my gateway into vanillas! First sprayed on it smells like buttery lemon, not too sweet and I have an aversion' to sweet scents.As it settles it turns into a not too sweet vanilla with a hint of cream. Wish the lemon scent stuck around for longer.
