Belle de Nuit Intense

When I first tried on Belle de nuit, eau de parfum, I thought It was one of the most original scents I had tried for years, and seemed high quality. Although when I looked at the price tag, wasn't sure if I could afford that much, but as time went on my mind kept going back to wishing I had it, and then after receiving gift vouchers for the store, I then at last owned this perfume. It's described as oriental with musk, but it was the floral that caught my attention. Maybe it's the Ylang Ylang, as I've always found that fragrance to be sexy, but I think it's lightened with white flowers such as lily of the valley and jasmine. I like it so much that I keep spraying on at home to smell myself as it makes me feel good. I agree with a previous review on here, that says it's like lying in a field of flowers at dusk.

StellaXYH's review is spot on: Belle de Nuit Intense smells a lot like a body lotion or face cream. It's on my love shelf for this very reason. I don't think it's spectacular, and I don't think it's made with high quality ingredients but I'm sure it would make me smell like I've just stepped out of the shower and applied a body cream, which is what I want to smell like on my uninspired days. It's a very inoffensive floral because it never smells like the actual flowers, so I think you could like this even if you're generally not a tuberose fan or a rose fan. Longevity (on smell strip) is great for a Fragonard.

During the first few minutes of Fragonard Belle de Nuit Intense, I was able to discern tuberose and gardenia. However, they soon mellows into a creamy floral blend, with a light touch of pear. Entering the 2-hour mark, I find rose becoming more prominent. But none of the flowers is overpowering the composition. With its low projection, it actually feels like a smooth floral body lotion, and stays so for about 5 hours. A natural-smelling floral fragrance, pleasant, gentle and feminine. An easy-to-wear everyday fragrance for a floral lover.

This is a sweet white floral with a generous dose of pear. Not too fruity though the pear isn't overwhelming but complements the sweetness of the white florals. Lasts nicely, noticeable but not overwhelming projection. White floral you could wear in an office setting and not worry about it being "too much." Really beautifully blended, not one note overpowered the others but they all worked well together.

Lying down in a field of flowers at dusk : that's how I feel when I breathe it. Very beautiful fragrance, floral and woody. To me it's the same family as Anais Anais Cacharel or Pivoine Yves Rocher. Only delicate flowers ! Perfect for spring. Good lasting power.
