Paradis Paradis

7.4

Atelier Flou · 2010

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Atelier Flou Paradis Paradis is a fresh, floral women's fragrance that suits spring and summer days. Longevity and sillage are moderate; most voters pick spring and summer, and place it mainly in daily and office wear. It reads feminine, though some also call it modern or classic. It opens with bergamot, jasmine and pink pepper, giving a citrusy, floral freshness. Iris at the heart adds a powdery softness, and cedar and vanilla settle the scent onto a woody, creamy base. Green and fruity touches add a light brightness. Diptyque Ilio (Eau de Toilette) and Xerjoff Accento have a close profile.

Monsieur mon Amour

7.3

Atelier Flou

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Atelier Flou Monsieur mon Amour is a men's fragrance that sets a fresh, citrusy mood against floral, green and lightly smoky woods, and it suits spring and summer days at work or in your free time. Most voters recommend it for spring and summer, with fall next and winter trailing behind. Business, leisure and daily wear share almost equal weight, while night outings come lower. Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Most voters find it masculine. Jasmine and citrus notes open it, gaiac wood, frankincense and cedarwood form the heart, and patchouli, ambergris and musk soften the base. The overall impression is fresh and green, with a sweet, spicy and resinous warmth underneath. Its profile is close to Maison Margiela (untitled) and Dunhill Custom.

Sloane Rose

7.6

Atelier Flou

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Atelier Flou Sloane Rose is a fresh floral for women, with a citrus and green brightness built around rose. It opens with jasmine, violet leaf and orange, where the orange adds sparkle and the violet leaf a green coolness. Rose takes over in the heart and gives the floral side its shape. The base of cedarwood and ambergris adds a soft woody, slightly sweet footing, while aquatic and fruity touches keep the whole thing airy. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Voters spread their picks fairly evenly across daily wear, leisure, business, evening and nights out, so it isn't tied to one setting. Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue (Eau de Toilette) and La Rive Aqua Woman have a close profile.

Shamsin

8.1

Atelier Flou

Floral · Spicy · Woody

Atelier Flou Shamsin opens on jasmine and narcissus before settling into a resinous, woody and powdery floral-oriental, made for women. Shamsin's longevity is moderate and its sillage good, though both ratings rest on few votes. It is classed as a women's fragrance. Jasmine and narcissus come first; iris and rose carry the floral side into the heart, while frankincense, labdanum and cistus add a resinous, smoky depth. The base of musk, vanilla, patchouli and cedarwood leaves a sweet, powdery, woody finish. Amouage Fate Woman and Lancôme Attraction have a close profile.

Katana

7.8

Atelier Flou

Fresh · Green · Sweet

Atelier Flou Katana is a fresh, green men's fragrance that settles into spice and wood. It opens with juniper and cypress, which give a cool, green first impression. In the heart, cardamom and coriander bring spice, while sweet and powdery accords soften the edges. Patchouli and musk form a woody base underneath. Longevity and sillage are both rated good, though few people have voted so far. It reads masculine and sits comfortably at a moderate application. L'Erbolario Assenzio and Divine L'Homme de Cœur have a close profile.

Ten Nine

7.1

Atelier Flou

Floral · Green · Fruity

Atelier Flou Ten Nine is a floral and green perfume for women, brightened by fruity and spicy touches. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. There is no information on season or occasion. It opens with bergamot, mandarin orange and blackcurrant for a fresh, fruity start, while jasmine and caraway add a floral and spicy edge. The heart of mastic, rosemary and lavender turns green and resinous. The base of musk, patchouli and ambergris settles into a soft, woody finish. Jacques Chabert is the perfumer. Truefitt & Hill Mayfair and Nicolaï Cologne Sologne have a close profile.

Hora Fugit

8.2

Atelier Flou · 2017

Floral · Green · Sweet

Atelier Flou Hora Fugit is an earthy unisex scent that sets a green, woody core against leathery, smoky and resinous touches. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Only a few people have rated it, so treat that as a rough guide. It reads as neither masculine nor feminine. Bergamot, lavender and bay leaf open green and spicy. At the heart, vetiver, cedar, patchouli and sandalwood build a woody, earthy floor. In the base, leather, benzoin and nutmeg come forward: the scent turns sweeter and settles into a warm, resinous, smoky finish. Jovoy Private Label and Robert Piguet Bois Bleu have a close profile.

Eau d'Aviateur

7.1

Atelier Flou

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Atelier Flou Eau d'Aviateur is a fresh, citrusy and green fragrance, classed as a men's scent. The top opens with citrus notes, bergamot and orange, bright and fruity. In the heart, floral notes, petitgrain and violet leaf add a green, slightly earthy tone. The base of musk, maté, civet and sandalwood settles it onto a woody, faintly animal ground, with a spicy touch lingering behind. Creed Silver Mountain Water and Zara White Tag have a close profile.
