Champ Bleu du Ciel

Caron · 2021

Fresh · Citrus · Green

Caron Champ Bleu du Ciel is a fresh, citrus-led and green unisex fragrance with a woody backbone. The notes read as a single piece rather than in layers. Mandarin orange, lemon, bitter orange, grapefruit and bergamot give it a bright citrus body, while pink pepper and carrot seed add a dry, green edge. Virginia cedar, Haitian vetiver, gaiac wood and oakmoss form the woody base, softened by orris and ambroxan. The overall impression is clean, cool and slightly synthetic, sitting between masculine and feminine. Obvious Un Bois and Kilian Kologne Shield of Protection have a close profile.

Poivre Impérial

5.5

Caron · 2021

Fresh · Floral · Aquatic

Caron Poivre Impérial is a unisex scent that sets Sichuan pepper, Madagascar pepper and saffron against a floral backdrop. The spicy accord comes from the two peppers, with saffron adding warmth. Turkish rose absolute and lotus carry the floral side, while frankincense brings a resinous, slightly smoky edge. Aquatic notes keep it fresh, and cashmeran lends a powdery, creamy softness. Its sillage is rated good by those who voted, though the sample is small, so treat that as a first impression. It suits anyone who wants something fresh and spicy at once, regardless of gender. Comme des Garçons 8 88 and Bvlgari Le Gemme - Lazulia have a close profile.

Belle de Niassa

5.6

Caron · 2023

Citrus · Floral · Green

Caron Belle de Niassa is a floral, fruity women's fragrance in which ylang-ylang and jasmine sit beside the fresh, juicy sweetness of green mango and starfruit. The notes have no top, heart or base split, so the scent reads as one whole from start to finish. Madagascan ylang-ylang, Indian jasmine sambac absolute, Chinese magnolia and Jasminum auriculatum absolute build the floral core. Green mango, starfruit, watermelon and blackcurrant add a citrusy, green and sweet fruit brightness around it. Powdery and creamy shades among the accords soften the flowers. Caron Infini and Tiffany & Co. Sheer have a close profile.

Narcisse Blanc (2017) (Parfum)

8.1

Caron · 2017

Floral · Green · Spicy

Caron Narcisse Blanc is a green, powdery floral built around jasmine, iris and neroli, made for women and now discontinued. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the vote count is small, so these ratings are a tendency rather than a firm verdict. It is classed as a feminine perfume. The scent is floral at heart: jasmine, rose, lilac, orange blossom and neroli form a green bouquet, with petitgrain carrying the greenness. Iris adds a powdery softness, and sandalwood gives a woody base. Spicy and animal accords stay in the background, adding depth to the flowers. Narcisse Noir and Marions Nous have a close profile.

Pour Une Femme (2017) (Parfum)

7.4

Caron · 2017

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Caron Pour Une Femme (2017) is a floral, powdery women's fragrance that links the freshness of green mandarin and orange blossom to the sweet warmth of benzoin and amber; it has been discontinued. The top holds green mandarin orange and orange blossom, while the heart brings benzoin and Rosa centifolia. Amber and frankincense soften the base. The overall impression is floral and fruity, sweet and powdery, with spice and chypre staying in the background. Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small, so that picture is tentative. It reads as a feminine scent. Jean Patou Que Sais-Je? and Caron Pour Une Femme de Caron (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.

N'Aimez que Moi (Eau de Parfum)

8.6

Caron

Fresh · Floral · Sweet

Eau de Parfum

Caron N'Aimez que Moi Eau de Parfum is a floral, powdery women's fragrance that opens with rose and lilac and settles into iris, vanilla and Mysore sandalwood. Rose and lilac give the opening a fresh floral lift. In the heart, iris and cedarwood pull it towards a powdery, woody line. The base turns sweeter with vanilla and Mysore sandalwood, with a spicy touch lingering in the background. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though few votes back this up. The perfume has been discontinued. Dior New Look 1947 and Guerlain Eau de Lingerie have a close profile.

Accord 119 (2021)

7.0

Caron · 2021

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Caron Accord 119 is a women's fragrance where floral and fruity character meets sweet, powdery and resinous tones. The notes read as one whole rather than a sequence of stages. Blackberry and blackcurrant bring a sweet, fruity side, while heliotrope, violet and Egyptian jasmine absolute turn it into a powdery floral. Frankincense and patchouli add a resinous, earthy depth, and vanilla with musk softens the blend and rounds it off with an animalic warmth.
