A Bruised Apricot
La Belle Flower Edition is a fragrance that primarily smells of apricot.
A sweet, jam-like apricot. But to me, there’s an underlying scent that feels off. The apricot seems overripe, past its prime - almost spoiled. There’s a hint of dampness, something reminiscent of an old, musty cellar, which spoils what could have been a lovely fruity jam.
I can only assume this comes from the patchouli. It’s not entirely bad, but this undertone keeps me from fully enjoying it. For a beautiful apricot or osmanthus fragrance, I would rather go for Osmanthus.
