A Beautiful and Inviting Bouquet
Creed FLEURISSIMO is a lush, creamy, rose and tuberose-rich floral fragrance which I find quite natural and very appealing. I was beginning to wonder (after INDIANA) whether the Creed people were confused about tuberose, but here it is in all its glory, showcased in a floral composition with real depth and grandeur but without being über-floral in the least. FLEURISSIMO is also entirely devoid of the aggressivity and sharpness of FANTASIA DE FLEURS.
Rose and tuberose definitely predominate, but both violet and iris are also important notes. I believe that I detect lily of the valley as well, but it could be the "wildflower" note. Perhaps lily of the valley is considered a wildflower? The overall effect is slightly sweet, albeit not from anything but the petals of flowers. I have no idea why anyone would compare this perfume (disparaginingly, at that!) to Jean Patou JOY, which is a civet bomb. No civet here whatsoever. Not a drop.
FLEURISSIMO is a must try for all and only floral lovers. I especially recommend this beautiful and well-balanced bouquet with good sillage and lasting power to those who appreciate bodacious bouquets such as FRACAS. I love FRACAS, but I must say that this natural-smelling bouquet is more versatile and wearable by me.
