That was my first thought: 1 A body lotion. Or fancy face cream. Or nice hand cream. In any case, thick, rich white cream.
Clean, pure, floral, well-groomed, rich, enveloping, protective, radiant.
For me: no overt floral scent. Definitely not old-fashioned. I am amazed: something this clean from Miss von Teese? No burlesque in sight, instead a white, fresh, gentle purity, with a few delicate flowers floating here and there. But far from a bouquet. Or rather, if it is a bouquet, then each individual flower is drenched in this white cream. The lily is un-lily-like, the lilac barely recognizable, and the iris only contributes to these fresh-white-creamy moments instead of the usual powdery notes.
The impact is surprisingly strong: Madison Soirée is an equal volume reference, while I found the Bond far too soapy and strict. FleurTeese, on the other hand, is much softer and smoother, yet still boasts excellent longevity and sillage.
A creamy gem for the super slim wallet. And of course, for the clean animal list.

Yep, exactly my association. That's why it's not for me. But the bottle really feels nice in hand!

The lilac knocked me out. It's always the same: I only like it on the bush; otherwise, it's a headache alert (whether sprayed or just in the room)...

Tested, bought, and found to be super creamy-good. Great tip for budget-conscious clean freaks :-)

Really?? It's such a creamy scent? :-P I'm afraid of lilac, so I've ignored it until now, but now I can't wait to try the tester..!
