Fresh, aquatic, floral, and…coconutty?
This is a beautiful, fresh, and floral focused flanker to the OG La Belle, by none other than Quentin Bisch. I love almost everything this man creates.
I must admit, Fleur Terrible is an interesting name but I’m not French or anything, so I must not be saying it right lol. Anyways, this fragrance is a few things, but one thing it’s not is weak. I was shocked at how much this one was projecting all over the place when I wore it to work today. The performance is on par with the other La Belles but the main difference with FT is that it’s floral, powdery, and slightly aquatic. I was surprised to see iris in the notes, but here, it adds a gorgeous and soft powdery touch to a nicely sweet and watery scent. Oddly enough, I am getting the coconut vibe people keep talking about even though there isn’t any coconut here. I wonder if the water lily is causing that or what… either way, it’s beautifully blended and instantly boosts my mood when I smell it. It’s calming, fresh, and gentle, but still has a sensuality to it.
Not only is the juice beautiful and performs well, the bottle is absolutely stunning. I love all aspects of the bottle, from the blue color, to the floral neckpiece, and of course, the sexy and classic La Belle silhouette. I just love it and it elevates my experience when using this perfume.
This is one that’s great for the spring and summer, but I couldn’t see there being an issue if you wanted to bust this out during fall and winter days when you’ll be indoors. It’s pretty, strong, but still subtle enough to wear whenever. I’ll admit, I can understand why some people wouldn’t be keen on this. The notes are quite simple, but the scent profile itself is complex and unique. Too bad it’s been discontinued.
