Beachy white blossoms smothered in cocoa butter and crystallized in sugar. A floral first, gourmand second. Big win for neroli and sambac stans. The notes had me hoping for a Middle Eastern pastry with the cardamom and rosewater, which I feel are usually pretty demonstrative notes, but they didn’t show until an hour in and lent more of a cosmetic-toned spice than the suggestion of anything edible. The heart of Fleur Éclair is far more cocoa butter than powder – smooth, creamy, and very white chocolatey.
I thought I’d be simping hard for Fleur Éclair, as Nitesurf Neroli converted me into an orange blossom enthusiast and Glass Blooms got me silly for femme florals, but this doesn’t quite click with my nose the same way. Still a silky, decadent floral with solid lasting power (at least 6h for me) and a beautiful evolution on skin. In case others are looking for a true dessert, it shares a lot of character with Liis’s Choux Choux, which I prefer.
Mental Snapshot: Nibbling on a fresh flower, plucked straight off a wedding cake. (They won’t notice). It’s a beach wedding, at a bougie resort chain in the Caribbean. (You’re just a plus one). You’re not sure if the flower is edible or not, but it looks pretty enough to eat. (It tastes like the body butter and massage oil from your spa treatment earlier that day). (Don't eat body butter or massage oil).
tl;dr: sugar-encrusted blossoms
