Houbigant Quelques Fleures L'Original 100ml EDP Spray
Quelques Fleurs L'Original, launched in 1913 by Houbigant, is a historic beacon in perfumery. The nose behind this enduring fragrance is Robert Bienaime, whose artistry crafted a pristine floral bouquet that unfolds with luminous citrus, a lush central garden of white and pink blossoms, and a warm, resinous base. This 100ml EDP Spray captures a timeless elegance—sophisticated enough for formal events, yet inviting for everyday refined wear.
Top notes spark the senses with orange blossom, green notes, tarragon, bergamot, lemon and other citruses, delivering a bright, airy opening that feels both fresh and romantic.
Heart (middle) notes blossom into a rich floral chorus: carnation, tuberose, orchid, lilac, orris root, jasmine, heliotrope, ylang-ylang, lily-of-the-valley, rose, violet, and iris. This opulent bouquet brings a powdery, luminous center with a timeless feminine allure.
Base notes ground the scent with sandalwood, tonka bean, amber, musk, civet, oakmoss, honey and vanilla. The result is a creamy, resinous finish that adds warmth, depth, and lasting presence on the skin.
