French Lover

French Lover by Frédéric Malle

Concentration: Eau de Parfum

Fragrance Profile:
French Lover is an earthy, green, and woody fragrance that blends refinement with quiet strength. It opens with a burst of galbanum, pimiento, and angelica, creating a sharp and aromatic freshness. The heart introduces subtle floral and spicy tones over a woody base of vetiver, cedar, and incense, forming a dry, elegant composition that feels natural and confident.

Performance:
Long-lasting with moderate to strong projection that softens beautifully over time. It develops into a dry, woody aura that remains present for 8–10 hours.

Ideal For:
Perfect for men and women who appreciate understated sophistication. Best suited for daytime wear in spring or fall, or for those seeking a green, elegant, and quietly powerful signature scent.
