A true icon of perfumery heritage,Quelques Fleurs l'Original by Houbigantstands as a timeless tribute to feminine elegance, blending rich history with an enduringly romantic scent profile. First crafted to capture the lushness of a blooming garden, this fragrance redefines classic floral sophistication, making it a beloved choice for women who embrace grace and nostalgia.
At its heart, a opulent bouquet takes center stage: velvety rose petals unfold alongside creamy jasmine, softened by the delicate sweetness of lily of the valley—notes that evoke the freshness of morning dew on a flower bed. These florals are grounded by a warm, reassuring base of subtle sandalwood and a hint of soft musk, adding depth without overshadowing the fragrance’s floral core. The top notes, light and luminous, feature a touch of citrus brightness that gently eases into the richer middle and base, creating a seamless, well-balanced journey.

More than just a perfume, Quelques Fleurs l'Original carries the legacy of Houbigant—a house with centuries of perfumery expertise. Its composition avoids overly modern or fleeting trends, instead leaning into the timeless appeal of a "signature floral" scent: it feels both familiar and luxurious, suitable for daytime elegance (a brunch, a workday where you want to feel polished) and evening refinement (a dinner date, a special occasion). The longevity is moderate, leaving a soft, memorable sillage that feels intimate rather than overwhelming—perfect for women who want their fragrance to complement, not command, their presence.
For anyone who appreciates perfumes with stories, or who seeks a floral scent that feels both classic and deeply personal, Quelques Fleurs l'Original is a masterpiece. It’s a reminder that some fragrances don’t just smell beautiful—they become part of your identity, carrying the charm of a bygone era into the present.
