French Lover

by Frederic Malle

4.1|2007|Male

French Lover by Frederic Malle, launched in 2007, is an assertively masculine fragrance. It opens with a vibrant, spicy freshness, featuring notes of pink pepper and other piquant spices, complemented by the green, aromatic facets of angelica and violet leaf. This initial spark transitions into a sophisticated heart where galbanum and incense lend a smoky, resinous depth, entwined with earthy vetiver and robust cedar. The composition settles into a powerful, woody-mossy base, enhanced by oakmoss, a hint of orris, and a subtle white musk, creating a scent that is both refined and compelling. It evokes a distinguished yet alluring presence.
