by Vilhelm Parfumerie
Fleur Burlesque by Vilhelm Parfumerie is a bold, creamy white floral with a warm, musky-sandalwood backbone and a soft amber base. It opens with lush gardenia and jasmine in a plush, lactonic, slightly sweet form—nothing indolic or green, but rather a smooth, well-blended floral that feels both elegant and sensual. The sandalwood and amber provide depth, offering a dry, resinous warmth that not only grounds the scent but also adds a touch of vintage allure. On some skin, it's radiant and lush; on others, it leans more toward the dense, sweet, and big-scented version of white florals—projects with intense sillage and holds strong for hours, making it much more a presence than a subtle accent. The scent is especially suited to evening wear, mature feminine confidence, and warm seasons, though it can be enjoyed year-round by those who love a powerful, feminine floral with personality.
