Fleur Diamantine
by Maison Crivelli
A bright, green-tinged white floral with jasmine at its core, Fleur Diamantine balances freshness and aromatic subtlety. The opening is radiant and floral, dominated by jasmine and neroli, with a subtle crispness from mint and oakmoss that keeps the scent from becoming cloying. As it develops, the fragrance reveals a soft, earthy depth from oakmoss and coumarin, giving it a grounded, slightly aromatic character. The overall impression is clean, delicate, and botanical—like walking through a sunlit garden with dew on the flowers. The sillage remains moderate and intimate, with moderate longevity that often lingers close to the skin for around seven hours. While the notes are consistent across reviews, individual reactions vary: some find it a breath of fresh air, others perceive an indolic or soapy quality on their skin, especially in the dry down. It reads as unisex in tone but is universally perceived as feminine by most wearers.
Pros
- +The fragrance is exceptionally fresh and realistic, resembling a garden in bloom—ideal for spring and summer wear.
- +It strikes a careful balance between floral richness and aromatic greenery, avoiding heaviness or sweetness.
- +The jet of brightness from the outset is well-handled, making it comfortable for daytime wear in warmer months.
Cons
- −Longevity is modest, with most users reporting only moderate duration, especially on skin.
- −Some find the jasmine to turn indolic or soapy on their skin, which can be off-putting.
- −The mint and saffron notes are faint yet divisive—certainly not muted, but not always detectable, which polarizes opinion.
