I admire the way you talk about perfume. You are a real poet. Also I agree with your choice, Une Fleur de Cassie is an underrated masterpiece.
Thank you so much for your kind words.
I’m so thrilled to see you talk about L’Eau d’Hiver, it’s so so special to me and often gets overlooked! And how lovely to have discovered your channel on my hunt for Frederic Malle reviews before expanding my collection, you have such a beautiful and calming speaking voice and seem so kind and knowledgeable.
What a wonderful comment to receive, thank you. And yes, that's one of the best Malles, in my view.
Very nice review n probably the best in YT......
That’s very, very kind. Thank you 🙏

Thank you Persoilaise. This is one of my favorite perfume houses ever. Love Frederic Malles editor approach to his collection. Your videos are so fun to watch, the descriptions are soothing and dangerous to my bank account :)
Oh dear, sorry 😬 That’s the trouble with gorgeous perfumes!
Thank you so much for watching.
After thinking that I was well versed in the FM portfolio, I reached for Une Fleur De Cassie today after realizing that I had never sampled it, and I was immediately floored! It is simply a stoke of genius through and through. Retro yes, but I think only in the class and gravitas that the composition exudes. It still somehow passes a subtle and crafty wink at an undefined modernity. This, like all masterpieces, is a work that demands contemplation. I must have in my collection.
I'm so pleased you like it. It's a must-have, I'd say.
I adore Lipstick Rose especially for the memory it evokes. It reminds me of sitting on my mothers bed in the 1960's observing her whilst she was getting ready to go out. Her coiffured hair and a particular bright orange lipstick with an intense fragrance...... So interesting it evoked similar memories for you 💋🍸
Thank you so much for writing.
I’m sure our memories are related to the materials that were used to make and scent lipsticks in the past.
I'm a very recent subscriber to your channel having heard Alice du Parc and Caroline Hirons wax lyrical about you. Loving your intelligent content and have of course made a bee line for my favourite houses, Frederic Malle, Chanel and Guerlain. My absolute cannot be without perfumes from FM are L'eau D'Hiver; makes me feel quite emotional, Musc Ravageur; reminds me of smelling my cat's fur so very comforting and French Lover; still getting to know but this is proving quite addictive to me. So glad to have found you 😊
Thank you so much for this, Marie. I was aware that Alice has been supportive, but I didn’t know about Caroline, so thanks for the info. That’s very useful to know, and it means a lot to me.
L’Eau D’Hiver is exceptional.
Thanks for watching.
Interesting. My 1st was Carnal Flower. I always received many compliments. When I had En Passant, it was my choice when going to the beach and when I wanted to go to the beach. I’m in Northern California, and our beaches are near the forest, so there’s always woods and green with the oceanic scents. I was glad to have the travel trio. The other scents I liked were a tiny bit too masculine for me, but Geranium Pour Monsieur I love! My skin makes things sweeter, so the sharpness works for me. I met Frederic Malle over 15 years ago, in San Francisco and while elegant, he was very pleasant and easy to speak to.
Thank you so much for watching. I love the idea of En Passant being a beach scent.
Carnal Flower is amazing!
Is musc ravageur good to wear for casual and with jeans ?
Love lilac in fragrance and so love lilac bushes and the scent . Lilac is my favourite colour and love Lavender and violet in all forms too ‘ the scent ‘ colour and taste too . 💜
Yes, me too!
The way you are talking about Noir Epices makes me think of Serge Lutens Five O'clock Au Gingembre. I bought Five O'Clock at the gorgeous Senteurs d'Ailleurs shop in Brussels. I don't wear it personally, but I'm absolutely addicted to smelling it on my husband. I swoon every time.
Wonderful. Thanks for writing.
I may be late to your Fred Malle party (fashionably so, natch) but I’m so pleased the lovely Mdme Fleur de Cassie made it to your utterly brilliant list. My 4yr old grandson LOVES me wearing this and squeals with delight saying “Grannie has Cassie on!” In winter when I wear Iris Poudre he asks me for a little spray on his jumper! The kid has clearly got great taste AND, like your good self, a good nose!
Oh wow! What a wonderful comment to receive. He DOES have superb taste.
@@Persolaise well now how lovely of you to reply, thank you! Based on your excellent review of En Passant I pulled the trigger and as a lilac lover I bought a BIG one. So grandson and I were walking under the Linden trees in full bloom and he said it smells like your perfume. And by George he’s right, there’s a very distinctive linden flower blossom note in the dry down. I know it’s not listed in the composition but it’s absolutely a passing (the en passant) whiff of the lovely linden flowers. They’re in full bloom right now so please grab a sniff since I’d love to know if you agree with my grandboy (now renamed Little Nose) and I?
@@lilygolightly722 He may well be right -- I think there are all sorts of late spring blossoms in there.
Please can we get this young man on a fast track to perfumery school! What does he want to do when he grows up?
@@Persolaise oh my goodness wouldn’t that be his Grannie’s heaven scent wish! 😃 In fact as well as perfume and all things aroma (he kept a bottle of lavender flowers from my garden in his pocket from aged 2) he’s completely crazy mad about clocks, and has a collection of over 100 different clocks and watches which he repairs, and even succeeds in fixing every single time (that pun was unintentional by the way) so either he’ll be a clockmaker or a Nose but whatever he chooses his Grannie will be right behind him, with her large collection of Frederic Malle fragrances, to keep him going. Incidentally, I just got a 10ml of French Lover and it takes me down in the deep dark woods where the mosses are soft and cushiony and all is gorgeously green 💚
My goodness! Yes Iris Poudre and Vogue - exceptional and totally agree. Love it!
Thanks very much for watching 😊
I'm pretty tickled to see my entire collection of Malles in your top ten! The only omissions on my end are En Passant (to be remedied, still) and Dries van Noten. Of course, PoaL is present, too.
Ah, that’s great to know.
Thanks very much for watching!
I really enjoyed this, my personal favorites are musc ravageur, un fleur de cassie, and Vetiver extraordinare.
Thanks for watching.
VE is my best friend’s favourite.
I'm very intrigued to sample Iris Poudre, heard a lot of good things about it. This is the first time I watch your channel, Mr. Persolaise. Love your classy but easy-going persona, looking forward to hearing more from you, and thus I'm subscribed! :)
Very, very kind. Thank you 😊
I finally have a bottle of one of my favorite perfumes of my life so far (Musc Ravageur🥰). And thanks to the perfume sample that came with my purchase, I know which Frederic Malle perfume I'm going to buy next (Portrait of a Lady ✨🔥❤️)! Thank you so much for taking your time to share your knowledge with us! 🙏
Not at all: thank YOU for watching.
Is this house good for young men and for with jeans, especially musc ravageur
Love TANAGRA perfumery in Nice, stocked up Diptyque there and a friend I dragged there fell in love with Smoke Show by Vilhelm. Luckily, I visit Nice nearly every year on my way to our Italian Riviera summer home, as it has the most convenient airport. However, I ought to fly into Genova sometime, as there is great perfumery to be had there too!!
Tanagra is very special. Thanks for watching.
L'Eau D'Hiver smells like happiness to me, such a comfy welcoming scent
Yes, extremely comforting.
Thanks for watching.
I am so glad you talk about l eau d'hiver.No one speaks about it 😢
It's a masterpiece.
I love the waxy, sweet smell of a good Chanel lipstick, which are rose scented. Other “lipstick” fragrances have missed the mark IMO. I must order a sample of lipstick rose and see if it’s a winner.
Many thanks for watching. If you do get a sample, please let me know what you think of it.
I buy the discovery set because I was so sure to buy Canal Flower and th Lady but I fall in love with En Passant Is a Beautiful Lady happy with life in a bright Sunday
Thanks for watching.
My favorite: Synthetic Jungle, French Lover, Eau De Magnolia, Bigarade Concentree, En Passant. These perfumes are outstanding to me and very unique
Let me say this: I’m Arabian but honestly the oriental perfumes didn’t impress me at all.
Thanks very much for watching.
I absolutely love Bigarade Concentrée maybe the best orange note of any perfume .. performance is very subpar though :(
I adore the cologne version: I agree, one of the best citrus notes ever!
Many thanks for watching.
Im surprised promise is not on the list...absolute outstanding fragrance and so unique...performs amazingly well too...
Thanks very much indeed for watching. There's a review of Promise over on Persolaise.com.
Is musc ravageur good to wear for casual with jeans and hoodies ?
The muse for Carnal flower was Malle’s Aunt Candice Bergen who I absolutely adore and a reference to her film Carnal Knowledge’ however I can’t imagine her wearing this but as she’s extremely funny as well as beautiful and a big personality’ maybe it does suit her .
I know! Imagine having Murphy Brown as your aunt!
@@Persolaise quite jealous x
I remember when she modeled a perfume called “Cie.”
Is this house good for young men and for with jeans, especially musc ravageur
I’m a woman and my number 1 is Portrait of a Lady, which I tend to wear as my signature scent. However, I can’t wear it to work because it’s too pungent for my Co-workers.
Well, all I can say is: their loss!
Thanks for watching 😊
Same! I wore it to work and never wore it again but I ended up getting my coworker hooked on it.
Loved this review my fave from the brand is musc ravageur I also own fleur de Cassie & carnal flower i wanted so much to like tuberose but sadly it doesn't like me so i sold carnal flower the only others that pique my interest are lipstick rose & Dries van noten I can't stand portrait of a lady
Musc is wonderful. And I love Dries.
Thanks for watching.
Is musc ravageur good to wear for casual with jeans and hoodies ?
Yes.
Love my Lipstick Rose ! Always feel pretty and girly wearing it . It’s beautiful 💄🌹x
😊 👍
New sub and keep up the amazing work.
Much appreciated, thank you.
Enjoy the videos!
I blind-bought a 10ml Lipstick Rose a few months back-it’s totally brilliant. Have yet to try any others from the line save for POAL. I also tried Chanel Misia which is quite beautiful, but I’m not quite as smitten as I am with Lipstick Rose 🌹 maybe Misia is a bit too elegant for me? 😹
Many thanks for watching, Sharon. Well, I’m not sure what it says about us, but I was also less smitten with Misia than with Lipstick Rose. I think there’s a ‘density’ to Misia that makes it a bit standoffish, somehow. I love the cleverness of LR: the fact that it doesn’t feel the need to try too hard.
Just tried the rest of my sample box and love French Lover ‘ Monsieur ‘ enpassant and am completely enslaved by Musc ravageur . The others I really like but struggle with carnal flower as not the biggest tuberose fan . Still adore POAL and Lipstick Rose remains my favourite. Going to try Dres van noten and Cassie flower next .
I love DVN... as you know!
One of my fav niche perfume houses!! My favs are Noir Epices & Dries Van Noten. ❤️
Those two are amazing. And yes, the Malle brand is superb, although I guess it no longer qualifies as ‘niche’ now that it’s owned by Lauder and has quite wide distribution.
Thank you for watching.
@@Persolaise good old Estee Lauder cut out 2 frags.Dries van noten being one of them.I purchased 2 back ups which isn't cheap but I love it so much.
Oh no! Is that right?
@@Persolaise sadly yes...Fredric Malle first announced it on their Facebook page couple months ago.DVN and Superstition were discontinued.If you want backup I'd look now before the prices are hiked up ridiculously..Love you're Chanel by the way!😊
@@Mia-es1rp Thanks very much indeed.
Mr. P - Sujata here. I'm distraught today so I decided to ask you - as I've come to truly trust your honesty and sincerity - and your knowledge and expertise about perfumes. I've begun a slow foray into the iconic House of Malle - and very recently sent away for samples of the perfumes that most intrigue me - especially POAL. BUT. I only today watched a RUclips video where the reviewer argues that since the 2015 Estée Lauder takeover of Frederic Malle's creations - fragrances like Noir Epices (one of the ones that I'm intrigued by) have been reformulated - so we should look for the vintage versions if we really want the real deal. Is this true??? Because if it is - yikes - and ugh. It makes the whole journey that much more difficult and way more expensive than it already is!
I know that a lot has been said about post-Lauder-purchase reformulations, but I personally don’t know for a fact whether all of that is true. I’d say the best thing would be to get samples of the scents and just see if you enjoy them.
@@Persolaise - that's exactly what I've done, Mr. P. Thank you. I truly appreciate you taking the time to respond to and help out a novice like me! You are a true gentleman!
You are fabulous!
Woah - thank you.
Hah! I was so sure that Geranium Pour Monsieur was going to be the final perfume but it’s not on your list! I think you are a fan? But it’s fun to be surprised!
I absolutely love it, but I just had to make a choice. On another day, it might have made it in 😊
Thanks very much for watching.
Subscribed! Good content.
Very kind, thank you.
Great great vid
Thank you.
Musc Ravageur in Le Male's body is exactly how I would imagine it! This would be the smell of messy jersey sheets, in an otherwise clean and dark, monochromatic, bedroom.
It’s interesting to try to imagine it in a different bottle.
Thanks for watching.
Ooh Cassie flowers sound lovely 😊
It’s very, very special.
Nice to see UFDC included in the list.
It absolutely HAD to be included! Thanks for watching 😊
Aww just missed this:/. Gonna watch again later as I love co-sniffing with your reviews. My favourite Malle-s are Therese, IP, Portrait and Carnal Flower... LR's waxy sidenotes are also delightful. What a grand house, these scents all just seem to make you wanna write haikus about them, right:)? Thanks, great video again! I find such comfort in your reviews, esp. nowadays.
That’s really very kind, thank you. I’m glad the videos can be helpful in some way. And I love Therese too 😊
Nice review ❤...I wonder how similar is lipstick rose to lipstick on by maison margiela and is it worth having both?
Thanks very much for watching. I think the Malle is a more interesting piece of work.
Revisiting one of your older but important videos in the universe, I have been meaning to ask you if you are at all familiar w/ YSL's Champagne, old name, now called Yvresse (drunkenness)? It came out in the 90's and I can't understand why it was so underrepresented b/c it reminds me SO much of Malle's Lipstick Rose, bubbly, creamy, elegant, and oh so chic! YSL got into legal hot water w/ the Champagne gods of trademark infringement hence the name change 🤔 . In fact b/c it's difficult to find these days, my backup is Lipstick Rose. Thoughts? 🙏
I remember the launch of Champagne very well indeed (in fact, I'm pretty sure my mum has an old bottle with the original Champagne name!) but I can't recall the smell. I seem to think it was based on mimosa.
Thanks for watching.
How old are your bottles ? Apparently a lot of the scents were changed with reformulations, especially Musc Ravageur and Noir Epices.
Nearly all my bottles are from pre-Lauder days, except of course in the case of scents released after the acquisition. I’m feeling increasingly nervous about smelling the current versions.
@@Persolaise Ah! It would be interesting to hear your opinions on the new formulations. Musc Ravageur is apparently a lot more gourmand now and less animalic. I've seen people say Noir Epices is almost a completely different fragrance now. I've never compared them myself as I only had access to the recent stuff. I still adore both.
At first, the name alone scared me off of Musclewoman Ravageur, because I am not much of a musk person, but I was pleasantly surprised to love it to death. I tend to love ambers, and this definitely feels ambery to me.
Yes, it is a classic amber in many ways. An update of Shalimar.
Thanks for watching.
@@Persolaise I am really liking your channel. I love how you interact with people, and it is amazing how you describe scent.
Thank you 😊
Is musc ravageur good to wear for casual with jeans and hoodies ?
Is this house good for young men and to wear casual with jeans, especially musc ravageur ?
That's entirely up to you :-)
Thanks for watching.
@@Persolaise if I put musc ravageur i will not smell like old or mature men ?
Thanks for the review! I love Carnal Flower, but it disappears quickly from my skin- is it just me, or has longevity been affected due to reformulation?
I honestly don’t know. I suppose there’s a chance it’s been reformulated.
Thanks for watching.
And a question re: the video above - you would then rate Lipstick Rose above Une Rose?
Hmmm… that would depend on what effect I’m trying to create. They’re both superb.
only tried (full wearings) two malles : poal and carnal flower and didnt like either. though to be fair i sniffed one from the bottle in a store and really liked it, but forgot the name ,was one of the arab themed ones
Ah, you should go back and find out which one it was.
Thanks for watching.
I thought Promise would have been in there! Its the most strongest/longevity fragrance that ive ever had, smells great too, have you got a review of Promise on your channel? I cant find it. Thankyou
Thanks for watching. I reviewed Promise over on Persolaise.com
Persolaise Perfumes ok thankyou
I cant too accept this promise I buy another 3ml sample is hard to like hmm need to wear more
Listening to you is the adult version of storytelling time at night when I was a kid. Thank you! I’m sure everybody has saw this video but for the few that haven’t, it’s a treat: ruclips.net/video/XwtCbVhhGfg/видео.htmlsi=dipRzhSQgw1lW31l
Thank you very much. And thanks for the link. It's great to be reminded of that video.
The former name of Fils de Dieu was either Filipino House Boy or Filipino Pool Boy. viz an Elton John or Liberace-type campy old queen lounging on a deck chair with a cocktail by the pool at a mansion, with a nubile , slim, hairless servant-boy on hand whose 'uniform' is just a g-string, and fanning his master with a palm tree frond.
Yup!
Thanks for watching.
My number one for this house keeps changing somehow. How can I not me tion Carnal Flower, POAL (& the Night!), Musc Ravageur, or (even) the modern Rose & Cuir-and, in fact, the list goes on. But let’s do that: I’ll take Une de Fleur Cassie by day, and Une Rose by night (:
It is quite difficult with Malle 😉
Many thanks for watching.
Is this house good for young men and for with jeans, especially musc ravageur
Oh I’ve missed you.
Thanks for watching.
You prefer Iris Poudre over Lipstick Rose?
If I had to pick one, then yes. But I love them both.
Musc Ravagueur was my love a first sniff, and the Magnolia was interesting but when I have 10 more year, the Lady I think a lot a perfums that I use or small in others and carnal small like the flower markers in my country México I didn't like it small like millions of flower I didn't wanted to smell like a flower market and
Thanks for watching.
I have to admit, Musc Ravageur smells straight up disgusting to me, i cannot stand it😂, but i love the floral side of FM, Iris Poudre, Lys Mediteranee, Eau de Magnolia, Carnal Flower...big loves...
Interesting. Some people can’t take it, and some find it soft and cuddly.
persolaise dressed like it's his mendhi function tonight
Only the best for my audience 😉
Thank you so much for watching.
Any plans to do more of these?
I absolutely want to -- it's a question of finding the time :-(
Any brand suggestions?
@@Persolaise mona di Orio, Rosendo mateu, floris, Profumum Roma, bois 1920, Carner Barcelona.
The carner and mona "cuir" fragrances are miniature haves if you like leather scents
Thank you.
are the flowers beside you plastic?
Those ones are artificial, yes.
Had no idea Lauder now owns FM, yikes!! Not a fan of their politics at all......Darn, now have to prioritise between my love of perfume and/or right and wrong in the world.😩.
Maybe you can tell yourself that they allow their subsidiary brands a great deal of independence...?
❤️
Thanks for watching.
46:30..yes but Luca Turin is just a joke who wants to get attention from his strong opinions. Don't take him seriously!
I always appreciate reading his views. But I don’t take them as gospel.
Thanks for watching.
I watched the entire video on the toilet. It was so compelling I forgot to poop! (Sorry, everyone. TMI Sunday).
I literally have no clue how to reply.
Thanks for watching... sorry I messed up your digestive system.
@@Persolaise Hahahaha. It was worth it. And you'll be very gratified to learn I managed to void my bowels quite satisfactorily thereafter. Perfumes and a good evacuation! Such are the balms of life! Yay!
