Agent Provocateur Maitresse is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Christian Provenzano. Maitresse opens with Ylang-Ylang and Lotus, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Iris, Violet Leaf, and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Suede, Musk, Amber, and Cedar. Agent Provocateur's Maitresse carries a Favourite verdict, a musky-led wear.

Divisive yet intriguing, Maitresse is a complex beast. Some find it a tame, soapy floral; others, a vintage-tinged, subtly seductive musk. It's a gold-dusted boudoir scent that plays the long game, hinting at intrigue rather than screaming for attention.

About

Opening with a flourish of creamy ylang-ylang and delicate lotus, Maitresse quickly settles into a sophisticated floral heart of iris and violet leaf, complemented by the apricot-like sweetness of osmanthus. As it dries, a soft, powdery musk emerges, underpinned by a smooth, almost fluffy suede and a whisper of warm amber and cedar, creating a neo-vintage allure.
