Bon Parfumeur 802 pivoine, lotus, bambou is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Karine Dubreuil-Sereni. 802 pivoine, lotus, bambou opens with Violet, Osmanthus, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Rose, Peony, Freesia, and Lotus, and dries down to a base of Musk. Bon Parfumeur's 802 pivoine, lotus, bambou carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

A truly divisive aquatic floral that some find a 'perfection in a bottle,' while others struggle with its 'weird' drydown and 'synthetic' blast. Approach with caution, as it definitely has its love-it-or-hate-it moments.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its fresh, clean aquatic floral nature makes it perfect for casual daytime wear or even light activity, as many reviewers highlight its 'easy' and 'light' character. However, some find it a touch too 'room scent' or 'linen spray' which, combined with potential skin reactions, lowers its suitability for formal settings or intimate dates.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with an immediate burst of dewy flowers- think fresh peony and succulent lotus, brightened by a hint of fruity blackcurrant and the subtle greenness of violet. This aquatic heart then settles into a clean, soft musk base, evoking the serene calm of a still pond rather than the crashing ocean. Expect a natural, light and airy floral journey.
