Dries Van Noten Fleur du Mal is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Quentin Bisch. Fleur du Mal opens with Peach, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Suede and Amber. Dries Van Noten's Fleur du Mal carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This peach and suede concoction by Quentin Bisch is a proper divisive one. For some, it's a classy, sensual work of art, a "clean girl gone dirty" with a unique fuzzy peach and luxurious leather. For others, it's a musty, waxy disaster, smelling of old shoe stores or even horse stables.

About

Fleur du Mal opens with a surprisingly realistic, juicy peach, balanced by the delicate, apricot-tinged warmth of osmanthus. This fruity-floral heart is swiftly grounded by a sophisticated, creamy suede that provides an unexpected depth. Hints of sensual jasmine weave through, all resting on a soft amber base that gives it a luxurious, skin-like quality.
