Frais et Frais Veloutée is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026. Veloutée opens with Anise and Saffron, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Caramel, and dries down to a base of Amber and Oakmoss. Frais et Frais's Veloutée carries a Statement verdict, an amber-led wear.

Veloutée is a divisive beast: some find its unique sweetness enchanting, while others are put off by the anise heavy opening. If you're after something a bit different and don't mind a challenge, give it a go.

About

Veloutée opens with an assertive, almost liquorice-like hit of anise, softened by the rich spice of saffron. The heart unfolds into a sticky-sweet caramel embrace, underpinned by a creamy jasmine. As it dries down, a warm amber glow emerges, grounding the sweetness with an earthy, slightly green whisper of oakmoss, adding a touch of classic complexity.
