L'Artisan Parfumeur La Chasse aux Papillons is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1999, created by Anne Flipo. La Chasse aux Papillons settles into a heart of Linden Tree, Orange Blossom, Jasmine, and Tuberose. L'Artisan Parfumeur's La Chasse aux Papillons carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

A divisive floral that's either a fleeting, ethereal dream of spring or a scrubber. Those who love it adore its natural white florals, but many find it too weak, too simple, or just a bit... off.

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.

This is a versatile scent for casual and daytime wear, often praised for being 'office friendly' due to its light projection. Its ephemeral nature means it won't overpower, making it less suitable for formal events where a more substantial presence is often desired, though some find it 'wedding scent' appropriate. It's often described as a 'skin scent' that's enjoyable for the wearer, ideal for relaxed settings.

About

La Chasse aux Papillons is a delicate, airy white floral, opening with a bright, almost peppery linden blossom that quickly eases into a creamy blend of tuberose and jasmine. Orange blossom weaves through, adding a touch of sweetness and often a clean, soapy facet, evoking a picturesque spring garden.
