Maître Parfumeur et Gantier Secrete Datura is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1992. Secrete Datura opens with Lemon, Lily of the Valley, and Heliotrope, settles into a heart of Datura, Orange Blossom, Jasmine, and Honeysuckle, and dries down to a base of Mexican Chocolate, Sandalwood, Iris, and Vanilla. Maître Parfumeur et Gantier's Secrete Datura carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This isn't just another floral, it's a 'masterpiece' that captivates and divides. While some find it a unique, 'enchanting brew', others are put off by a 'soapy' or 'toilet-like' opening. It's a heady, complex white floral that makes an unforgettable statement.

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.

Best Seasons

Best For:

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its long-lasting performance and strong, opulent floral character make it less suitable for a typical office environment. However, its 'seductive' and 'intoxicating' nature, as described by reviewers, makes it perfect for dates and formal events. The 'year-round' and 'day' wear suggestions from the community allow for some casual use, though it leans dressy.

About

Secrete Datura opens with a bright, almost tingling burst of lemon and lily of the valley, quickly giving way to the intoxicating and creamy white floral heart of datura, jasmine, orange blossom, and honeysuckle, softened by heliotrope's powdery touch. The dry down introduces a subtle, powdery Mexican chocolate and vanilla, nestled against warm sandalwood and earthy iris, creating a rich, opulent, and slightly mysterious bouquet.
