Mauboussin Mauboussin à la Folie is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Benoist Lapouza and Delphine Lebeau. Mauboussin à la Folie opens with Champagne Rosé, settles into a heart of Rose and Raspberry, and dries down to a base of Caramel. Mauboussin's Mauboussin à la Folie carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This raspberry-champagne gourmand is famously divisive; it's either a fizzy, delightful, sweet dream or a syrupy, synthetic nightmare. Love it or hate it, you can't deny its playful, unapologetic sweetness. Blind buy with caution, but if it hits right, expect compliments.

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.

Date Casual

Its sweet, inviting nature makes it an excellent choice for casual outings and dates, receiving many compliments from reviewers. However, its moderate sillage and strong sweetness might be too much for formal events or a professional office setting.

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

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

Mauboussin à la Folie pops with a bright, aldehydic champagne rosé opening, immediately followed by juicy, sweet raspberry. The heart brings a subtle, jammy rose, softened and rounded by a rich caramel base. It leans gourmand, with a warm, comforting dry down that retains a hint of sparkling fruitiness.
