Miller Harris Fleur Oriental is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2000, created by Lyn Harris. Fleur Oriental settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Jasmine, and Heliotrope, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Miller Harris's Fleur Oriental carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one is a classic for a reason. Often compared to 'Shalimar-lite', Fleur Oriental delivers a sublime, cosy warmth that’s both opulent and comforting. A powdery, vanilla-drenched dream for those who crave a touch of vintage elegance without the fuss.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

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

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Imagine a plush, velvet room, dusted with fine powder. You're wrapped in an embrace of creamy vanilla, its sweetness tempered by the soft, almost almond-like heliotrope. Then, the warm spice of carnation and amber emerges, intertwined with the delicate whispers of orange blossom and jasmine. Finally, a clean, gentle musk settles, leaving a scent that's both rich and feather-light.
