Fleur de Maté

by Olivier Cresp

Versace Fleur de Maté is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Olivier Cresp. Fleur de Maté settles into a heart of Frankincense, Cedar, Mate, and Cistus Incanus. Versace's Fleur de Maté carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a bit of a mixed bag; Fleur de Maté promises mate but delivers heaps of dark, earthy patchouli, with some finding it a sophisticated older vibe and others questioning its value for money. It's a divisive scent that won't please everyone.

About

Fleur de Maté opens with a deep, almost chocolatey patchouli, quickly joined by woody elements and a subtle, warm amber. Hints of herbaceous mate and balsamic frankincense weave through the heart, creating a somewhat ethereal yet grounded aroma. The dry-down retains an earthy woodiness, sometimes sweetened with a honey-like nuance, carrying a delicate, almost musky finish that often leaves a lingering trail.
