Matiere Premiere French Flower EDP

Description

French Flower is Matière Première's love letter to tuberose in full, unapologetic bloom, built around organic Tuberose Absolute and Enfleurage from Grasse. Fans of heavyweight tuberoses like Robert Piguet's Fracas often single this one out too, but French Flower is greener and brighter, cut with Nigerian ginger, green pear, and Chinese tea leaf instead of Fracas's creamy tropical sweetness.

Scent Character

• Floral: 33%
• Fresh: 17%
• Spicy: 17%
• Sweet: 17%
• Woody: 17%

Translation: tuberose leads a floral-forward blend, with fresh, spicy, sweet, and woody notes all playing near-equal supporting roles rather than any one dominating.

FAQ

Is French Flower for men or women?
Unisex. Like the rest of the Matière Première line, it's built around the ingredient, not a gender.

What's the longevity like?
Strong. Most wearers get 7–9 hours.

How does it compare to Fracas?
Both are big tuberose statements, but French Flower is greener and more citrus-bright thanks to pear and ginger, where Fracas leans creamy and tropical.

How does it project?
Moderately: present up close, without being a room-filler.
