Really sharp and masculine, maybe bitter might be the word I’m looking for? Tried the exclusif as well and it was just the same! I don’t know how it’s compared to fleur Narcotique or levant, it smells nothing like them to me!
Fleur Narcotique is the same as Valaya. On the initial spray Fleur is more floral but then it starts drying down to Valaya ( peachy, floral on me). The Fleur Narcotique may be different on you as its a different brand/formulation .

It's one of my favourite scents...I was complemented on wearing it when out for birthday meal at Murano in London!
I bought it 'blind' from Liberty as had credit to use!....I also rate Fleur de peau from Diptyque as well
i have tried a couple of Diptyque perfumes and have mixed feelings. I have tried the Fleur De Peau twice - the first time i tried it i loved it (sample ) . I used the 1st sample up and then a few months later I bought another bottle of perfume . As part of the purchase i could choose a free sample so went for Fleur De Peau again.. second time around - it was hideous. It was very grannyish on me.

I have since discovered that the EDT/EDP do smell differently and i wondered if this was the reason I didn't like it the 2nd time around. The problem, is I dont know if i preferred the EDT or EDP version. I have also tried Orpheon which i didnt hate but just wasnt for me. This started out as very posh hotel soap smell then dried down into a pencil shavings smell.
 
I really feel like I need to limit my collection eventually. I tried to stop buying so much for a few months but it gets addictive 🤪 no sooner am i eyeing up something else once I make a purchase 😅

I think if I had to sell or give away some, these 👇are what I'd be happy to be left with (excuse my crappy phone camera)

Just purchased Carolina Herrera Good Girl Jasmine Absolute with 20% off after sampling it in Boots and falling in love. Not a fan of the others in the range, but this is right up my street - creamy, sweet gourmand goodness. Longevity is fantastic too. Also received a sample of Miss Dior Essence, but haven’t tried it yet.

SOTD victoria beckham Portifino.
Interesting, and quite nice but not loving it enough to want to spend money on it.
Got it as a free sample with a VB eyeshadow i bought.

Really really want to try mochi musc from mancera 😱 but can't justify spending £80+ on a blind buy
Can you buy it as a sample ? There are a few places you could .





I have used all these and can vouch that they send genuine samples
