I just got my first bottle, it is very flowery and close to the skin, I can smell it on me all day! But no one has noticed it on me yet. I haven't tried the other AP fragrances but I will! Maitresse is sexy to me because the florals really wrap around me and caress my skin! I like it more and more and notice I have been reaching for it everyday since I got it! Just wish someone else would notice it, I guess they will have to get closer to me. Ha ha ha

I had a bottle of AP Maitresse. At first time, I loved (spice and floral mix), but later the aldehydes notes came stonger.

Totally agree with Mellyhelly on the asian lady image this scent evokes. A gueisha in a long ritual of grooming herself to the perfect definition of a woman made solely to please a man.. the costumer. Gueishas are highly regarded professionals and all their gestures are studied to present an image of feminine demure. This scent would be the last step of the ritual, the finishing touch to her grooming. Not overtly sexy but coy... in a manner than can be deceptively simple... slowly envolving those close in a scented web. The flower notes attest the simple floral scent turned into an aphrodisiac by the suede, amber and patchouli notes.

I'm still not sure if I like it or not... but it has great quality and sylage and lasts long on my skin.

If AP was a loud Western sophisticated aggressive sexy lady (to say so...) Maitresse is more of a gentle exotical sexy lady in a Asian tea house!
This scent is totally opposite of AP, yet they share a quality of sexual imagery... Is it just a matter of bottle and ads? What do they put in these scents? They conjure up visions of different atmoshere.
Maitresse smells white floral, fresh and crisp for the first 5 minutes. Aldehydes are tamed and soft, thanks God! Lotus flower is very prominent and so lovely! I see a small lolus pond outside the tea house...
Apart from that this is not such an original fragrance. It's well made for sure. I smell a little spice and a vague musky drydown.
It seems to me like an upscaled version of Revlon Xi Xiang!
All in all nice scent to wear. I still need to understand if it's a real man-magnet :-)

I was in love with this perfume. Now that it has finished i‘m taking myself two years back when i tried it for the first time. I was so pleased with my purchase and i had got many compliments too (way to many!!! Lol).

First of all i was, and still am, crazy with aldehydes. Mixed with rose and jasmine it was extremely pleasant to my nose. The top notes were lovely (the ylang flower got me crazy from the first sniff) and the dry down... I was so happy that there was no sandalwood used in it!

Long lasting, I was feeling very confident, very passionate, it gave me sex-appeal, and generally it works very well when you want to have a date with the man you like!!! Now that I met him, I feel gratitude towards the perfume but I have to stop using it because it still attracts people and I don’t want to break up with him!!!

So I salute Maitresse and I hope this fragrance works for you too ladies as it worked for me!!!

Literally…

I tried this one a few days ago and well I think that the bottle is lovley. The scent however is sure nice,soft floral and delicate but it dosen't seem to last long at all =/. Besides I have kind of out grown the whole soft-floral-delicate scented fragrance period of my life.

sexy ,seductive bottle,but nice and inoccent smell for me.

I love the original AP and AP Strip, so I was dying to try this on - I really wanted to like it. Well, was I ever disappointed! It was like spraying insect repellent on my wrist. Sour,bitter and rancid. Fortunately it faded away after an hour, but I still cannot get my head around the HUGE difference in the way I react to this one compared to the sister scents. It's kind of fascinating how so many people find this perfume sexy:) Must be my body chemistry ...

Plain and sweet floral. It´s nice but not inovative (like I had smelled that before). It´s not sexy: to me it´s a romantic smell, almost innocent, good for a first date.

Initially attracted to the sexy bottle, my expectations for this fragrance were extremely high. I am a lover of white florals yet a hater of aldehydes, so I knew that my opinions regarding this fragrance would be mixed.

Maitresse begins with a soft and powdery white floral. At this point I was glad that the aldehydes were not too prominent yet disappointed that the fragrance didn't have enough power. Unfortunately this perfume didn't have the strength of Agent Provocateur, to me it was a subtle, musky and soapy scent.

For some people this fragrance may be sexy, but for me, my definition of sexy is very different. If I had to describe Maitresse, I would say it is more romantic. Because it is so light, this fragrance would make a perfect daytime or office scent.

It is a unique scent in the sense that it is sensual and politically correct at the same time. I can imagine it to be relevant both on a sexy beauty on her date and on a librarian at work. This floral aldehydes sound pleasantly old-fashioned but not dated. I am very happy to finally have found the bottle lost in my old handbag. Despite the general image of the perfume reflected on the posters, etc., I feel as a true lady while being wrapped in it.

I agree with most reviewers here, this is what sexy smells like! It is soft and musky, I get a powdery flowery, not baby powder but soft with some musky undertones intertwining. I imagine a woman getting ready for her lover wearing this, pulling on her stockings while snapping the garter onto her corset. Very sexy, very appealing, feminine and different.

I have had this perfume on for 6 hours and I can still smell the powdery iris and musk scent, it is subtle but still feminine and distinct. I love this!!

Very well - worked blend, discreet but sensual.
A sensual, sexy fragrance in line with the Agent Provocateur image. Maitresse is definitely not a sugary sexbomb type of perfume at this point, though it does send the subtle message that there's more to come what it seems to be at first. Most and foremost it is a blend of sensual white flowers. The heart notes are very sexy and powerful on the senses, a real head-turner, and at the same time soft and creamy, delicately mellow and velvety smooth, it practically melts onto the skin! It conjures up images of fluffy white cashmere that caresses a woman's body. Feminine and light, yet powerful floral mixed with the sexiness of delicately 'animalistic' musk.

I can start smelling the base notes after 3 - 4 hours and this is where the composition shifts to a type of aldehyde reminiscent of Chanel 5. I am not too keen on synthetic ingredients as my nose tends to pick them up as artificial and empty, and I normally stay clear of aldehydic perfumes. However Maitress stays mainly floral with a slightly spicy edge that makes the scent a tad naughtier, in a good sense! It's now richer and has a warm, sultry edge. After 6 hours the dry down turns into an ever so light soapy and floral finish, with musk and amber continuing to set the bedroom scene... it's definitely suited for love and more... I leave it to your imagination!
Maitresse has exceeded all my expectations I had towards the look and feel of the bottle and the name. In fact the blend isn't groundbreaking - in a way it is a very well-worked modern interpretation of the classic floral aldehydes spiced with that 'je ne sais pas quoi' - which is in fact a new or reworked aldehydic chemical patented and developed by Agent Provocateur - that makes Maitresse a definite olfactory pleasure.

I think maitresse is much sexier and the scent is nicer too on this perfume so thats what i thnk anyway , prefer the bottle too on this it looks much more to the name agent provocateur

arianperfume

Wow, wow and wow!!!! I cannot believe how good this smells on skin. Lushious creamy flowers. To me is a very comforting smell, this is a scent for a real woman, a wife that acts like a maitresse in her bedroom with her husband:)Try it on the skin, the cartoon does not make it justice.
I love it.

I bought a sample of this, so I have yet to smell it on any female. So until then, it smells somewhat generic

Eregeneia Health & Beauty

This is such a seductive fragrance for a passionate encounter, best for first dates. A favorite for many people!!

Trvevil

This fragrance is sexy, interesting and intriguing. First two hours it smelled like fresh florals, but not sweet. Then it turned to smell somewhat heavy. I like this kind of scent. It's not alike others.

gyftedgrammy

The scent smells like a nice soap. It's soft enough for daily use but has to be applied every 3-4 hrs. The drydown has a touch of floral. I've read many reviews stating it smells expensive, but I don't know what that smells like!It doesn't agree with my skin (gets a little musty) so I apply it on my clothing. You have to sniff it yourself, as it's difficult to describe.

Beautiful everyday parfum
At first I didn't like it, but now I feel very well wearing it. But I don't feel myself as a maitresse :)

guest_Kittycat

This perfume is lovely. It is floral but not overpoweringly so, and it smells fresh and sexy. It also smells very expensive! I haven't bought a bottle yet and have only tested it in a department store but I loved it immediately and am soon going to get myself a bottle! Highly recommended.

Migotka

The kind of perfume I like. A scent of hidden passions coming to the surface.
At first it seems it's going to be very strong, but after a while it becomes more delicate. For some reason it reminds me of Cachare's Noa, but is not as subtle (which I consider an advantage). I love the suede undertones here... They add something unique to this fragrance.

Nuppu

I like this one, it's sexy in stylish and almost modest way (the bottle is much more rancier and hotter than the scent itself). White floral that coud be use anywhere, light and not overpowering. Doesn't last long, only couple of hours.

klee0206

I find it lovely! Warm, delicate and sexy. It goes the distance for me as well.

Jillian

Not a fan. I also wanted to love this -and tried to sample many many times. It was almost suffocating and, I must agree with takemyhusband, almost sickening (you nailed it on the head with the damp Citronella candle). Had no stamina on the skin to boot.

guest_

i wear thsi one and I have to say it has sexy effects on most men

takemyhusbandplz

This is an Aldehydic floral. Let me start by saying that I wanted to love this! In fact I tried to love it & sampled it many, many times! When first sprayed on my skin it is very heady and almost gag-inducing (and I usually love heady fragrances)! It calms rather quickly and on me, it smells like a damp citronella candle! Also, it made my allergies go haywire! I'm allergic to citronella, so, I looked up the ingredients and in fact this fragrance does have citronella in it! So, sadly this is one I cannot wear. Tho, I can see how others could find it sexy. It does have a deep, smoky & rich base, but it's a very fleeting scent. On my skin it had totally disappeared in less than 30 minutes. I do love the sexy little bottle, but, not enough to repurchase!

This is definitely a sexy fragrance. Very warm. It's a white floral musk. It is absolutely bottled sex. The lasting power is excellent, as well.
