Eclat is a fresh, sweet and floral perfume. Its composition opens with bergamot, lemon and freesia. Frangipani, orange blossom and gardenia mix their sweet notes with gourmand aromas of marshmallow and amber.
The floral composition stays floral, airy and very feminine in this perfume created in 2006.
The perfume is produced as parfum (in aluminum flacons of various volumes) and as 100 and 200 ml EDT, with a 600 ml refill.

Hmmm...this scent is like a soft blanket, like a tender touch.
I cannot stand with sugary, syrup-like fragrances but this fragrance is an exeption.
On me it's gentle, calming fulsome gardenia accord with frangipani, marshmallow and a touch of amber. Interestingly I could not detect bergamott, just a pale sigh of saffron in the opening.
I agree, it has similarity with Lancome Hypnose but this scent much tender and less sweet than Hypnose.(Thanks God!!:D)
Yes to me it resembles Hypnose from Lancome, somehow softer and gourmand
Éclat is a mystery to me. It opens sweet with a hint of marshmellow and a touch of bitter lemon. After a while the smell transferes to something recognisable but I can not remember or describe what this is. On me this is not a gourmand but something oriental (frangipani) and mystic in a light way. After some hours I can feel the light and sweet undertone of marsmellows. The sillage is very good if you spray a couple of times on each place. In fact, the parfume lasts more than 24 hours, and to me it smells even better the morning after. I think this parfume is more interessting than wonderful, but on days when you want to be a nose-teaser at the office, this perfume will be perfect.
I agree with Missk - a "classy gourmand" seems to be very fitting. I also agree with danimcneil that there is something like unripe citrus in there and I love it! Like a little bit soapy unripe citrus with underlying, kind of "candied", gentle sweetness to me! And of course there are flowers there! Exotic, fragrant, but delicate. This is charming and elegant and just lovely. The only problem is - I have tested the eau de toilette and it seems to be extremely "thin". Half and hour later I keep pressing my nose on my skin and struggle to smell anything at all...
I was a able to test this recently in the parfum form. To my nose, this smelled identical to hypnose, which I'm not a huge fan of. I was really excited about this one because of the marshmallow note. I love that note! But this literally smells like non ripened citrus. That's all. I really wish I could smell what others did! So I have a pure parfum 2ml sample. Which is a large amount for what it is. Anyone in the us that would like to try this...let me know!
Eclat by Fragonard is what I'd call a classy gourmand.
Eclat is sweet in a subtle way. This is nothing like the sickly sweet gourmands that the celebrities like to produce, Eclat has a sugary and candy-like delicacy that won't make you nauseous.
The scent opens with candied lemon and soft, feminine freesia and gardenia. From the word go, Eclat has that undeniable girlish charm. In my opinion Eclat would make the perfect gift for a young girl just being introduced to the niche side of the fragrance industry.
The frangipani note is delightful and lightly sugared. In almost every fragrance, frangipani has a way of capturing a tropical landscape in a bottle. There is a subtle hint of coconut in there somewhere too.
Marshmallow, amber and a touch of musk finishes off Eclat nicely. The sweetness is at its strongest in the drydown.
Eclat lasts relatively well and I must add that the price makes this fragrance very affordable. This fragrance is sold in both eau de toilette and pure parfum concentrations. While I haven't managed to try the parfum version, I will definitely make it my mission to suss it out.
I actually have the vintage one, that is not a gourmand but actually a floral aldehydes in the 70's style!! This one I still need to find somewhere!
Action
AHA! It contains a marshmallow note!
I wore Eclat to bed-Yow! Is it a sparkle, or a floodlight? Superbright effect! I thought it was kind of pretty but way too sweet-if you love (sugar-dusted)supersweet and not too dark or deep Oriental Florals this might be for you. For me, it's maybe wearable, as most Fragonard fragrances are, but it would usually give me a high blood sugar!
a delicious floral, a harmony in which you can't separate sweetness of flowers from sweetness of marshmallow. Tender sweet fragrance.
