I have a 55/100ml bottle of this for swap if anyone is interested PM me :)
I can't believe I waited for so long to finally get this beauty! I think this is a very underestimated and hardly known fragrance that deseves being praised over and over.
I also find it more sweet than green with a touch of lemon zest. I must have almost nothing with a prominent heliotrope in my collection, because to me it smells very different from everything I have.
Very elegant, unobtrusive but noticeable.
Folie Douce is not really a floral green composition to my nose, unless there is something seriously wrong with my olfactory bulbs :-)
Folie Douce is a lovely creamy fragrance, the trajectory would be more towards vanillic rather than green notes to me from the very beginning till the very end.
I have this fragrance thanks to the courtesy of my Fragrantica Sister :-) and I must say it is very feminine and soothing.
Lasting power and silage are acceptable; gentle but noticeable enough to get a nice whiff every now and then.
The flacon is cute and quite practical in my handbag.
Folie Douce reminds me a bit of L'Instant De Guerlain; both share the creamy and soothing feel and both are very detoxicating to my nose :-)
All in all, FD is a great and very much underestimated juice.
Well worth trying if creamy florals rock your boat.
Can anyone else rate it, please? I have been looking at it for quite a while...very interested.
I am actually surprised that only 1 person has given a review on this perfume! It is made by two big noses, and I am a true fan of Sophie Labbe. I adore the work she did on the Gigli's and Popy Moreni's.
This perfume is categorized as floral green, but it is actually very very sweet. The heliotrope almost gives this perfume a typical Sophia Grosjman feel to it. Chat Lunatique once compared it to Champs Elysees. To me it is more like a Grosjman child, but it is a very interesting perfume for those loving Heliotrope!
Good luck!

This is lovely in the parfum if you can find it, very floral. In the EDT the fruits are more pronounced and it is more casual.
