Fidji stands for the name of the islands located in southern part of the Pacific. Just there, on one of the Fidji islands (where the managers of the house were at their vacation), the idea of first Guy Laroche perfume was born. Fidji has become incredibly popular, because it is the perfume from the sunny islands, far and attractive. The fresh wave of galbanum, hyacinth, lemon, bergamot and meet the floral heart across rose, jasmine, violet, ylang-ylang. Spicy floral nuance of carnation gives its harshness and makes the character of the composition stronger. The base is combined of: musk, patchouli, sandal, amber, vetiver, moss. The perfume was made by Josephine Catapano in 1966.

Lovely scent! It now comes only in EdT which is very bland, still nice, but it lacks depth. I used to smell Fidji many years ago as it was my mum's signature scent. I was enchanted. It smelt divine on her. It smells worse on my skin, but what is important in Fidji is its intrinsic beauty and elegance, the virtue of being light, elegant and sexy at the same time. Very feminine with a very light sparkle quality, it boosts an aura of tropical smell. No coconut, no suntan lotion, only a light floral breeze among woody branches. A winner!

Very pretty! It's truly a tropical floral scent, but not at all sweet like the more recent tropical scents from Comptoir Sud Pacifique or the Michael Kors line. Fidji's version of "tropical" is beautiful white flowers tempered with tart citrus and an earthy/woodsy dry-down.

It strikes me as a scent that's perfect for just about any age and any occasion.

I only wish the EDT lasted a bit longer. I get just a few hours out of it. Looks like it might be tough to find in a higher concentration, though.

I absolutely love this one, too bad I am right out. No where in town can I find this one. I might have to order it on line. It is the most feminine and fresh fragrance out there. It is in line with L'air de temps, but not that powdery. It agrees better with me.It is a soft floral green which really does make you think of the island of Fidji. Some place they compared it to Sung! I have to tell you it is nothing like Sung. Much much lighter and way more beautiful. Sung is actually a bit heavy and sticky compare to Fidji. Fidji is L'air de temps without the powder and carnation.

This wonderfully balanced melange of flowers on a bed of sweet greenery virtually flies out of the bottle and onto the skin, then dries to a smooth, powdered-floral sheen. I have loved and worn this scent since I was a girl, and it captivates me now, some thirty years later, just as it did then. In a word, marvelous.

This was one of my perfumes bought for me when I was 16. I think it is lovely and reminds of of hot sunny days in the English countryside. I really does take me back to my teens.

Fidji is the essence of beauty captured in a bottle. My all time favorite. This scent has it all. Clean, fresh, sexy. Timeless classic.

Interestingly enough, it was my first fragrance, too! And that was in Bulgaria, Europe in 1989. I remember the purity of the initial impression and the sweet musky aftertones. Years later, I have dreamed of looking for it and not being able to find it - a serious nightmare ... Love Fidji and want to buy it again very soon! One fragrance you will never forget, even after 15-20 years! Fidji is truly enchanting!

This was my first parfum I purchased,I loved it so much and I'm thinking of getting it again because it's a magical clean and perfect scent!

It used to be the perfume I wore at my high school days. I recently repurchased it to realize I still like it as much as I did back then. It's a real classic, smells refined and very stylish.

My mother also wore this in the late 70's early 80's

It was my mother's summer fragrance for many years, and I loved it so much!
Unfortunately on me it's not so interesting like the effect on her skin.
