Murmure is as delicate as a gentle whisper (murmure means whisper in French). It is as gorgeous and elegant as a fresh bouquet of white flowers and is dedicated to a young, gracious woman who likes classic, but fresh floral fragrances. The center of the composition contains Sambak jasmine and white flowers, with a fresh opening and a classic woody base.
The top notes include mandarin, freesia and white roses. The middle notes incorporate Sambac jasmine, orange blossom, wild violet, tuberose and lily. The base carries vanilla, palisander and cedar.
The perfume was created by Jacques Cavallier and Alberto Morillas in 2002.

I have read so many bad reviews on this perfume, and yet for me it's one of the most beautiful projections-it is elevated, full and lush, it has quite strong sealage and it one moment stays close to skin and next it wiffs a cloud of white flowers scent. It is no doubt sexy-I had so many compliments on it, however it is sophisticated and confident-if a bit distant. It does not say:come here. It says:I am in harmony with myself. Using my 3rd bottle and hoping it will not be discontinued. It's not vulgar, not stinky, its heavenly. It may be just my body chemistry that marries this gem so well.
very beautiful. yes, its floral, but unique, long lasting, nice projection. one of my favorites.
After about 5 minutes, this turns into an absolute nightmare on my skin. It doesn't happen very often that I feel compelled to wash off a scent but this is certainly one of them.
What happens is something resembling an old, cold ash tray - know what I mean? Terrible. I'm not sure exactly what could be causing this but I will have to investigate, because I truly think this scent has a ton of potential, despite it being more of a bark than a whisper ;)
Seriously wondering what ingredient here could be causing this cold, stale smoke nuance on my skin :(
Never more...
I really like it, different, unique. Interesting and has mystery to it.
Okay, update - the more I wear this the more I LOVE IT!!!
this is very subdued. lovely light floral. the jasmine is my favorite note in this as it surrounds the other floral notes seductively. the lasting power is very good. very demure, but yet, you and others will know its there.
8 out of 10
this is all about the jasmine and orange blossom, very light, a summer breath at dawn when the dew is still fresh. a lovely, light white floral.
One of the worst frags I ever smell,it`s not for me,too much jasmine there.First time I spray it on me I feel terrible and this gave me very bad head ache.
I like it! It' so light and cheerful like the joy of life!
Yes definetely jasmin is everywhere, i agree with Basia anda minimalist. I have an EDT one and one spray only can make me smell like after jumped into a jasmin pool or something, very annoying. But the dry down quite okay but takes about an hour or more.In my opinion it is more suitable for woman in their 30th or 40th. Um 30 but i don't think it's suit for me, too heavy.
I'm not fond of Van Cleef and Aprels. They are usually too sharp for me, but this one is pretty. I feel a strong jasmine tea note there but no tea is mentioned.
This performs like a typical floral on my skin-sharp, sharp, sharp.
More of a "PSSSSSSTTTTTTTTTT!!!" than a whisper, but it softens and becomes much more pleasant and feminine.It smells both too innocent and pedestrian for me-but on somebody who it suits better, it might create a lovely aura....
I alsof like First of Van Cleef & Arpels, but it's more classic. As from the moment I smelled Murmure I love it especially in summer. Fresh at first, classic in the middel and a comfortable hart. I only wear it in the summer, but a very suitable fragrance for every refined, sporty and romantic women.
I think it's a bit too flowery and one-dimentional. It did not develop on me and while wearing it I felt like I was in a flower shop.
A perfect spring-summer jasmine scent - very elegant and feminine indeed, though not very complex. The lasting power is excellent and the bottle is adorable!
I try first time a VCA fragrance...I've received my pack from post today and wouwww! Such a thing can't be! It smells just like a young and minimalist woman could smell...First it's very intense jasmin'y and a li'l bit lily, after half an hour jasmin is getting down and lilly's intensity rises like a teeter totter!...
If Alien is one of the best of jasmin scents for Winter, this is its summer-spring analogue...
I agree with the previous reviewers saying that its basically a smell of jasmine, but with some hints of lily and freesia. The overall composition is sophisticated and original, perfect for spring time. Strange, I like everything in its notes, and the overall composition as well, but it appears to be one of those difficult to wear scents that I love but use very rarely.
To me this one is a very sharp floral scent... I distinctively smell the jasmine.
It smells like jasmin with jasmin surrounded by jasmin
One of my favourite collection. From the structure , the smell, and the design of the bottle. It is beautiful,sexy and elegant.
I love this perfume. i also love first and van cleef.
I tried this on in a department store once and i could not stop smelling my wrist. just so soft and yet sexy the same time???
Very nice and seductive fragrance. I am a Van Cleef&Arpels fan.
