Is Fleur Défendue still in production?+−
This fragrance was originally released in 2008 and has since been discontinued, making it a sought-after collector's item for fans of the brand’s earlier releases.
How does the almond note come across in this scent?+−
The almond in the base provides a soft, powdery sweetness that resembles almond meal or marzipan. When combined with the sour cherry, it creates a subtle "cherry-pie" undertone that avoids becoming overly heavy or sugary.
Is this fragrance suitable for hot weather?+−
While it is a sweet gourmand, the prominent green stem and wormwood top notes provide enough crispness to make it wearable in the summer, though it is most popular during the spring months.
How does this compare to the original Lolita Lempicka "Apple" perfume?+−
While both share the iconic aniseed note, Fleur Défendue removes the heavy ivy and licorice of the original and replaces them with lighter greens and florals like peony, making it much fresher and less intense.
