Beloved by the legendary actress Ava Gardner and beautiful Natalie Wood, Fleurs de Thé Rose Bulgare is an exquisite tribute to a romantic rose bouquet.

The graceful composition is veiled in rich amber, resulting in a perfume that is pure liquid seduction.

Nuits de Noho Scented Candle
A woman-only scent, in a midnight blue-tinted glass. This avant-garde gourmand treat is concocted of citrussy bergamot, seductive jasmine, and a jolt of gin-like patchouli. For all those times when you miss the echoing nighttime clack of Manolo heels on the cobblestone streets of Downtown’s most sexily urbane enclave.
Diptyque candles are very high quality and give out a great "throw"..all scents are fantastic.
Just one of my favorite things..at Aedes

CREED Fleurs de Bulgarie Millesime
A gorgeous and sophisticated fragrance made from the rarest Bulgarian rose essences with ambergris and musk to provide depth and tenacity.
I have a huge rose fragrance collection and of course, all of them are wonderful and special. I adore all of "My Roses" but there are only a few roses in my collection though that sing with unabashed glory and that is Fleurs De Bulgarie, Creed Fleurs de The Rose Bulgare, Edouard Flechier Une Rose and Guerlain Rose Barbare.
Fleurs De Bulgarie is such a haunting perfume for me and I can never put my finger on it, I am almost transported to 'Somewhere In Time" with Jane Seymour and Christopher Reeve. The beautiful rose scent with ambergris and musk, it simply transcends time...no other fragrance in the world smells like this, it is so unique. Once I sampled it, I could not get my mind off it's beauty and was obsessed until I owned it.
Creed Fleurs de Bulgarie is a gorgeous fragrance made from the rarest Bulgarian rose essences with ambergris and musk to provide depth and tenacity. Creed Fleurs de Bulgarie is based on a perfume created by Creed in the nineteenth century for Queen Victoria. Fleurs De Bulgarie is a timeless classic and romantic fragrance.

The spicy and vivacious fragrance, created through the vision and expertise of Bertrand Duchaufour for L'Artisan Parfumeur, retains the woody, Oriental allure of the candle and the room scent, yet includes new facets of spice for sparkle, chypre effect for sophistication, balsam for comfort and leather to compliment and enhance the original fragrance. the Eau de Parfum evolves on the skin over time, leading the wearer to explore intriguing top notes of bright orange oil, spicy pink pepper, aromatic cardamom and luxurious incense essential oil for a lively, sparkling effect.
This is followed by a rich heart of piquant black pepper, rose, iris, verdant cedarwood and incense resinoid, finishing with sophisticated base notes of patchouli, coffee, opoponax, benzoin and treemoss. Everlasting flower, white musk and a hint of vanilla provide a soft and comforting touch. The sophisticated scent vibrates with contrast and excitement, yet comes together in a hypnotic and luxurious harmony, luring you into the seductive landscape of fragrance.
