Best Apricot Privee by Phlur Alternatives & Similar Perfumes

An invisible tattoo of the tropics, glowing on warm skin. Latin for “tropical light”, Tropicum Luminis begins with a soft rush of cassis, coconut, apricot and plum — juicy but restrained — lifted by fresh aloe vera from the Canary Islands. The heart is floral, earthy, gently alive, with green pepper flickering amid ylang-ylang and peony. A woody resolution of Mysore sandalwood and Cambodian oud grounds this extrait alongside tonka bean and musk.

A tribute to the woman who ruled the silver screen, seductive and elusive in hazy black and white. She passes through the night lea­ving behind a trail of smoke and jasmine, demanding to be approached yet remaining unapproachable. The essence of glamour, she is an icon who becomes an addiction…

This fragrance is inspired by love, drama and opulence of the famous painting by P. P. Rubens and the legend of Samson and Delilah. Osmanthus Noble is intense and has a strong personality and notes of Osmanthus, Ylang Ylang and Jasmine absolute flowers, spicy tobacco, warm amber and sandalwood.

At opening you can feel fresh, spicy and aldehydic notes blended with bergamot and mandarin that give vividness and intensity.  The noble osmanthus absolute combined with an aromatic clary sage play together to form a soft suede accord. Tobacco absolute, delicious black cherry, saffron and tonka beans play an important role in creating a sensual atmosphere. Floral notes of jasmine sambac and ylang-ylang give vitality and bloom in the heart. In the dry down, oakmoss absolute, labdanum, sandalwood, smoky vetiver and animalic musks bring a spiritual feeling and allow the perfume to linger on the skin.

Osmanthus in this perfume is harvested deep within Guilin province in China. Absolute d’Osmanthe is a modern take on the centuries old essence. The flowers bloom between October and November filling the entire valley with a dreamy fragrance. For the past 2000 years, this fragrant flower with an aroma reminiscent of apricot has been part of perfumers pallette.

In this formula velvety woods meet for dark smooth coffee and take their time lounging in the spicy vetiver shade.

A fruit and herbs sorbet.

Granita or 'granité' in French (also called 'granita Siciliana' in Italian) is a refreshing semi-frozen dessert typical of Sicily.

It comes in an intermediate consistency between that of sherbet and crushed ice. Its current manufacture involves the partial freezing of a constantly stirred mixture of water, ice and fruit or other tasty ingredients.

Helioflora is a woody floral built like a 'granita' made with flowers, fruits, wood and herbs. A sorbet of rhubarb, apricot and basil brings a particular flavor to the floral scent of Buddleia (Butterfly tree) and the soft woody heat of a red sandalwood note.

This monster of an “anti-perfume” is simultaneously clean and dense, the olfactory interpretation of the building material. Aptly encased in a grey concrete bottle, this eau de parfum is an astonishingly diffusive blend of sandalwood, rose and spices, with a powerful smoothness that mimics the material's satisfying surface.

This is a one-of-a-kind mix of musky jasmine and balsamic black hemlock. It's a perfume formed of echoes: the summery echo of jasmine bouncing off cool hemlock, the smoky echo of sandalwood vibrating against spices, and many more.

It’s a tender and enveloping perfume, sort of a comforting cocoon of milky mildness and cold spices.

It evokes the sweltering heat from the sun at the zenith, which erases colors, leaving only a blinding white hue; it surprises with its spicy freshness.

For its creator ‘Lumière Blanche is a fragrance with beautifully contrasting hot and cold notes’.

A tribute to iconic chypre fragrances, 1993 plays with the fruity succulence of peach crashing into dense chocolate, before a final dance-off with earthy, almost minty patchouli. A commanding perfume with serrated edges. Dangerous.
