An iconic classic in its own rite, Quelques Fleurs is a true ingenious scent of its time. The French perfumer, Robert Bienaimé, unveiled Quelques Fleurs the first true multi-floral blend ever created, in 1912.
Since then, his perfectly-balanced, refined bouquet has become modern perfumery’s peerless criterion for pure, meticulously-crafted, multi-floral accords. Prior to his bold invention, floral fragrances had been mainly singular flowers, or florals combined with various nuances of herbs and spices. Bienaimé’s singular triumph is remarkable for its secret, mythical formula. Upwards of 15,000 exemplary flowers and 250 prestigious raw materials are diligently-curated in the creation of a single ounce of perfume.

The Sniff on Fortune by Brocard:
"Fortune is quite a light scent, which means that on the one hand it is very easy to wear, but on the other it probably wouldn’t suit a formal evening function. It’s very youthful and fun and made us think that it was the sort of thing best suited to taking the kids to the park or for a lunch date with friends."

Perfumer: Alexandra Carlin
An ambery floral universe carefully put together with stunning night blooming flowers.
The formula features an accord of Galant de Nuit, also called night blooming jasmine (technically not a jasmine, but a plant closer related to potatoes). This gentle flower cannot be distilled, but its captivating fragrance has been recreated for Bloomastral with the help of a very specific jasmine variety. The perfumer used a particular jasmine which can only be harvested in Egypt within the space of two weeks in August. There is also a delicious, fruity and honeyed osmanthus theme. Finally, the oud oil adds extra mystery and darkness to the story.
