Post your 3 favorite Frederic Malle's

post #1 of 103
Thread Starter 
Please post your top 3 of the Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle line.

(Editions de Parfums - EdP - how funny )

Since you can chose 3 samples in their sample pack, this topic might be helpfull for people who want to order such a pack, like me.

I think Musc Ravageur and Noir Epices will be in a lot of top 3's, but what will the third fragrance be that is popular next to these two?
post #2 of 103
Carnal Flower
Noir Epices
Musc Ravaguer
In that order for me.


Yes, E d P is funny.... Suppressor- never noticed it before till you pointed it out.

In general...

En Passant
Carnal Flower
Musc Ravaguer

But lately I've grown quite fond of Lipstick Rose and Une Fleur de Cassie, which would replace the second two if I had to pick three I want right now.

Just one recommendation: Une Rose

I like the smell of Geranium Pour Monsieur but IMO it fades too fast for the price.
I was impressed with Carnal Flower but I just can't wear tuberose.

Hmm, I thought there would be a lot of Musc Ravageur and Noir Epices in the lists.... seems like Frederic Malle is not a one or two trick pony to say the least. Highly interesting. And this topic was meant to make my sample choices more easy, but actually it's a lot more complicated now, LOL!

Well, Musc Ravageur, French lover/Noir epices, and Carnal flower are the three you must try, if you must try only three.

I assume "their sample pack" refers to EDP. I must be missing something since I did not find anything regarding sample packs on the website. Can you advise on getting a sample pack?

*A shipment cost is invoiced for each set of 3 samples ordered, due to its specific packing and its separation of regular products


As you can see the samples are 0 €. You only pay for the shipping.
But make no mistake about it. The shipping is very expensive.

Your welcome. I will probably substitute Vetiver Extraordinaire with French Lover or Carnal Flower.
post #45 of 103
Les Senteurs from London offers to ship samples at 3£ each (up to 6 sampes). They ship outside the UK, too, at least in europe. Don’t know about the US. But it’s far less expensive than ordering from Malle direct. The Vials don’t have a blotter though.

Have fun with your samples. Great fragrance line.
post #46 of 103
Le Parfum de Therese
Une Fleur de Cassis
Musc Ravageur

But there are so many that I love in this line, it is very hard for me to list. Moods change, seasons, tastes. But truly a magnificent collection.
post #47 of 103
Parfum de Therese - a stunning must-own in any collection
Lipstick Rose - fun but interesting rose that morphs depending on who wears it
Bois d'Orage - modern niche redux of the classic power masculine

Carnal Flower
Carnal Flower
Carnal Flower

I actually just went through this process over the past two weeks. The first set of three I got were;

Carnal Flower (very spring floral scent, incredibly unisex.)
Musc Ravaguer (very great spicy fragrance, very manly.)
Geranium pour Monsieur (cool minty floral, clean and fresh.)

I immediately purchased Carnal Flower. I went through the Malle boutique in New York and was helped by a gentleman named Daniel, he was very helpful with the process and even threw in four more samples for me to try with my bottle!

Noir Epices (spicy floral, dries down to a powdery spice.)
Angeliques Sous La Pluie
L'Eau d'Hiver
Lys Méditerranée

All of the samples I have tried are clearly quality fragrances, but, the one that truly moved me to purchase was Carnal Flower. As a side note, from their New York boutique they ship three samples for $20, which is tax and shipping inclusive (not sure if you are located in the US or not...). I would also recommend speaking with one of the associates at their boutique for suggestions. They ask a few questions of you and give you some ideas of what they think you will like based on your responses. I have been nothing but pleased with my process with them and I highly recommend their fragrances.
