The Story
French Flower is a bold, naturalistic tuberose that feels like a fresh-cut bloom from a French garden. Aurélien Guichard uses a high concentration of tuberose absolute from India, giving it a creamy, green, and slightly spicy character. It's a tuberose for people who love the real flower, not a sugary interpretation.
