The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Flatterie by Houbigant, launched in 1955, is a Floral fragrance that embodies the elegance and sophistication of its French heritage. The composition opens with bright white florals before transitioning into a heart of iris and violet, balanced by an earthy, powdery base. This accord creates a warm and enveloping scent that has stood out for decades due to its distinctive blend of floral freshness and subtle animalic notes.

How to wear it

Flatterie has a slow development on skin; it blooms fully after about an hour. For best effect, apply two sprays to your pulse points and allow it to settle before heading out.
