Quelques Fleurs Jardin Secret

A whispered conversation in a hidden courtyard, where the scent of blooming flowers mingles with soft musk and the quiet rustle of leaves.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2017 by Houbigant, Quelques Fleurs Jardin Secret is a floral woody musk fragrance for women, created by Luca Maffei. This composition opens with bright citrus notes of neroli and bergamot, which give way to a heart of magnolia, orris root, narcissus, orange blossom, ylang-ylang, jasmine, and rose. The base layers in warm woods and powdery musk, creating an intimate and enveloping scent that feels both fresh and cozy. This fragrance captures the essence of a secret garden where delicate florals blend with subtle musk and woody notes.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for an intimate experience — it reads better close to skin than from across a room. The citrus notes fade within an hour but the floral-musk base lasts well into evening, so one or two sprays is sufficient.
