A hidden garden at twilight — where the last rays of sunlight filter through fragrant blooms, and a subtle musk hints at the night to come.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018 by Houbigant, Quelques Fleurs Jardin Secret Collection Privee is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women created by perfumer Luca Maffei. This composition opens with a bright citrus accord of bergamot and yellow mandarin before transitioning into a lush floral heart that includes narcissus, orange blossom, jasmine, magnolia, ylang-ylang, and rose. The base notes of orris, ambrette, musk, sandalwood, and white amber lend a powdery warmth to the scent, creating an intimate and enveloping experience.

How to wear it

This fragrance has moderate longevity and sillage, so aim for two sprays to ensure that it develops fully on your skin. The citrus top notes are vibrant but fleeting, making way for the floral heart within an hour. For best effect, apply during cooler hours when the powdery warmth of the base notes can shine without overpowering.
