Frederic Malle French Lover is a dry green woody Eau de Parfum where pimento, angelica, galbanum and juniper create a sharply aromatic opening. Cedar, vetiver and iris shape the heart before patchouli, frankincense and white musk settle underneath, giving Pierre Bourdon's composition an earthy smoky character with austere polished woods.
