Quatre Pour Femme
Fruit is the whole point of Boucheron Quatre Pour Femme Eau de Parfum, and it is piled on with a confidence that makes the scent hard to ignore.
The citrus comes first and goes fast. Grapefruit is bitter and bright, with tangerine, lemon and orange crowding in behind it, and for two or three minutes it is sharp and almost fizzy before the sweetness arrives. Then the middle opens up. Apple is crisp and green, peach is soft and ripe, and strawberry is jammy and sweet, with jasmine and rose beneath them supplying a floral body that keeps the fruit from reading like squash. It is an obvious pleasure rather than a subtle one and it does not pretend otherwise.
The base is sweet and soft. Caramel is the material that decides the second half of the wear, thick and buttery, with vanilla alongside it, cashmeran lending a dense wood underneath, cedarwood keeping a dry edge, and white musk smoothing everything to a clean finish. This is where the scent spends most of its time and it is extremely easy to like.
Expect long wear and a noticeable trail, especially in the first couple of hours, so restraint pays. Cold weather and evenings are where it belongs, although plenty of people wear it year round. It reads feminine and young, and it is a reliable gift for anyone who likes sweetness. Antoine Maisondieu, Nadège Le Garlantezec and Natalie Gracia-Cetto are credited with it, and it dates from 2015.
Boucheron is a jeweller first, the work of Frederic Boucheron, who opened for business in 1858 and whose firm has traded at 26 Place Vendome since 1893. Fragrance came in 1988 and more than twenty two scents have appeared under the name since then.
