Boucheron perfume is a beautiful rich aroma of seducing flowers, lush warm sexy and sophisticated. Its uniqueness is in the freshness of the flowers but at the same time deep and classy.. i just adore this. I always go for the stronger concentrations parfum edp..

Sexy, sophisticated, and elegant.
Boucheron opens with a lovely combination of lemon, bergamot, orange flowers, and basil. The basil gives the opening a herbaceous air, which takes the sharp edge off of all of the citrus. Consequently, one gets to experience the full complexity of the bergamot and lemon. The combination of basil and orange flowers is captivating, and I like this expression of orange flowers even more than the petals in Caron Nocturnes.
As the heart of the fragrance makes its presence felt, a perfectly balanced combination of iris and geranium weaves its way from the highest note to the lowest note, drawing everything together. The iris is sweet without being cloying, and the geranium lends the fragrance a sexy smoulder. The tuberose smells like an entire garden of flowers, and blends seamlessly with the geranium, iris, and citrus.
The base of Boucheron begins with a creamy sandalwood, which could easily become too sweet if not for the oak moss and civet that accompany it. The oak moss gives the sandalwood depth and earthiness, and the civet turns the base sexy.
As Boucheron reaches its dry down, vanilla is added to the base. Like in Boucheron Jaipur pour Homme, this is a spicy and complex vanilla, and adds to the sexy base.
It could be said that Boucheron is an old fashioned fragrance, and this is fine with me. In this case old fashioned means sexy, sophisticated, and elegant, and all I’ve got to say is bring on the past.
As a guy who frequently wears Boucheron pour Homme and Boucheron Jaipur pour Homme, I’m not sure I could get away with wearing Boucheron, but I’m oh so happy that it is out there for women to wear.
For any fans of Chanel No. 19 EdP out there, I think Boucheron is one that you should definitely check out.

They say Boucheron is an old-lady perfume, but I find its aroma fascinatingly deep, voluptuous, nuanced, and richly satisfying to my aesthetic sense. It expresses through scent what I consider many of the fine nuances of beauty in a woman's soul. Its subtle richness of scent has so many components in it, so well balanced, that they complement one another and produce a shimmering kaleidoscopic ripple of nuances. After I've had it on me for an hour or so, the scent makes a synergy with my body; it not only helps me to feel more beautiful, it seems to interact with areas of my brain that are important for my aesthetic sense of beauty. The bottle handles well too, and I'm glad it's my favorite color, purple. So Boucheron is my favorite perfume.

Boucheron stands at my uppermost tolerance range for old-style women's perfumes. That sounds disparaging, so it might be better to say it fulfills that end of my wardrobe spectrum and is best suited to cooler weather or nighttime. A full-bodied floriental, no single flower stands out from the overall bouquet. Spices and woods dominate the foreground. I lack the skills to decipher them.
This is one of the best women's fragrances ever created. It shares with Chanel no 5 the ylang-yland ingredient. Never overly sweet or floral, this one is timeless. The eau de parfum lasts all day, and there is even an option of getting a pure parfum. An exceptional, terribly refined fragrance, and I, being someone that believes tastes is for all ages, would recommend this fragrance as a "going out" fragrance for all ages. Boucheron should be highly commended for this one.
