Fleur Bienaimee(1920)

A mixed-floral composition credited to Robert Bienaime, opening on bergamot before a blended floral heart, closing on musk and woods. Fleur Bienaimee plays on the perfumer's own surname, meaning beloved, a subtle personal signature within the fragrance's name itself. Bienaime, who created Quelques Fleurs in 1912, brought the same abstract-bouquet sensibility to Houbigant's smaller releases throughout the 1910s and 20s.
