Balenciaga Perfume: Different and distinguished

Balenciaga's noses have a reputation for coming up with avant-garde women's fragrances. One of the most popular Balenciaga perfumes for women is a great example. Balenciaga Paris Perfume is a splendid modern chypre floral with a unique twist. The defining notes here are violet and cedar wood. The delicate, powdery sweet aroma of violet contrasts wonderfully with the refreshingly aromatic cedar to form an extremely classy daytime scent that's ideal for spring or summer. It becomes warm and slightly mossy in the dry down too, thanks to the presence of patchouli. Invigorating yet sweet, it's the perfect Balenciaga perfume for showing off your sophisticated side.

Another wholly unique fragrance is Balenciaga Perfume Florabotanica. First designed in 2012 to appeal to a younger audience than Paris, this is an aromatic and green eau de parfum - which is an atypical profile for a woman's scent. The strangeness continues when we look into the notes: a floral accord in the heart of rose and carnation is standard enough, but a leading aroma of mint is not. The most eyebrow-raising part of this EDP's DNA though is the addition of cannabis. It's certainly a bold choice, since this narcotic herb has such a pungent aroma, and its sour edge is not appreciated by all. However, Balenciaga's perfumers have worked their magic. Rather than being foetid controversy-bait, the cannabis notes are used to augment the mossy aromatic fougère scents from the other ingredients.

Or you can choose One of the Balenciaga B. perfumes. This series is also unusual. Green like Florabotanica, its signature nose is bright and sugary petit pois. When combined with the other fragrances it creates an ozonic accord that's reminiscent of freshly mown grass. A must try for spring or summer.

Discontinued Balenciaga perfumes

Typically Balenciaga fragrances for women are quite expensive, and there are two reasons for this. The first is the same reason that all niche perfume houses, from Tom Ford to Amouage can be costly - their use of high quality ingredients. However, there's another, more tragic reason for the high prices Balenciaga perfumes command.

As far as we can tell, Balenciaga have wound down their perfume operation. Their most recent perfume was released in 2016 and we can find no reference to fragrances on their website. Certainly their most popular fragrances, including Balenciaga Perfume Florabotanica, have been discontinued. This means stock is truly limited, so you'd best buy up these incredible fragrances while you still can.
