Description
The new pillar of Agent Provocateur perfumes was founded with the release of Pure Aphrodisiaque which came out in late 2016, developed by Firmenich perfumer Honorine Blanc. Shortly after, the new Aphrodisiaque is presented, not as a flanker, but rather as the other face of the same story.
Top notes: Tempting Blackberry, Radiant Jasmine, White Pepper.
Heart: Black Honey, Blooming Cereus, Gilded Vanilla Orchid.
Base: Sensual Musk, Bewitching Resin, Creamy Musk.
The shape of the bottle is identical to the Pure Aphrodisiaque edition (desbribed by the brand as “sexy, curvy and voluptuous”), only instead of metallic pink, it is this time colored in shiny gold. It is available as a 40 and 80 ml Eau de Parfum. Aphrodisiaque was launched in 2017.

The bottle… I don’t believe I have dirty mind.. But was that designed with a specific body part in mind? Anyone…?

A strong peppery balsamic scent, I’m not a fan of it.
It’s quite sharp in a peppery way. Seems masculine to me.
Not my cup of tea.

This is s wonderfull on my skin . the honey is to die for . I know many sayes this is boring and nothing special . but to me this is so nice .
Warm beautiful Honey slightly spicy honey mingles perfect with a bit of Resin ,blackberry just a slight touch to make it a tad fruity and sweet . the pepper is also well mixed in and with the Cereus and orchid, it makes it a beautiful little spice flora .Not to sticky sweet .
This reminds me of Fairytale Lulu Guinesse wich is realy hard to find.
This isent a sex bomb kind of scent . its more alluring sniking up on you with the slightly peppery animalic honey . Sensual on the right skin in a innocent kind of way No femme fatale here ,Innocent attraction i would say
I love it

Aphrodisiaque as a name for this is so off base. It’s a soft honey scent, very light, one that hums in the background, persistent but only as a skin scent. No projection, no sillage. Honey is the main note, but the orchid and cereus bloom give an herbal/medicinal tang to it, almost like clove oil. Manuka honey is the overall effect.
When a racy underwear company puts a perfume in a shiny gold bottle and calls it a frenchified version of a suggestive name like this, one expects a BLAST of intense, heady sweetness, resin, and spice. One expects APHRODISIAQUE to be X or at least R rated, the type of thing not to be worn to work and so on. In this case the campy name has backfired because AP fans can’t help but be disappointed by the mismatch between image and actual scent.
It’s a safe, soft, pastel honey. I would rename it “Eleven O’clockish” and distribute it under the Winnie the Pooh label in an off-white flowery flacon with a baby blue cap, along with flannel jammies and character print blankets. This stuff is safe enough to wear anywhere…work, job interviews, church, tax audit. Total mismatch of image and scent.

Scented Monkey has these for a great price!
I can’t agree with comparing this to Black Orchid. I smelled none of that. BO is one of my faves, and there is nothing like it.
If I had to compare this to something it would be Lady Million Prive- except LMP is very thick and gooey with honey, patchouli, cocoa, etc…
AP Aphrodisiaque has the same creamy floral sweet honey feel but much more linear and toned down from Prive.
All in all, I like this. Easy to like for sweet-white floral lovers. Potency and longevity was average… the sillage didn’t seem huge, but longevity on clothing was good.
The bottle is f-ed up tho. Haha. The box shows you TWIST the cap off, but it’s not easy to get off. You will need to grab the bottle by a fist and twist as hard as you can. You won’t break it. 😉
