wow, not what I expected for the price, no chemical smell, no synthetic overtones. Sweet almond vanilla cherry and Tonka, but not too sweet, more of a dark sultry sweet. great sillage and longevity. The cocktail dries down to a pretty amazing little scent. I’m quite pleased and intend on trying out some of their other available scents that meet my note interests.
proTOTO – :
I also agree that this is very similar to Dior Poison Girl but just slightly more sweet, almost sickly sweet because the weather is still very warm right now. It also reminds me a little of TM Angel it that it has a dominant gourmand note and a juicy fruity note alongside.
Slulkusela – :
This was way better than I could ever have hoped for. I actually prefer this to the original Poison Girl EDP, believe it or not. This one feels deeper than the original to me – and it’s just as (if not more) long-lasting than Dior’s version, and the silage is amazing as well. I paid around $12 for this, and for that price you could buy 10 of it and it’d still be a much better investment than the original. I recommend it and stand by it 100%, I love this!
peraminipiat – :
The scent is amazing! I love such kind of smells. But I’m dissatisfied with the longetivity! It lasted only about 2 hours on my skin and the sillage was good only for half an hour. Then it turned into a skin scent. I’m disappointed. The scent’s amazing though.
Evigen – :
This is really beautiful. I put Poison girl on one wrist & this on the other & I cannot tell the difference. Its vanilla, cherry & almond. I love it & I got a 3oz bottle for $10. Crazy. Good longevity & sillage.
Hauplispjup – :
Hmmmmmm…..I get more Dior Hypnotic Poison effect,and a touch of Dior Poison girl in the opening only. Another La Rive scent that goes on harsh-ish…then settles down quickly to a Dior HP “type” scent. I really like this one, so far. And great for the price.
Юльчик79 – :
I don’t own Poison Girl but I have tested it a few times and like it quite a bit… not enough to splurge on a full bottle though. So this seemed like a perfect compromise! It does smell really similar (to my recollection) and that’s good enough for me.
It is a really nice fragrance, I can definitely pick out the almond, vanilla and slight touch of anise..? Might be the cherry, I suppose. It’s sweet but not in a heavy, cloying way. It feels very chic and put together, not necessarily sexy but flirty.
Longevity does leave something to desire, I sprayed at 2:30 and at 6 it is very subtle. At 8 it is still there but I have to really bury my nose in my wrist to smell anything. Don’t feel like there was great sillage but I have only tested it one time.
It is certainly a great fragrance for the price. If I had paid $100 for it, I would not feel awesome about it but it is WELL worth the $15 I spent. It’s nice enough for me to feel like I don’t need to buy Poison Girl, so I will pat myself on the back, respray after 4hrs and have money leftover to buy different fragrances..!
orexbros – :
Okay, so I like this perfume. It’s fun and cute. I have only smelled Poison Girl once, when it first came out, so I cannot comment on the similarities. What it does smell like to me, in the opening, is dry orange Jell-o. The kind that comes in the cardboard box. It dries down to a nice vanilla.
Longevity is fine, especially for what I paid for it. I think I paid $12 USD and it lasts about 4 hours. That’s more than some of my more expensive perfumes can say. It was a blind buy, fun and flirty. I don’t know if I’ll wear it often, but who knows, I just might.
UPDATE: FDF is a perfume who’s beauty lies after the opening. After the overwhelmingly saccharine opening, it really does dry down into a lovely vanilla/cherry/tonka. The patchouli adds depth. What an interesting perfume! The cherry is actually working for me! The only other cherry I can wear without it going sour is Modern Muse Le Rouge Gloss. Fleur de Femme is much more gourmandish. Great value for the money!

Prekrasan. Kupila sam ga jer je od testera mirisala jakna bar 3 dana. Vratila. Sam de po njega, imam ga, tako je ženstveni, divan, dogotrajan bar 10 sati

RI do not like this perfume. I wanted to love it because I was hype about being able to save money and still have a quality perfume. That stuff excites me. But while this smells same-ish to PG the difference is too wide for me.
I did the side by side test of PG and FDF and that is what made FDF crumble for me. It smelled too synthetic. (and I do not use synthetic as another term for cheap) It’s like seeing Bizarro Superman. Yeah, he is a Superman but he isn’t The Superman. It’s just off.
In the base there is a similarity to Charlie Gold and I dislike that perfume. The peach is doing something funny and I’m not laughing. It’s unpleasant and stays the whole duration of wearing. It does not last on me more than two to three hours and after the first 20 minutes it’s a skin scent. And my skin does not eat up perfume like that.
Is this close to PG? Yes. Is it better? Highly debatable. I’m in the no camp. Is it a great deal? Yes. If your skin can get the longevity out of it like others on here and if you cannot smell the wonkiness in it that I do. Then buy and enjoy.

It’s interesting.
The first blast is a bit harsh & Has a strong baby wipe Scent. {Both Harsh & Clean}. But, in about ten minutes it fades into a sweet almond, cherry-vanilla & floral scent. I can’t believe the silage, projection and longevity of this perfüme though. For under $15 USD. The projection is about two feet and the longevity has been four strong hours and climbing. That was only a couple sprays. It doesn’t smell cheap. {Not top-shelf, but definitely not cheap}. I’m pleasantly surprised. I couldn’t wear this everyday. But, on those cold days when I’m feeling cozy and in the mood for Coco and cookies. Or just need something comforting. I like it.
BTW. This reminds me more of C.Dior Hypnotic Poison, but a bit more floral. I definitely get the Geurlain Petite La Robé vibe also.
But, If you like Geurlain’s: Petite La Robe, Dior; Hypnotic Poison/ Poison Girl, Jessica Simpson: Fancy, Azzaro: Twin, or T.M. Angel you’ll probably like this and want to add it into your collection and rotation. Because it’s very much like those types of perfumes. For a few bucks, why not?
baronada – :
Bought for my wife.She liked it. Exact poison copy..great perfume and great longevity and silage. Doesn’t feel cheap perfume by any means.
smch68 – :
When i read the reviews, i was very skeptic. I couldn’t believe La Rive produced such a high quality fragrance like people were describing in the comments. I haven’t had luck with La Rive scents in the past. They were all disappointing to me, but i can say the reviewers are right about this one. It is really very well made. I don’t think it is a dupe of Poison Girl, but it is a nice perfume in it’s own right. I get very sweet almonds and a light powdery touch. I was afraid of the cherry, because i hate cherry in fragrances and i hate sour things, but it doesn’t disturbs me at all in Fleur de Femme.
FdF is a rich, sensual fragrance for the evening. A very good choice for almond fans and great value for the money. It was a good surprise to me.
P.s: it reminded me lightly of Girlf of Now.
gfe443speagoessenda – :
I wore Poison Girl for a full day before I wore this so I could give a good comparison review. The only real difference I could discern is a richness, a fruity depth to Fluer (cherry, peach) that doesn’t exist in PG. I am another that actually prefers this scent. The silage is as good as PG, maybe better. Here’s hoping for great longevity too!
lon370InsuffBooni – :
Fleur de Femme is one of the best La Rive fragrances and my personal favorite from that house. It can easily keep up with its inspiration, Poison Girl.
Generally I think La Rive is a good dupe brand, I haven’t smelled anything really bad from them yet. But some of their fragrances smell like lighter versions of the original designer scents. This is okay, even fine in some cases, but I’m happy Fleur de Femme is not one of those light dupes, it’s pretty full-bodied.
Still it’s not a perfect 1 to 1 copy, and I don’t think it has to be.
The main difference is that PG starts fresher and is more focussed on bitter orange and rose, while in FdF the additional deep and lush fruit notes of cherry and peach play a more important role. So it’s an even warmer scent. Overall I would call Fleur de Femme creamy almond vanilla tonka heaven, a gourmand lovers dream.
Very comforting and worth more than the 5 € I paid for it.
Vitaluwka – :
Same opinion as Charess but, on my skin, longevity is huge, 7 to 9 hors with heavy sillage for 1 hour plus 2 hours of moderate sillage.Exceptional for the price, although, like PG only wearable on cool temps (never wear this on 88 F plus days, it is obnosious as well as PG).
yuppic – :
A nice fragrance, but it smells a little synthetic to my nose.
The combination of almond, vanilla and cherry is very nice. This is indeed a great dupe for Poison Girl, but please keep in mind that the quality of Poison Girl is way better (at least in my opinion)
The sillage and longevity are both weak.
alekser – :
I reviewed this in the summer and quickly realised this wasn’t a summer scent for me personally. I am now back with a winter review, and I was right, this perfume is perfect & beautiful in the colder months.
I sprayed it at 7am yesterday morning, and I could smell the resemblence to Poison Girl/Hypnotic Poison….and it was a delight.
With some dupes, the initial spray smells exactly like the perfume they are trying to duplicate, but they fall flat on the changes and are often linear in that they stay the exact same smell the whole way through…..
NOT Fleur De Femme! This was gorgeous on initial spray, changing to something even more beautiful in later stages. The first notes I smell are Rose Pathouli and musk….. 2 hours later I was sitting there at my desk at work, and thinking damn….this perfume has weakened already, I moved to fetch a cup of tea and wham! The most wonderful tonka/vanilla smell arose from my body as I moved. I can liken it to LVEB in the drydown only, it has a wonderful longevity, I was enjoying this drydown for a good 6 hours more, so that made 9 hours in total until it became a skin scent. I remember trying Poison Girl last year, but I don’t remember being struck sideways by the lovely drydown I experienced yesterday, and in no way did it last 9+ hours. I am not knocking PG because it was only the likeness to it that I bought Fleur De Femme in the first place…..but if you can’t throw the big bucks at PG (like me), then this is a wonderful dupe, and to ME, I actually prefer it. And at £9 for 90ml….it’s a no brainer.

My country’s gem! Marzipan with cherries. Crazy compliment-getter. Better than Poison Girl, which indeed is very similar. Creamy, thick, sexy, lovely in every way. Ah, yes, it also costs less than a cup of coffee.:)
39239 – :
This is clear, not powdery, sweet but not sugary.
Fleur de Femme starts with smooth, rich almond and tart cherry, then vanilla joins in.
(It reminds me of Elizabeth Arden’s Pretty Hot, but PH never reaches a drydown – it disappears immediately; and Femme has more clarity)
Fleur de Femme slowly transitions to soft, lingering sandalwood. This is one of the longest-lasting fragrances I have.
It is lovely wearing Fleur this late autumn
Dober – :
Smells very similar to Bettina Barty Vanilla hand and bodylotion, but softer. For my nose it is all about vanilla and bitteralmond. Very nice perfume with great longevity! It is a heavy perfume, but smells all time good.
You can get this perfume in Germany by DM store for about 6 €.
Pashko3250 – :
On my skin this is not an exact dupe for Poison Girl. Not even the drydown. They do share the same type of sweetness, but no lemon in here unlike in PG and Fleur de Femme has the patchouli that adds spicyness, jasmine and the sour cherry,those are some strong notes and they can change the whole vibe of a perfume, so on my skin it turns abit oriental, sweeter, abit heavier than Poison Girl. This is more mature than PG, no wonder they named it Poison GIRL and not woman lol, its def younger than fleur de femme. I also get no almond from this which is the main reason I love PG, it makes it fresh and less serious. Someone said it can get cloying, yes it can so it performs well in cold weather. I love it and wear it also to bed, weird I know but makes my dreams sweeter lol. I am wearing both right now, PG on left arm, this one on the right. I love both but they belong in the same family, not exact dupes on my skin and according to my nose. PG makes me feel different too, its almondy& sweet but not heavy. FDF has way better lasting power tho.
ris880elipseskism – :
Right now I’m testing Dior PG EDP, FdF and perfume parlour’s dupe of PG side-by-side. I love the smell of PG but on me it’s lacks staying power but most annoyingly the sillage is gone after an hour. I asked several friends nut no one could smell PG after the first hour of applying unless they came super close.
So that’s why I went on a hunt for a good replacement! What I find special about PG is the addition of rose, bitter orange and heliotrope. These prevent it from becoming a generic sugar bomb.
I got FdF for 6 euro’s in Germany, a steal! It has partially different notes than PG, the most detectable difference is less prominent rose/bitter orange, more prominent tonka, no heliotrope and added cherry and peach. To me the peach is very prominent in FdF, but mind you I loathe than note. For me peach makes everything generic. FdF certainly resembles PG but it’s less bitter and overall more generic. I’d say it resembles PG by 85%. I don’t get much patchouli from FdF. The cherry is a nice addition though and the staying power seems decent. I’ll update it once I’ve worn it an entire day.
The perfume parlour dupe is a much closer dupe than FdF, I’d say 98%. The perfomance and the price is a lot better that the original though, and that’s why it’s my favorite out of the 3.
So overall, FdF is an outstanding fragrance for it’s price in one of the nicest bottles I’ve seen from La Rive and it’s certainly is close too PG because of the shared almonds, vanilla and tonka beans. But for me it does come across as slightly less interesting mainly because of the added peach. It is still definitely worth getting because of it’s price though.
vyw150Negeltzex – :
I am testing a decanted sample (thank you, rednut) of FdF against an official Poison Girl EDP sample.
La Rive is a Polish brand and deserves to be widely recognised for providing some very good, inexpensive (not cheap!) perfumes, although some are undoubtedly better than others – but that’s the case with every brand.
On initial spray, Poison Girl is EXTREMELY sweet and has a massive sillage. I am a huge fan of the original Poison (the 80s version). I have Pure Poison, Midnight Poison and Hypnotic Poison in my wardrobe (and two elixirs); I don’t think PG belongs with the Poison range. I don’t mean to offend anyone who loves PG; it is a pretty perfume, BUT – in my opinion – this is Dior’s (very) generic response to LVEB, Black Opium etc. It is “nice” but there’s nothing about it that stands out from the plethora of other sweet designer offerings.
La Rive’s Fleur de Femme is actually a far more interesting composition. I wore it the other day and its longevity (easily 6+ hours) exceeds PG which I tried a couple of weeks ago. In fairness, I should mention I have skin which sucks up perfume; however, if your skin is NOT a sponge, you should get outstanding results from FdF!
FdF and PG have quite a few notes in common (tonka, vanilla, almond, sandalwood, rose, bitter orange), but where they diverge – and what makes FdF a better composition (in my opinion) – is the addition of peach, cherry and patchouli. I love the combination of cherry and almond in perfume; they work so well together. I think patchouli gives a far better base (yes, I know it’s a middle note) as it imparts a richness to the composition; don’t be put off FdF by its inclusion, if you aren’t a fan – it’s not a dirty patchouli, by any means. PG is far “thinner” in comparison to FdF, the sillage of which exceeds that of PG, too.
In summary: Although FdF and PG are similar, FdF is NOT a dupe. It’s actually far better and is ridiculously inexpensive; I’ve ordered 90ml from a Polish seller on eBay UK for under £10 GBP (including P&P). At that price, it’s rude not to try it.
vidoge – :
Babyyy, this juice smells so good!!! I smell diesel loverdose, black opium, Lolita Lempicka sweet and the original one!! Maybe I should stock up!!
VALTER-lol – :
I totally agree with other reviews it’s like Poison Girl, maybe a teensy bit sweeter but nevertheless very alike, and at a fraction of the price you can’t go wrong. Good Sillage and projection, lasted quite a few hours on my skin, I’m going to be trying out a few more from La Rive I think.
Definitely an Autumn/Winter fragrance in my opinion, well worth a try 🙂
Bellick – :
This is the closest dupe of Poison Girl that I have tried. So much so that I won’t be buying Poison Girl like I had planned. Great longevity, and a beautiful fragrance. I think it’s more for a cool winter than hot summer, it can become cloying if used as a summer perfume, but I am looking forward to wearing this in the winter.
claiceachsync – :
Strong and long lasting on my skin this is the kind of perfume that is remarkable but over time can become cloying and annoying.Strong almonds with tonka with a vanilla background a noirish and night scent for cool days.Quality is very good for the price. For people who love very sweet scents, this is a must. Definitely, on my skin is quite different from Manifesto, Manifesto is a tonka citrusy perfume this is almond/tonka/vanilla/ bitter orange scent.
alexanroff – :
Omg! This is a lovely one! I have no clue what Poison Girl smells like,but if its like this then yum!sweet and plenty strong!great blind buy!thanks Mary!
It’s super super LONG lasting and SWEET! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Mitch – :
Yay, Deb!!!!
I’m so happy!!!!! 🙂
kost274 – :
I did! Thanks!!!
Marmelad – :
Totally a Poison Girl dupe and I Love it!!! It will probably lack the airy girlie depth and longevity of Dior, but this is a total WIN!!! Get it!
For the price, I plan on a couple more as backups.
ideal85 – :
You can find this for $12 on ebay. Free shipping too. I have 2 blind ones coming. I can’t wait. I’m hoping for a Poison Girl dupe the way In Flames is a dupe for Olympea, and that red-diamond bottle is a Prada Candy dupe. YAY!
Лир – :
hmmmm…cherry, patch, vanilla, almonds – either this is going to be a (yet another) dupe of LVEB, Sweet by Lempicka or maybe even Nina Ricci Nina Ricci? or Dior Hypnotic Poison? maybe? who knows….just wait & test!
