Description
A new chapter of the Agent Provocateur fragrance line is now opened with the new fragrance Pure Aphrodisiaque, “a signature scent that awakens the senses and captures the essence of femininity.” Launching in November 2016, Pure Aphrodisiaque is announced as “a captivating fragrance inspired by woman’s warm sensuality,” inspired by the design of the “Sparkly” line of fine lingerie.
The fragrance is a floral – fruity with ambery – musky background. The top notes of mandarin, anjou pear and rum merge into the sweet floral heart of wild orchid, tuberose and Indian sambac jasmine. The base ends with dark woody accords, amber crème and skin musk.
The bottle in pink metallic color is described as a “sexy, curvy and voluptuous”. The fragrance is available as a 40 and 80 ml Eau de Parfum. The nose behind this fragrance is Honorine Blanc.

It smells not light pink and not too pretty. Wrong name(

I’m such an Agent Provocateur fan that I blind bought this and I’m so disappointed I did. It’s not even interesting. It just smells like I’m waiting in line at Victoria’s Secret and everyone waiting in line has sprayed all the tester perfumes. Fruity floral boring that burns at my nose hairs. It’s has longevity I’ll give it that and I quite like the bottle design. It is a lingerie brand after all, but they would have been better off making this thing vibrate because as a scent it’s just a waste of money to me.

If this scent is the definition of “pure aphrodisiaque”, then I must be a hardcore pervert. What a disappointment… Too close to skin, too soft to be sexy or impressive. Why fool people with such marketing?

This is a fragrance you don’t plan to love but end up really loving because it just smells helluva good. It’s what you wish Victorias Secret Angels perfumes smelled like. Sexy but not cheap. High-end and seductive. Fun but cultured and classy. Enjoyable but refined. It manages to smell happy and seductive but classy at the same time. I think Victorias Secret fragrances try to do that. This one just does it.
If you love the sex appeal of VS, but can’t stomach how cheap it is, then go for this. It’s something that will make you feel young, sensual and joyous! And expensive!
I usually don’t think that white florals are done well; however, the white floral in this is done magnificently. It doesn’t smell like its trying too hard to be a white floral; it just IS!

Really pretty like all their other perfumes a must have.

I’ve tried this at the airport in London with an open mind, and I’m sad to say that my first impression was: “cheap Victoria’s Secret body spray that went bad”. Maybe the tester was off, but for now I only got a plasticky synthetic floral.

Lingerie label Ann Summers released a fragrance in 2015 called Aphrodisiac. Hm… Really, Agent Provocateur? I mean, the spelling alone won’t fix that! 😀 On another note I haven’t seen it around in Germany.

I have to say, from the name, you expect one type of fragrance; something mature and sexy. In reality though, you get the total opposite. I can’t help feeling like I’ve been rolling around in a sweet shop.
Don’t get me wrong, the perfume is nice, but I don’t see it as a seductive scent. I see it as a very youthful, sweet and cheerful type of perfume. Maybe something for day time, or I could imagine people wearing it when they first start going clubbing.
If you want something that has more of a strong, independent, sexy woman type of vibe, you probably won’t find that here. If you’re after a sweet day time scent, chances are that this is an alright fit.
Also, if you, like me, are a huge fan of the original Agent Provocateur scent, don’t expect this to be anything like them.
I won’t discuss the bottle as I think others have done a great job at that already.
In summary though: the name doesn’t seem to fit the scent, neither does the advertising. More sweet and sugary than sexy and seductive.

This is a fresh and light fruity floral, I consider the scent nice and easy going.
But seductive and sexy aphrodisiaque? No, I don’t think so.
It’s fresh, like the feeling of coming out of the shower. Suitable for an everyday wear. I think, it would be great for spring and summer, it has kind of fresh air feeling to it.
There’s a couple of funny comments about the bottle here, that didn’t cross my mind actually.
I personally like the scent, but the marketing is just wrong.

Why isn’t there a cute little nub at the top of the cutout?

It is in stores already and i hVd tried it for 2 days in s row. What can i say? Bottle indeed looks tacky in real life as well and sillage is very soft. Its more like a skin scent. But the scent itself is really nice. The opening got me hypnotized, its soooooo yummy, i like the delicate rum note, since it could have been too strong and could ruin composition. The tuberose is also very soft, the strongest accord to my nose is orchid, surrounded by other notes. Not original at all, i feel like opening smells a very faint version of Balenciagas “Talisman”, but a very much dilluted and a weak one. The drydown is similar to “black opium” however. Not sure at all if i would ever buy it, its nice but not memorable at all. And i wish that sillage and lasting power would be waaaaay to better than they are right now.

Icky new bottle design and I think the scent seems unoriginal which is too bad, AP has some very unique well made scents, This seems very run of the mill.
Bryane – :
btw…as a straight girl, I would definitely prefer a flacon looking like a d*ck….lol

Ok… I loved Agent Provocateur because they realised that sexy isn´t super sweet and candy like and fruity. Have they stopped making those truly sexy scents?
Дядя Миша – :
I’m not a tuberose fan; I don’t wear the bottle, I wear the scent.
I’d be willing to try it, for sure. I don’t see a full bottle in my future, though.
astonsips – :
Certainly that flesh pink color is their favourite!
FRED200 – :
and the pattern on the box looks like a cross between a sperm cell and a vulva. The vaginal bottle reminds me of the original Boucheron bottle.

Subtlety, thy name is Agent Provocateur

Hum… Is that a vagina ?
