  • About The Fragrance

    An exceptional fragrance by Dominique Ropion, Portrait of a Lady enhances the opulence and voluptuousness of the Turkish rose in extravagant proportions.

    With Portrait of a Lady, Frédéric Malle and perfumer Dominique Ropion mark a new stage in the great timeline of perfumery. With this immoderate rose, magnified by woody tones, amber and incense, the designers are redrawing the contours of the cypress, an olfactory family synonymous with the finest eras of 20th-century perfumery. Their play of light and shadow, their elegance and extreme refinement. From this expert craftsmanship, there emerges a splendor created to outlast time.

  • How To Use It

    - Spray on skin, chest, behind ears, wrists, nape of neck, at the hairline, inside knees.
    - Tips: Spray hair at same distance for subtle and lasting diffusion. Spray on clothes at a distance for more staying power.

Stunning scent

I had been coveting this scent for a while and then decided to treat myself. It is absolutely gorgeous. My friends all loved it too and complimented the scent. It is pricey but it really does last all day and I only wear on special occasions. I do moisturize and wear a talc free powder and then spray my perfume and I do think this helps with longevity of any perfume, but I also spray a little in my hair. When a breeze or the wind picks up, it wafts and stays with you all day.

Reformulated,still ok

This has been watered down since Estee Lauder bought Frederic Malle, which is a complete shame because the price went up. It is still an amazing perfume but nothing to do with the original version. The metallic cloud is way toned down as well as the rose.

A scent like no other!

My firm favourites for about 15 years have been molecule 02 and Diptique Philosokysis. I smelt POAL on a colleague at work and loved it. It’s very different from my usual perfumes…rose and musky but it’s the lingering scent that I love, after it has settled on my skin. It’s magical, quite sophisticated but has this unusual deep smell that is so nuanced. I love it!

Perfect

This is and forever will be my number one favourite perfume. There's nothing else out there that compares to it, no cheaper dupe. That is a shame, given the price, but a bottle lasts a really long time as you need so little of it to maintain the scent all day. I've never more complemented by others than when I'm wearing this.

Christmas Gift

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my daughter who had said she had smelt it on someone and just had to ask what it was? My daughter said it’s stunning and oozed elegance! She was over the moon with her gift
