In their words
“Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I love it so much. And yes, I get the Valaya comparison. But Fleur Narcotique is Valaya’s cool cousin who lives in the city. Softer, sophisticated and elevated. The perfumer for both Valaya and FN are the same. But they are definitely nuanced. I prefer this over Valaya any day yet they do serve their purpose.

“I purchased 2 different scents. When it arrived one bottles was broken and the entire box was wet from spilling out. Broken glass was in the box too. I emailed the company and also sent pictures. I had to send THREE emails before I got a response. It took right at two weeks before they even shipped a new one out. Then it came and the pump wasn’t working. Absolutely NOTHING would come out. Useless!”
