Guy Laroche Fidji Eau De Parfum 50ml Spray

Guy Laroche Fidji Eau de Parfum 50ml is a 20th-century classic — a sophisticated floral originally launched in 1966 and signed by perfumer Josephine Catapano. A green opening of violet leaf and cardamom leads into a lush floral heart of jasmine, Bulgarian rose, ylang-ylang, carnation and iris with subtle spices, before settling into a warm, polished base of sandalwood, patchouli and musk.

About Guy Laroche

Guy Laroche was a French haute couture house founded in Paris in 1957 by the eponymous designer, with a reputation for elegant, slightly architectural ready-to-wear. The brand's fragrance line, produced under licence, has long focused on classical French perfumery; Fidji launched in 1966 and was named after the Pacific islands as a celebration of distant horizons, freedom and nature.

Who it's for

Fidji suits women drawn to vintage-style, full-bodied French perfumery — those who appreciate sophisticated florals with depth and warmth. The composition is at its best in spring and autumn, ideal for office, daytime and formal evening wear, and works comfortably across the year in temperate climates. Anyone who enjoys classics such as Lanvin Arpège or Chanel No. 5 will recognise the era and the territory.

How to wear it

Hold the bottle around 15 cm from the skin and spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck, and behind the ears. Apply to clean, moisturised skin straight after a shower for the longest wear. Two sprays usually balance well; the floral heart blooms gradually on warm skin as the sandalwood-and-musk drydown develops over the first hour.
