About This Perfume
Fragonard Frivole smells like bright citrus breeze with soft floral air. It opens with bergamot, green mandarin orange and lemon, moves into jasmine, lily of the valley and peony and settles on iris, musk and patchouli. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days. Released in 2012.
Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and uplifting for casual days.
- Sample first if: floral is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike citrus fragrances.
Around $64.

A closer look at the picks
For Fragonard Jasmin Perle de Thé (Eau de Parfum, 2026), expect sunlit jasmine tea and soft powdery woods: bergamot and lemon up top, guaiac wood, white musk and cedar underneath.
