En Passant by Frederic Malle is a Floral Green fragrance for women

 

A tranquilizing whiff of lilac that smells like hope. En Passant is the very essence of the spring season when lilac flowers bloom and occupy the air with their intoxicating floral beauty. A raw and naked beauty made with several ingredients to support the divine aroma of the flower. Cucumber, watery notes, wheat, cedarwood, and musk play a gentle, yet prominent, femininity on the skin.

Smells like Spring!

Lilac

I like this 2nd best of all of the lilac perfumes I have tried-- Lilac, its a hard scent to nail- this has floral notes and its elegant without smelling like an elderly lady. I do detect the cucumber which gives it that freshness. It's a subtle fragrance, and like other commenters said, it does not last long. That said once it dries down you do have a lovely lilac aroma like spring time in Highland park.

Fresh scent that stays

I like this perfume, and the fact that there is freshness in it... but it is still very 'perfumey' when all i want is 'lilacy' ... it kind of makes me want to sneeze. i still wear it... and will probably buy more. but i want to like it more than i actually like it...

I initially liked this fragrance and found it very sweet, fresh and smelling like realistic lilacs. However after wearing it a couple of times and for a length of time, I find that it must be used very sparingly and balanced with something that can ground it a bit. Otherwise it becomes overly sweet, a bit too synthetic and vacuous. I could see how this might be very nice in hot weather when a refreshing floral would be welcome. Maybe a bit of citrus, fruit or musk could help. High marks for originality and imagination!

Fleeting, but Lovely

I want to douse myself with this - it's such a pure, dewy lilac scent that it brings me right back to childhood, smelling lilacs in my grandmother's garden. It doesn't last terribly long, but while it does, it's a true pleasure.

STRONG

Reminded me of unwashed skin and musky/rosey perfume. One drop wasted on my table and it took over the entire room! Did not like!
