Mon Amour Solid Perfume — the fragrance by Bourbon French Parfums
Mon Amour Solid Perfume is a women’s solid perfume by Bourbon French Parfums, released in 2012.
This release stands out for its unusual format: instead of the familiar spray bottle, the composition is presented as a concentrated perfume product that is convenient to apply precisely and carry with you.
Bourbon French Parfums is the oldest perfume house in the United States, with a history that began in 1843 in the heart of New Orleans’ French Quarter.
Mon Amour Solid Perfume continues the brand’s characteristic connection with the city’s atmosphere, where European heritage meets a vivid, sensual and slightly mysterious aesthetic.
Character and olfactory direction
In terms of its scent profile, Mon Amour Solid Perfume combines oriental and fruity accords.
The composition features amber, fruity, gourmand and musky accents, giving the fragrance a rich, soft and seductive character.
At the heart of the impression are juicy blackberry, creamy vanilla, warm amber and velvety musk.
The berry nuance adds expressiveness, vanilla softens the composition with a gourmand touch, while the amber-musk base creates a deep, enveloping background.
Development and sillage
The exact top, middle and base notes of this fragrance are not specified, so its development is best described through the overall composition rather than divided into a classic fragrance pyramid.
The impression unfolds around a combination of blackberry, vanilla, amber and musk, gradually moving from fruity expressiveness to a warmer and more sensual character.
In the database, Mon Amour Solid Perfume is marked as a fragrance with a very strong sillage.
For a solid perfume, this is a particularly interesting characteristic: the product can be applied locally, allowing you to control its intensity and choose the areas where the fragrance will develop most noticeably.
The perfumer and the style of the release
The composition was created by perfumer Mary Eleftheria Behlár.
Her work with fruity, gourmand, amber and musky nuances highlights the sensual character of Mon Amour Solid Perfume and makes it a distinctive representative of the feminine oriental-fruity family.
The fragrance will appeal to those who enjoy rich, sweetish compositions with a berry accent and prefer an unconventional application format.
It can be suitable for evening looks, romantic occasions and cool weather, when its amber-vanilla character unfolds with particular warmth and comfort.
How to choose a similar fragrance

At the same time, Mon Amour Solid Perfume stands out for its combination of a solid format, a blackberry accent and a dense amber-musk sillage.
The exact amount to apply to the skin and clothing is not specified for this release.
It is best to start with a small amount on the skin, assess how intensely it develops and, if necessary, carefully add more, especially if you prefer a delicate scent.
