Fleur de Minuit by Lothantique is a unisex eau de parfum.
The composition is built around fruity, floral, and mossy notes, giving it an expressive, multidimensional character that will appeal to those who enjoy fragrances with a distinctive personality.
The name Fleur de Minuit translates as “midnight flower” and sets a special mood for the composition.
It combines juicy blackcurrant, expressive hibiscus, and cool sea moss — contrasting nuances that create the feeling of an evening garden by the water.
Fleur de Minuit opens with the fruity freshness of blackcurrant. Its tart, slightly astringent nuance gives the fragrance a dynamic quality and immediately adds individuality to the composition.
Hibiscus then comes to the forefront. The floral note softens the fruit’s juiciness and gives the fragrance an expressive, slightly exotic accent.
As a result, Fleur de Minuit does not come across as a simple sweet fruity perfume: it has floral depth and a distinct graphic quality.
Sea moss creates a cooler, earthy-mossy dimension. It adds composure, a damp freshness, and a sense of natural space to the composition.
This combination is especially interesting on the skin, where the fruity, floral, and mossy nuances may alternate depending on the temperature and individual skin chemistry.
Fleur de Minuit is presented as unisex, so it can be chosen regardless of gender preferences.
The fragrance is suitable for those looking for a noticeable eau de parfum with a fruity-floral character and a cool mossy accent.
In terms of sillage intensity, the composition belongs to the very strong category. This is an important consideration when choosing it: Fleur de Minuit is best applied sparingly, especially indoors.
No precise recommendations for the number of sprays on skin or clothing are provided for this fragrance, so the dosage should be adjusted gradually, guided by your own perception and the surrounding environment.
There is no information about Fleur de Minuit’s release year, collection, or perfumer, so the fragrance can best be assessed by its olfactory profile and stated characteristics.
In the context of Lothantique, this release continues the French perfumery tradition in which natural motifs are given a modern, easily understood expression.
Those drawn to the idea of a fruity-floral fragrance with noticeable sillage may want to take a closer look at Guerlain Champs Elysees Eau de Parfum.
For further comparison, you can also consider Guerlain Champs Elysees Eau de Toilette and Morgan Sweet Paradise: these fragrances offer different interpretations of the floral and fruity styles.

The database does not distinguish separate top, middle, and base notes for Fleur de Minuit: the listed ingredients belong to a blended composition.
It contains black currant, hibiscus, and sea moss.
Black currant adds a juicy fruity accent with a characteristic tart astringency. Hibiscus supports the floral character and makes it more expressive.
Sea moss adds a cool, earthy-mossy nuance, giving the composition depth and contrast.
Overall, the Fleur de Minuit pyramid combines fruity, floral, and earthy mossy nuances.
