Ma Griffe Perfume by Carven, Delight in the splendor and seduction of nature’s greatest ingredients with Ma Griffe, a sensational women’s fragrance. This complex perfume combines a plethora of floral, green, spicy and earthy accords for a decadent array of scents that work harmoniously to present one epic aroma. Top notes include tart lemon, asafoetida, clary sage, gardenia, aldehydes and a mixture of green elements. At the heart are notes of ylang-ylang, jasmine, rose, orris root, lily-of-the-valley, orange blossom and powdery iris. Completing the vivacious scent are base notes of benzoin, styrax, musk, cinnamon, vetiver, oakmoss, labdanum and sandalwood. Overall, this dynamite perfume is a great accessory for any daytime ensemble, easily turning heads from every direction.

Though this divine aroma has spent decades on the market after being launched in 1946, it still remains a top seller for the French fashion house Carven. The bright green and white flacon storing the liquid is just as vibrant and refreshing as the fragrance inside. All products are original, authentic name brands. We do not sell knockoffs or imitations.

Hey, everyone, Rachel here and today, I'll be reviewing Ma Griffe by Carven-- a chypre floral, highly recommended for daytime wear in the spring and summer. This scent has a lot of lovely notes, exquisitely blended to create a woody, green and balsamic accord that define the scent. Major top notes include aldehydes and watery notes, along with clary sage. In the middle, floral notes take more of a center stage. Then in the base, vetiver and oak moss are in focus. That's all for now. Don't forget to follow Fragrance X on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, and take a moment to subscribe to our YouTube channel.

Ma Griffe reminds me of a new love!

I first was given Ma Griffe as a present when I was 17 from a young man aged 20. We had started dating just a few months earlier and been spending a lot of time together, getting closer by the day. The young man had to go away for a month and we missed each other immensely, we exchanged letters and

upon his return he presented me with my gift. We were married and years later we visited Europe and I found Ma Griffe once again. Now that young girl and her man are over 50 and have been married 35 years. I searched the internet for my favourite fragrance and was overjoyed to once again purchase that all familiar and most significant perfume, thank you.

Not like I thought it would be

I bought Ma Griffe because my Mum said she loved it,and I'd read many reviews about it which made me look forward to receiving it, but I was dissapointed when I tried it. On me it started off sharp and strong with a wet tree bark smell which after an hour or so faded to cinnamon cookies. Eventually

it settled down to old age pensioners wearing to much floral talcum powder on a hot day. My husband absolutely hates it, he said it smells of old ladies.( How he knows I don't!?) I will either give it away as a present to an elderly relative who might love it, or put it on [...]

My wife's favourite and best perfume

This is one of the very best perfumes ever created - look up its history, created by two perfumiers who had been imprisoned to reflect the joy of freedom, the fresh smells of spring and of life. It is the one perfume that smells fabulous on my good lady.

Elegant scent of greenery and flowers

Bought without zatestit. Flavor is not choking, but very elegant, delicate. Rather strong and a little daisy chain. Clearly traced green notes, oak moss, lily of the valley, leather and a bit of citrus. Top notes are a bit edgy. In the final, beautifully zapudrivayutsya. Can sit close to the kozhe.Ne youth. Very retro. When wearing them, son says - grass. But it's nice it is!

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Still my favorite!

I have been wearing this fragrance since I was 21 years old. I had an elegant roommate who used it as her signature fragrance. I loved it so much that I started wearing it. She got mad but it was worth it. Now, 43 years later, I am SO grateful to be able to order MaGriffe from FragranceX. For years, friends would scour outlet stores, etc. to try to find for me. Now I can easily order and continue smelling wonderful. I hope they remember to spray it on me when I die!
