description

The coveted jewel in the crown of Piguet’s glittering collection, 1948 game-changer Fracas, is a long-time trendsetter. At the time, legendary perfumer, Germaine Cellier, sought to create a scent that would make its wearer feel like a bombshell; one that would leave an unsettling effect on everyone that encountered it. With unmistakable and unrivaled opulent tuberose and jasmine accords, this lush and creamy concoction clings to a woman’s skin and warms with her unique chemistry. Unlike many traditional white florals, Fracas is dark and luscious. Rich accents of sandalwood and delicate musk enhance the brilliance and complexity. Its legacy and unrivaled artistry has earned Fracas a proud position in the Fragrance Foundation Hall of Fame. Top: Bergamot, Mandarin. Mid: Jasmine, Tuberose, Gardenia. Base: Musk, Sandalwood.

I have found a scent that I will always have around. This is so good. It starts out with a burst of orange blossom and tuberose. This is a thick, LUSH, wrap around you tuberose. It is *that*...

Fracas started out divinely sensual, rich and heady in a good way. I could see how this could be a very addicting fragrance if it works with your chemistry. Unfortunately for me, after about an...

This fragrance has the longest staying power of any I've ever tried. It's not for sensitive noses!! All you need is a little mist and you're good to go for the entire day. The tuberose is very...

I received a Neiman's catalog some time ago, and I smelled this lush, sweet, floral as soon as I opened the mailbox, it was almost deja vu (it smelled some comfortingly familiar). I immediately...

Fracas is a classic white floral with tuberose in center stage. It is a string of pearls, it is a Hermes Kelly bag, it is a Hubert de Givenchy sheath. At Barney's you'll catch it on the sales clerk...

If you like extremely lush and opulent tuberose scents, you'll love Fracas. I prefer slightly lighter tuberose fragrances myself, with more 'modern' notes such as Number One by Parfums de Nicolaï...

I like Fracas. It reminds me of Blonde by Versace, only much better, smoother.

I find Fracas to be the best tuberose scent on the market. Do I wear it? No, too ovebearing strong floral for my taste. Fracas is a very popular scent amongst celebrities, such as Kim Basinger,...

Pros: Beautiful fragrance! Classic. This lifts my spirits when I wear it. Cons: Fragrance disappears quickly. My boyfriend thinks it smells like soap.

Great bottle and a great scent. I'd probably love this more if I didn't practically worship Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier's Tubereuse as I do and that sort of fills my white floral quota. It's just...

A great tuberose scent. I also get lots of compliments when I wear this. I only wish the bottle was slightly different. It's dark black and I can't see when I'm running low.

I cant quite decide if I like this or not. I dont think I would repurchase it though. I like the Gardenia I detect in it but hate that I also detect a scent like suntanning oil (is that maybe the...
