BDK Parfums Bouquet de Hongrie

The Bottle

BDK Parfums Bouquet de Hongrie comes in a tall, mostly rectangular bottle with rounded corners, a broad flat-looking base, and pale pink liquid visible through it. The large glossy-looking black cap takes up much of the upper area, while the right-set white label and dark border sharpen the contrast. It is conventional, though neatly composed.

Original or Clone

Serge Majoullier’s credited authorship is the strongest reason to buy Bouquet de Hongrie as the original. Its fruity, sweet, rose-led character has prompted an interpretation from another house, a modest sign that this release has attracted attention beyond its own house. That does not make the interpretation an unreasonable choice; it simply leaves the original with the clearer claim to the named work. For readers who care about who composed a fragrance, that distinction makes the original worth choosing.
