And what can I say… it is a jewel, unconventional. Each skin fixes it differently; it is refined and not invasive at all.
I just bought it; quite expensive but I deliberated until I decided. It smells very much of violets, like those purple hard sweets, sweet but not annoying. My doubt is that it leaves an oily trail on the skin, although I bought it at a well-known department store.
I sensed a slightly powdery but delicious aroma. The violet scent stands out quite a bit, reminding me of Guerlain’s Insolence, though this one is more delicate. It is a safe fragrance, suits any occasion: modest, elegant, and soft. And have I mentioned that the bottle is absolutely divine?
I agree that at first the violets are noticeable, perhaps softened by a powdery jasmine, but that lasts only a short while. Then the gooseberries and ripe, acidic berries appear, also powdery due to the iris. The final result is ripe, powdery berries with a discreet touch of iris. It is very sophisticated. On my skin it lasts a little longer than average and the projection is timid. Although the blend and longevity didn’t appeal to me, its place in my collection was won solely by the bottle, a wonderful example from Van Cleef & Arpels.
The bottle is far superior to the perfume.
A floral-fruity fragrance with a subtle delicacy that avoids being cloying. A balanced blend of berries, red fruits, violet, jasmine, iris, and rose. The opening is fruity with ripe and acidic berries that later blend with the softness of the violet and a discreet powdery hint of iris. A distinguished and elegant aroma that is noticeable without being overwhelming. I think its sweetness would reach its peak splendour in the colder months. And besides, the bottle is a jewel, literally, a masterpiece worthy of Van Cleef & Arpels.
I bought it blind because it was half price (normally it’s expensive). The packaging is gorgeous with that fairy concept; the bottle could have been more striking for that price, but the cap with the perfect, sensual, and ethereal fairy wins all the applause. I don’t understand why people compare it to Insolence; apart from the violet, I see no similarities. Insolence is dense, with strong longevity and a wild sillage, whereas Feerie smells more of rose with an acid-sweet fruit, like those hard sweets sold in Mexico. To my nose, with the rose standing out and medium-low sillage and longevity, it reminds me more of Berdoues’ Clair de Rose; it smells soapy, not powdery. I like it, but I wouldn’t buy it again if it weren’t half price.
What a lovely surprise upon opening it: the indigo blue glass and the putty-finish chrome cap are pure luxury, nothing cheap plastic, almost a table ornament. It smells of sweet berries and wild fruits with fresh touches, very elegant red roses like Bulgari Rose, well-blended blackberries, and notable wood, though I didn’t notice the iris much. A jewel for those who want to make a difference.
When I sprayed it, I thought surprised it smelled like some kind of caramel. After drying, I concluded it reminds me of violet candies with a small touch of makeup in the base. It is very hard to explain, but it is definitely a special and charming aroma.
Spraying it, I was surprised to think it smelled like some kind of caramel. Once it dried, it confirmed a scent of caramelised violets with a hint of makeup in the background; it’s hard to explain, but it’s a special and charming aroma.
I bought it because the bottle is wonderful. I have liked it a lot, but without being enchanted. I will have to give it another chance. It is a fine, delicate, and mysterious aroma… but I don’t like the base notes and I think after two hours the scent that remains is not my style.
I adore the way of life it speaks without words; it says more than all our languages. And in this case, the landscape where ‘The Fairy’ lives speaks better than the nymph. The forest of ‘Feerie’ is bicoloured: the moment you step between your rough violet trunks, I am invaded by a citrus scent: violent clementines with peel and purple pulp shake me until almost shivering. I continue walking on your purple carpet and caress your bushes, which embrace me with branches and berries. I look up at a cruel sapphire sky that softens with the tone of your leaves and pink flowers, which were red but dissolve and pour their scent, fading into pink. Now the landscape changes: a clearing appears, the light between your canopies bathes a river of amethysts and violets… Feerie, are you not a fairy, truth? Feerie is immersing yourself in the river of your forest, with berry-stained legs and feet in iris sandals, floating among crystals and flowers; roses and violets, without stems but with roots, being perfectly imperfect.
Its presentation awakens fantasy, charm, femininity, and innocence in that beautiful faceted blue bottle that looks like a precious stone with a flower and a branch with a silver fairy. It is a jewel, more memorable and adorable than its delicate fragrance, which is good and more enchanting the more you wear it. It is a woody floral with a citrus opening that blends between berries, then flowers, and a woody base. It reveals soft violets with refreshing green notes, like pleasant herbs, accompanied by flowers and a fruity accord of tangerines and blackcurrant that give a sweet freshness. In the heart, a velvety rose stands out with a touch of jasmine, accompanied by violets and iris; sometimes intense, sometimes subtle, giving that talc-like, elegant, and sophisticated accord. Everything rests on a woody base of vetiver, where the sillage is more intense, creamy, and beautiful. It is a fresh and slightly sweet perfume that does not invade or tire; its longevity and sillage are moderate, so it suits any occasion and all year round, especially in temperate climates. In summary: recommended (and eager to know its other fairy versions).
My most recent acquisition and I am very happy with it. The opening is clearly fruity: sweet and juicy berries, gooseberries and blackberries, along with a tangerine and the acidity of the berries, bring freshness and avoid being cloying. Then appears a combination of velvety roses and violets that, with the iris, become softly talcum-powdered, very feminine and seductive. The base is a soft, earthy vetiver, slightly woody with oak moss that balances everything, composing this enchanted forest. Fruits, flowers, and woods. It is very similar to others, but with notable differences: it is more delicate and youthful than Guerlain’s Insolence (which I perceive as potent and overwhelming), not as childish or suited to cold as Britney Spears’ Midnight Fantasy (which is dense due to vanilla and amber). Nevertheless, it has that gummy candy imprint. It is closer to Lancôme’s Tresor Midnight Rose, with that little acidic touch and elegance, without the sadness this latter evokes in me. It has the best of all: soft sillage, good longevity (up to 6 hours on me), intimate, elegant, and versatile for any occasion except very hot summers. It is not dark despite the colour, but youthful and radiant. Separate mention for the packaging: cobalt blue box, another dark box with rings, it opens like a little cabinet and inside is the dazzling bottle. I need an instruction manual. The faceted midnight blue glass prevents seeing the liquid and is perfect for an empty shelf. The cap is a flower with a silver fairy. It would be better if the figurine detached to use as a brooch, although some suggest using the branches as a ring holder or throwing weapon. Let each one use it as they wish. I plan to enjoy it and its bottle with all my effort. Hehe, and if I find a good deal, thinking about Feerie Rubis…
My last purchase and I am very happy with it. It starts clearly fruity: sweet, juicy berries like currants and blackberries, alongside a tangerine and the acidity of the berries, which add freshness and prevent it from being cloying. Then appear velvety roses and violets that, with the iris, become softly talc-like, very feminine and seductive. The base is a soft, earthy vetiver, slightly woody with oak moss that balances everything and completes this enchanted forest. Fruits, flowers, and woods. It is very similar to others, but with notable differences: it is more delicate and youthful than Guerlain’s Insolence (which I find potent and tiring), and not as childish or cold-weather as Britney Spears’ Midnight Fantasy (which is denser due to vanilla and amber). Still, it has that gummy candy imprint. It is closer to Lancôme’s Tresor Midnight Rose, with that little acidic touch and elegance, but without the sadness that perfume evokes in me. It has the best of all without the nuances I hate. With soft and delicate sillage, it has good longevity, up to six hours on me. It is neither childish nor mature, it is intimate, elegant, and versatile for any occasion, except extreme heat. It is not dark despite the colour, but youthful and radiant. Mention separately the packaging: cobalt blue box, another dark box you pull out by rings, and inside an urn with the bottle. A user manual is missing. The bottle is a beauty, midnight blue faceted crystal that prevents seeing the liquid, perfect for display. The cap is a flower with a silver fairy. It would be better if the figurine could be removed to use as a brooch, although some suggest using the branches as a ring holder or throwing weapon. Let everyone use it as they wish. I plan to enjoy both the perfume and the bottle with all my might. Hehehe, and if I find a deal, I’ll already be thinking about Feerie Rubis.
I was curious and found it in a shop today. I couldn’t try it on, but smelling it made me want to buy it. It was a breath of fresh air, something different from that army of gourmands or amber vanillas everyone uses. It smells of violet, followed by currants and berries, a distinct aroma. The bottle is another matter: it’s refreshing when a house cares about design and doesn’t just put a clear rectangle. The blue bottle is nice, but the fairy-topped cap is lovely and well-finished. It paints a picture of a great perfume; I hope it doesn’t disappoint me in longevity and projection.
Curious about this perfume, I found it today in a lucky shop. I couldn’t spray it on my arm, but to my misfortune, I smelled it and now I want it. It felt like stepping out of the ordinary, away from the army of gourmands, vanillas with amber and woods; I think I know what I mean. A different scent, an underused flower, the violet, followed by gooseberries and berries. The bottle is another story: it’s refreshing when a house values a good container, reviving old design traditions, not just clear rectangles. The blue bottle is lovely, but the cap (the fairy) is exquisite; you can tell the quality and fine finish. It looks like it should be excellent. I hope it doesn’t disappoint in longevity and sillage.
It smells just like Miss Charming by Juliette Has a Gun, only weaker. I like both for everyday wear; they are very easy to wear and I find them charming.
I tried it and it is subtly beautiful, delicate and reserved, with that soft floral-fruity touch. It is very discreet. I prefer more marked scents; on my skin it was very soft and didn’t last long, but it remains elegant. I am sure it could look excellent on someone else.
It is extremely sweet and fruity; on my skin I don’t detect any violets or roses, only fruit. If you like sweet perfumes, this is for you. It has good longevity, sillage, and many compliments. For me, the best part is the bottle, which is absolutely gorgeous.
I must confess my expectations for Feerie were a little mixed. I’ve read reviews calling it gorgeous and others dismissing it as simple; I understand both viewpoints. I’m not sure if it’s been reformulated, but on my skin it’s pure floral: nothing powdery, just herbal and deep. It opens with a touch of red fruits, but then it’s just violet and rose, faintly reminiscent of Lolita Lempicka and more so of Guerlain’s Insolence. What I love most is its depth; it delivers on its enchanted forest concept, feeling potent and sweetened, very atmospheric. The problem is it feels somewhat hollow, like a forest with pretty lights but no real life, making it feel a bit incomplete. It’s not innovative nor does it evoke dreams, but it has excellent conceptual focus. The bottle is beautiful in person, though impractical and perhaps too flashy; I’d dare say more care was devoted to the bottle than the perfume itself. In short, it’s pleasant, moderate, and has an autumnal air.
I bought it blind, just for the beautiful bottle. I found it in the perfumery in my town without a tester, what anxiety not being able to smell it! But I had been curious for a while. I had read that it resembled Insolence and had doubts, as I do not like it and neither do powdery scents; the violet and iris gave me distrust. I thought if I did not like it, my mother surely would, as she loves those flowers. But oh surprise! I loved it, was it the fairy in her bottle? I enjoy discovering scents outside my style and this is one. It is mysterious, delicate, very natural; there is no artificiality here, there is a forest with beautiful flowers and rich fruits, just as is on the bottle, combined excellently. The vetiver helps the base so the iris is not so powdery and dominant, giving it a herbaceous touch, and together they do a good job. I do not recommend buying blind, it is a perfume you either like or you don’t, it is risky. I was lucky and I am very happy to have it.

Wonderful fragrance. Lasts a very long time. It resembles Cacharel’s Promesse.
An ode to the violet. I was looking for a floral for spring, the bottle enchanted me, and I decided to try it. The beginning is intense: the violet and the berries are very noticeable, reminding me of childhood violet-flavoured candies; then it loses intensity and the flowers appear, maintaining the absolute protagonism of the violet and becoming a bit powdery. It is a beautiful perfume, it does not resemble any I have smelled. It is feminine and romantic, but not outdated; I imagine it with gauze, velvet, or fine lamé, in violet or lilac. I see it on Arwen’s or Evangeline Lily’s dressing table.
My mother used to say that in her youth, whoever found ‘their perfume’ used it as a personal signature. I was puzzled because I love having many and exploring… Until in 2009 my mother gifted me my first Féerie and I understood what she meant. Its opening is intense, highlighting violets and that sweet-and-sour taste of red berries. In the final phase, the violets remain and the Bulgarian rose barely peeks through, a subtle and delicate combination. The longevity on my skin is 9 to 10 hours, the trail is wide at first and then moderate. I never go unnoticed. The bottle deserves special mention: it’s beautiful, refined, deep blue and ethereal, representing the fairy concept. I love this perfume; every time I see it I try to buy it because in my country it usually disappears and reappears years later.
My mother used to say that in her youth, a woman who found ‘her perfume’ only used that fragrance, turning it into her signature. I was puzzled because I love having and using many perfumes; there is so much to explore… One day, in 2009, I was given my first Feerie and then I understood what my mother told me.

Have you ever bought a perfume just for the bottle? Here is the example. After a great disappointment months ago with Chopard’s Wish due to its reformulation, I looked for something where the violet was the protagonist, and this perfume intrigued me for its bottle, worthy of fairy tales and fantasy like Middle-earth. I feared they would give more care to the bottle than the composition, but luckily I could try it and I loved it; the notes appealed to me (I never follow others’ tastes because my nose is particular) and I jumped in. This beautiful composition does not have that loud violet of Guerlain’s Insolence (which I love), but undoubtedly it is the note that stands out most. The opening is fresh and fruity with tangerine, blackcurrants, and red berries; those forest fruits with the tangerine give an acidic and fruity accord that reminds me of a pink grapefruit. This initial stage lasts about half an hour, and although it is delicate, it projects quite a bit, but it calms down afterwards. This citrus-fruit accord with the violet (which is felt from start to finish) gives way to a floral note of juicy, velvety rose accompanied by a powdery iris that reminds me of childhood candies and bubblegum that had a violet flavour. From here on, the fragrance becomes linear and that violet candy scent accompanies you on the skin for hours; it is not loud but it is felt and gives an enchanted halo worthy of Galadriel. In my opinion, it can be used all year and is versatile; although the comparison with candies might seem youthful, it is not, it is refined. I already had a place for it in my collection with just the bottle, and now that I know it, I think it will always be there.
Feerie, the jewel every woman wants. You want to hold it in your hands to contemplate the fairy up close, touch it, and appreciate every delicate detail. You stop, thoughtful, just like the fairy on her branch holding her little face. The faceted blue glass is the next thing you see, and perfection becomes tangible. Then you move to the scent, expecting a journey to that magical world of fairies in a forest of glowing flowers, but it doesn’t happen; instead, disappointment appears without understanding that exterior perfection. Feerie by Van Cleef & Arpels: glimpse its departure with talcum-dusted violets, barely sweet with some berries and red fruits surfacing in that imagined forest; then the talcum suddenly fades, softening it in minutes until it sits right on the skin. Thus, the fairy tale ends. A pity for Van Cleef, which bet on packaging while forgetting the olfactory charm. Do I recommend buying blind? Yes, only if you are a collector and you are interested in the design, not the fragrance. Does it resemble Guerlain’s Insolence? Not at all, it doesn’t even reach its heels. Does it smell like a magical perfume? Yes, but like Disney princesses that girls buy after a birthday party.

Feerie (2008): a very elegant violet. It reminds me of Cacharel’s Promesse (2005), but I prefer Feerie for its powdery violet with iris and a candied touch; to me, it smells like raspberry, even if they don’t say so. I think it resembles Guerlain’s Insolence a lot, but it is fresher, lighter, and more youthful, ideal for girls under 20, whereas Insolence is deeper, more mysterious, and has more nuances.
Van Cleef, what were you thinking deciding to remove this marvel? I don’t believe it is truly off the market. The longevity is monstrous, the trail is huge, and it smells like an antique doll, somewhere between Barbie and bubblegum. It is a perfumed work of art and the packaging is exquisite; my mother keeps the empties as decoration. What happened? Why is this beauty no longer sold? I don’t understand.
What a beast of a perfume! I don’t understand why they discontinued it. The trail is incredible: long, deep, soft, and pleasant; surely many people asked what I was wearing. The bottle is a work of art. The only flaw is that they no longer sell it. It is unique!
I tried it and was instantly hooked. It smells sweet and dark, like berry jam, before the violet emerges. I bought it for the bottle and ended up truly loving it.
