Formula #217 *** Dupe of Narcisse
Narcisse is a bold and opulent floral that captivated the fragrance world upon its launch in 1992. Created under the Chloé brand, this scent was a striking departure from the light and airy perfumes of the time, embracing a rich, deeply feminine intensity.
Built around the intoxicating sweetness of narcissus, this fragrance blooms with lush florals like rose and jasmine, wrapped in a warm, spicy embrace of cinnamon, vanilla, and amber. It was a statement scent—luxurious, powerful, and unmistakably sensual. Though now discontinued, Narcisse remains a cherished memory for those who adored its lush, romantic depth, a reminder of a time when perfumes weren’t afraid to be bold.
Here is a brief history of the original Narcisse.
This is a discontinued perfume, the original is not available anywhere!

While this dupe is definitely NOT Narcisse, I do appreciate its similarities. I’ve not been able to find anything this close to the scent. The scent is long-lasting, but not overpowering. Thank you!
I bought it for my mother. My father has dementia and doesn’t remember much. He remembered that fragrance😃 it brought back memories. I think they nailed it.
It is so close to the original
Narcisse is like no other scent. This 217 is NOTHING like Narcisses. It's not even close. Not sure why they haven't nailed the scent by now. $32 later, it's a failed attempt to create a beautiful scent like Narcisse by Chloe. Please reach out to me and we can discuss.. There is nothing floral about this scent!! It's missing smething or has too much of a dry scent. It should be an Oriental Floral fragrance with a complex blend of notes. The top notes feature a vibrant combination of orange blossom, marigold, peach, pineapple, violet, apricot, and sometimes bergamot, creating a sweet and fruity opening.
The heart of the fragrance is dominated by rich floral notes, including narcissus, gardenia, jasmine, rose, carnation, and spices, which add depth and complexity.
The base notes provide a warm and sensual finish, composed of sandalwood, musk, vanilla, cedar, tolu balsam, and sometimes amber or oak moss, contributing to a lasting and comforting impression.
Close to original but not quitedisappointed
