Abadie even says a French man would give his mistress a different scent than his wife. “I would imagine for the mistress’ fragrance to be more ‘coquine’ as Sylvie would call it — richer, a more seductive scent perhaps with notes of amber.” For the wife, though, a “fresher, sweeter, warmer scent” would be more appropriate. “Perhaps with notes of peonies and vanilla.”
