Floral
In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, almost all perfumes were florals. Like real flowers, there's a huge range, and they're prone to intermarrying with other families, which is why you'll hear about "floral greens" and "florientals."
Fracas de Robert Piguet
This has been a popular fragrance since the 1940s and is rich and heady with tuberose and jasmine.
(Van Gelder, Lindsy. "All in the Family." Allure Oct. 2011: 263)
Sexy Scents to Spice up your Scent Life - Sexy Classics: "Classic fragrances are powerful because they're made to be recognized and to last all day," says Malle. These four were each the first of a kind, and they all exude warmth and sensuality -- but it very different ways. [Perfumer Frederic] Malle explains... Fracas (1948):
"Everything revolves around dark and mysterious tuberose. All the other facets amplify tuberose's effect. It has a milky smell, as do certain fruits, so bergamot and mandarin were added to exaggerate and sweeten the milkiness" (sephora.com).
(Edgar, Jolene. "Sexy Scents." Allure Dec. 2010.)
