These days it seems there are incalculably more plum perfumes than there ever were plums on the old plum tree. In my large collection I have an uncounted number, but only a handful stand out from the crowd. They are my choices for best plum perfumes. The most memorable, without a doubt, is the original Rochas Femme, the masterpiece of "prunalic" delight that launched my obsession with plum perfumes.  Another of my best plum perfumes is What we know today as Frederic Malle Le Parfum de Therese was a scent that was, for years, worn, exclusively by the perfumer's wife. Le Parfum de Therese was finally revealed to the public by Frederic Malle in 1999, three years after Edmond Roudnitska's passing. Christopher Sheldrake, in collaboration with Pierre Bourdon (Edmond Roudnitska's student), offered the world a ground- breaking, fragrant take on raw sexuality – the 1992 Shiseido Féminité du Bois, DSH Perfumes Mirabella and Dior Hypnotic Poison round out my top five best plum perfumes.
