Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
Potent opening of crisp, buttery green neroli with a chewy sweetness that gave me a headache in the summer. The fruity touch, especially the apple, provides that initial sweetness. After 15 minutes, the intensity drops, leaving a bouquet of powdery white flowers where the neroli dominates. Projection is good for the first 2 hours and sillage in bursts until 12 hours. It didn’t convince me at first, but with wear, I’ve appreciated it more. It’s floral, flirty, feminine, and versatile for any season that isn’t too cold, ideal for the shoulder seasons. Pleasant: 7/10 Interesting: 6/10 Versatile: 8/10 Original: 6/10
Very jasminey pear, rich and luminous. The white flowers take centre stage once the pear evaporates, leaving a pleasant sweet trail. The neroli notes are discreet among gardenias and jasmine. It smells classic due to the ingredients and because it’s that familiar floral scent we always find in perfumery. Florence reminds me hugely of Amarige by Givenchy, perhaps a bit whiter, but ultimately it’s the same thing.
It’s just gardenia with a little bit of jasmine. Very pleasant aroma; the rest of the notes go unnoticed. Medium but effective fixation for about 3-5 hours, with a trail that radiates beyond the arm. It’s not a summer scent due to the base notes. It’s slightly mature, fulfils the floral brief, and is for those who like white flowers.
Florence is a fruity and floral fragrance that is sharp and perturbing on the opening… It’s not unpleasant, just not what I was looking for. It dries down and I slightly detect the gardenia and something vague and sweet. In this stage, it reminds me of Michael Kors and Kim Kardashian. My bottle is 15ml along with others from Tocca, not for me.
