Floral perfumes for women

The floral family has been at the heart of feminine perfumery for over a century: because flowers have an olfactory language that no other ingredient can reproduce. A Bulgarian rose smells different from an absolute rose. Sambac jasmine is sweeter and fruitier than grandiflorum. Peony brings freshness; iris brings powder and velvet.

The four types of floral for women

Pure florals put flowers front and centre on musk bases: the most luminous and transparent. Fruity florals combine peony, freesia or rose with red fruits and citrus. Oriental florals wrap the bouquet in amber and vanilla for more depth and longevity. Woody florals add sandalwood or cedar without overshadowing the flowers.

Ingredients that define floral perfumery

The rose — Bulgarian, Turkish or absolute — is the most worked ingredient in the history of perfumery. Jasmine brings density and sensuality. Gardenia and magnolia add creamy white notes. Peony and freesia give fruity freshness. Ylang-ylang adds a warm, exotic touch. Iris has a delicate and unmistakable olfactory profile.

For what occasion

Fresh and fruity florals are ideal for everyday wear and spring-summer. Oriental and woody florals come into their own in autumn and winter. Pure florals work all year. Almost 300 references, produced in Spain, Eau de Parfum concentration.
