GUCCI Flora Gorgeous Orchid Eau De Perfume
In the ever-evolving world of fine fragrance, Gucci‘s Flora Gorgeous Orchid emerges as a daring testament to olfactory innovation, courtesy of master perfumer Marie Salamagne. This new creation from the luxury fashion house is not merely a scent; it is a collision of contrasts, a celebration of both light and depth, sensuality and liveliness, that began with a singular vision: “The original idea was to create a super addictive fragrance for a woman,” says Salamagne. “I wanted her not to be resisted by anybody…she could attract anyone.”
At the heart of Flora Orchid lies a masterful blend of two distinct vanillas, each contributing to a tapestry of olfactory richness. One vanilla is a traditional absolute, while the other is an innovative extract that preserves the raw essence of the bean. “It is a way to extract the vanilla which allows us not to use solvents not to heat the vanilla, which makes it super close to nature and more powerful,” Salamagne explains. This novel approach creates a aroma that is both potent and profoundly natural.
Complementing the delectable vanilla duo is a bespoke ozonic accord, described by Salamagne as “minimal, salty, and very luminous.” This ingredient infuses the fragrance with a breath of fresh air, cutting through the dense sweetness of vanilla with its crisp, airy quality. The top notes of Flora Orchid are equally compelling, featuring the dewy sweetness of orange flower, a lively splash of pink pepper and a playful touch of citrus. The combination creates a radiant, solar effect – a joyful burst that introduces the fragrance with a sunny disposition.
