Flore Carolina Herrera for women

WOW! This has become VERY difficult to find. I actually called several websites that showed it was in stock still.....and was told, "Ooops. We don't really have that anymore." I even ordered on eBay, only to be emailed by the seller with, "Oh, that was an automatic relisting, we haven't had that scent in a long time."

I finally stopped trying to find the best price for this and just bit the bullet and ordered whatever six bottles I could get my hands on. I even called all my perfume "outlets" at the malls by me and even they don't have it anymore.

I just hope the bottles I am getting are not already past their prime. After all, if this scent has not been produced in a few years.....well, then the bottles I am getting are ALREADY a few years old. But I had to grab it up.

If anyone else loves this, I suggest you stock up on whatever you can. It's pretty much gone.

This was my spring scent in the 90`s. How could I forget how gorgeous is this perfect floral.

This is the "vamp" version of dioríssimo.

It really stands out, but it isn´t agressive, due to its perfect composition. On the other way around, it´s highly seductive. Just some minutes with this scent around ...and you will notice the real "joie de vivre".

This scent is made for a woman, who isn´t afraid to be happy, and to show it, in a very elegant way.

I just purchased it, and it´s a daytime scent for me.
But I can perfectly picture this scent in a spring/summer romantic evening.

A dream!

At first spritz I thought "yuck." Too strong and way too overpowering. However, when you let this perfume dry down it becomes something much nicer than the initial blast it starts off as. To me, this smells like the white bar soap you find in swanky hotel rooms, which isn't a bad thing. It doesn't smell cheap. On the contrary, it smells quite expensive. I could see a very classy lady wearing this and being quite happy with it. One of the nicer white floral perfumes I've smelled. The scent manages to be quite fresh and modern without smelling old fashioned or outdated which is no small feat for such a floral perfume. A very clean smelling fragrance for the confident woman. Also not to be overlooked is the actual bottle itself. It is high quality indeed. Heavy, well made and very beautiful. Would look lovely sitting on top of a woman's vanity. Now that this perfume is discontinued I'm sure it's not the easiest to find but if you are lucky enough to come across it, do yourself a favor and give it a try!

I remember of 90's.

I love.

This perfume is ALIVE!

Flore is not for weak, damsel in distress type girls. This is a woman with a strong and vibrant personality. She is fun, captivating, bold, feminine, colorful and an extrovert. She is able to handle all sorts of scandals and crowds, her laugh will penetrate present souls and her charisma is undeniable. This is an all out, lets throw a ball fragrance! She is not a quiet, stay in the same place guest of the soiree...... she is the soiree. The only thing keeping this woman from taking over the world and inviting the rest of the neighborhood to the party is the musk and the woodsy notes.

A little amount of this potion will get you very far. Do not overspray in presence of nature because you will be followed by persistent bees enamored with FLORE's flower power.

This is one of the most exotic perfume I have smelt. It is a rich multidimensional fragrance that seems to last for ever. When I place it on my skin, it leaves a fresh floral trail of beautiful quality of white flowers. The price is a bargain.I will need to stock up on this, because excellent perfumes tend to be discontinued. This perfume has gone under the radar, but I think it is one of the best perfumes ever made. I would wear this on a date, where you like to impress, but use it sparingly, or at a wedding. While the bottle is unconventional the perfume I think is devine, complex and quite original. As a perfume collector this is a MUST HAVE fragrance for women who are confident, bold,creative,like classic and style. When I wear this I feel I have just walked into a beautiful white floral garden with different heady fragrances. A true gem!!!

Very strong, give me headaches!

I bought this as a blind buy on the strength of the reviews I've read and I am not disappointed. At first spray it is an abundance of white flowers with Lily-of-the-Valley as the dominant scent. Definitely not a sweet or pretty fragrance to me- it has vastly more character than that. It is a bouquet of lilies really with a green freshness that tempers its sweetness. It settles to sun-warmed fragrance that is elegant and refined. Absolutely beautiful on rainy days.

i love this. im still looking for something similar if anybody can help me (hablo español) sorry for my english.

ya lo consegui, tarde, tengo otra edad y no me quedaba como a los 20

This summer, I have been drawn to florals with a presence, and Flore is certainly one of them. Apply with a light hand, one or two sprays (I can get away with 3) and you are enveloped in lovely flowers. I particularly get lily of the valley which I love. Aldehydes are very muted, actually non existant on me. I do not get fruits either. Just a warm blend of flowers with lily of the valley in the forefront.

Longevity and sillage are magnificent. I find this reminds me of Jessica McClintock Jessica McClintock quite a bit. Except that Jessica McClintock has a cooling note in it; Flore is a warmer fragrance. There is something very womanly about Flore.

Smells like sweet pea flowers.

Simply put how I feel a woman should smell like.

Very interesting fresh and powerful floral perfume... balancing very well between flowers and fruits to get final fresh overall smell. I love the touch of bitterness... I think it comes from Lilac and Lily-of-the valley ... than fruity notes, bergamot...wood.
Flore is not like an innocent angel fragrance, it's rather strong and outstanding, but still very feminine.
Gorgeous perfume, gorgeous bottle!

Let me tell you, I have tried and tried to love this! I have a couple bottles of the bath wash and that makes my skin smell great and it perfumes that whole section of my little home. So naturally I went out and got a bottle of the edp. It smells wonderful in the bottle, but once it hits my skin.....UUGHH!!!
I don't mind aldehydes, and the florals are definitely there, but so is this mushy putrid fruit mixed with harsh soap odor. Its just too much for me to get past. I actually get sick to my stomach. It takes a good hour for that to "burn off". THEN its a LOVELY fragrance!! But I'm so queasy and mentally on edge that I can't really enjoy it. Flore and I are NOT a good match chemically. But it smells great as a room fragrance, so this wasn't a total loss. I recommend trying this one on your skin before you actually purchase.... BIG TIME!

I recived this as a present from my dad some years ago. WTF were you thinking dad??? this is by far the most disgusting sh#t I've ever tried, in fact every time I smell it I vomit(really). Long story short, too strong, heavy, headachy, granny, flowery and so on... It has nothing to do with Nina Ricci's Fleur, to me at least.

For lovers of Diorissimo and Nina Ricci Fleur de Fleurs, this is a gorgeous member of the same family! And not the shy member either! I have it in the largest size bottle edp and I love love love it!

Flore is the loud and colorful woman at a party that you cannot help but love. Even if she wears outrageous clothes, sings with a false voice and dances on the table, you cannot stop admiring her joie de vivre, her daring attitude and her fantastic laugh. Somewhere, inside of you, all you want is to be her.
I was surprised that somebody here described it as a lilac perfume?!? - sorry - it is green, green, green lily-of-the-valley.

At first I was not sure if I ever can wear something like this.The initial blast was very unapologetic, harsh and boozy - like a pile of exotic fruit went bad. Aldehydes did not help either, adding a metallic screechy note to the whole cocktail. I decided to give it more time and I did not regret.
It is a sharp but elegant floral, that reminded be both of Anais Anais and the long lost Isa.Flore is more serious, more mature than any of the two and is a gift for a brave floral lover. If you are used to aldehydic scents that take their time to develop, Flore may be your lucky find.
The staying power is superb; it lasted through the evening and night on skin, and for me it`s a sort of a victory.

I purchased Flore online solely on the basis of its description and am I ever glad that I took the chance. If you like an elegant, feminine floral fragrance, this is for you. I don't pick up lilacs at all ( but, if I did, great, because I love the scent of lilacs ). The distinct note in Flore is lily-of-the-valley. Flore reminds me very much of Christian Dior's Diorissimo ... at a fraction of the cost and it's longer lasting, too. This is a strictly floral fragrance. I don't detect a fruity note nor anything sharp, sour and metallic, as other reviewers have suggested.

It's a classic lilacs perfume that i used in the past. I liked very much but i repeat 'in the past'. It's very lasting and captures you at the first moment that you smell it. If you like a classic floral scent this is one option.

I think FLORE is one of the most lovely florals I've ever smelled. It's the kind of fragrance you want to feel in a close girlfriend or in a very special women (like your mother), the immediate feeling is kind of supporting fairy (that's why I said you want to smell this in a special women). The aldehydes are very subtle and they work nicely with the fruity note, then a warm rain of flowers will cover you -with kisses of sandalwood-. Any kind of girl can wear it (it's ageless)....... but I will warn you: Don't expect your love one have a frantic passion episode if you're wearing FLORE, instead you will have a person in a PERMANENT huge-kiss syndrom
