Flora by Gucci Eau de Parfum Gucci for women

Im little disappointed coz on me it didnt last and i feel its sweet than flora not so special flora like i thought it would be

Ah, what a wonderful fluffy cloud of soft feathers this fragrance is! Instant"want"! No, it's an instant "need"! Feels like I have been craving for it, and missing Flora for my whole life even without knowing it. I'm in love!!!

I love this scent. I put this on my clothing because I got a skin reaction but love this scent too much to give it up. I love how this settles into a nice powder floral scent. I have in in both parfume and toilet. Its my new favorite.

ok, but not wow. too heavy for summer, maybe cool summer-nights. a perfume made with haste, not well rounded.

I am presently amazed at this wondrous concoction! I usually do not like Florals as they usually 'turn musty on me' but this 'Flora' is a treat to my nose and soul! She is light yet powerful enough to be noticed in a crowd. The notes blens so well into my skin that she radiates delicately around me all day. -When sprayed on my clothes and hair is when it is more noticeable.- The bottle is ever so lovely! Classy, Delicate, Youthful yet mature.. I find it looks lovely on a mirrored shelf , is elegant and easy to use. Sweet, innocent, playful yet sexy and Cuddly: this is how I see the Flora woman. Sweet cirtus greet you whith a light floral note that reminds me of Early Spring days. As it deepens to the opulent heart, a delicate Rose note emerges and remains throughout the drydown. A candied one that is in no way cloying but quite present (to me..). The base itself is dreamy, floral & still honeyed , spiced up with deep Patchouli ( dry and reminiscent of Cocoa) and smoothed over with creamy-light Sandalwood that lingers like a fine French-Milled Rose soap on my skin for several hours. Thank You Red for gifting me with that wonderful fragrance! It is soothing and delights me. Great choice my friend and thank you for suuuch al lovely swap!
Edit: How this Flora is growing on me.lol! Me, the fruity gourmand lover of honey and pralines? I ,who usually crave stong and sweet vanilla, resins, spices and opulence??? I would have passed this lovely by had it not been for dear Red who figured I might like it : well, my timeline thingamajig tells all! I seem to start the day wanting to wear 10 others fragrances and lookie: I end up Flora-lised!!! Cannot stop smelling my wrist. It is soo soothing. Shall repurchase for sure or perhaps a flanker... Uplifing indeed 7663shannon! I almost feel in love!

I cannot get enough of this beautiful scent. Unfortunatly it doe not last on my skin. Why ?? I cannot wash J'adore off and I cannot make this stay:(
This is such an uplifting, beautiful floral that never gets cloying or sweet on my skin. Love

i received a 50ml of this for my last birthday..crazily in love with it..it's divine and sweet..not as generic as some described..or overpowering

the citrusy and floral notes blend so well together, creates this deep beautiful floral sensation

personally i am not a fan of floral scent..they tend to be boring and outdated sometimes..however i find a hint of orange cake icing in this..delicious and uplifting..love it in my hair..

a warm, rich and refined floral scent..very feminine and elegant..perfect for dating nights or working days..

the bottle looks perfect and neat..always love fragrance in a glass bottle..

the EDT and EDP smell almost identical, but EDP works better, longevity and strength wise..recommend it if you are into floral scent

I really like Flora EDP, it smells delicious, vibrant, just a gorgeous soft floral. EDT was blah to my nose, EDP is way better, rich, with a wonderful note of Osmanthus mixing in nicely with the peony. Beautiful harmony of notes, I don't get much patchouli which is great. Feminine,warm, attractive, one to have for sure.

My friend have this perfume. I got the smell of it in her car. Definitely suitable for women of all ages but just not me. It's a strong floral fragrance. Such strong fragrance can give me a headache. I think this perfume is becoming a common fragrance for everyone and I don't think it's that unique anymore.

I really wanted to love this one, bought a sample size (5ml or so) to try it out. The citrus/mandarin note in this one is waay to strong and makes the scent cold and rather "perfumy". It doesn't smell natural. Maybe if they would have put a slight touch of vanilla/caramel it it to warm it up it would have been better..

Even so, it is an ok everyday scent with pretty good sillage, and I can see how so many likes it (especially citrus lovers!). But to be honest - I don't get the hype.

Too bad

EDIT: I have now come to appreciate this scent. It is very fresh indeed and perfect for daytime in school and such. I think that I didn't like this one initially because I thought that it would smell like a stronger version of Gucci Flora gorgeous gardenia, which it did not. It has a few similarities though. Flora does smell natural, but can be overwhelming if not used with a light hand. What I like most is the staying power and silage. Might even purchase a full bottle..

A fresh yet potent, fruity floral. Its sweet but not overbearingly so. I think its a pleasant scent suitable for an office job and day wear.

Its nothing remarkable imo. But it does have quality and I can see this working wonders for some women. It cant be pinned down to one age group either, as it can be youthful yet mature at once.

Im not a fruity floral gal, so its not for me. But if you want a tasteful scent that would be a crowd pleaser and you wear floral fruity scents well, check out Flora. Its unique in that its not too sweet and isnt loaded with vanilla. Vanilla is one note that seems omnipresent, and I need a break.

It's a lovely fragrance. Simple, fresh and classy. It's EDP but it's so soft... It's like an embrace from a beloved person. I feel like wearing it all the time now.

I've been using this one for well over a year now.

It may put you off at first as it starts out very strong, but once it settles down it turns into this fresh, vibrant composition of pretty florals. I can smell peonies and citruses, with a subtle note of sandalwood, which becomes more obvious as the scent dries down.

I think this is a perfect spring/summer scent, it makes me think of warm summer evenings; it's very young and playful, but also quite sexy; some people say it's too generic and although I'd disagree, I see their point - it's nothing too risky, very safe to wear, which makes it suitable to wear everyday, not ony on special occasions.

The lasting power is great - you only need 2 spritzers and it will stay on all day, my clothes smells of it even a few days after use. Love the packaging aswell!

This fruity floral (more floral than fruity) is in my opinion just as classy and chic smelling as the bottle looks.

Juicy, creamy osmanthus infused with soft citric's, a strong peony note, a rose with a whiff of vanilla leading to a drydown with a hint of sandalwood to give the florals a well chosen 'earthy' vibe. This is how this elegant scent unfolds on my skin.

An all-rounder that behaves at all occasions, I can't see you going wrong wearing this. It's like a little black dress among florals, it is versatile and classy. A well blended and timeless perfume. I daresay that people who normally wouldn't like florals might find this beauty appealing.

Silage is: "a classy and beautiful floral aura with fruity moments and an apparition of sandalwood that enhances its beauty." -- Longevity is very different from person to person. On me it's a satisfying 5+ hours if applied on clothes too.

Not the cheapest scent and notoriously moody depending on chemistry, so sample on skin before purchase to avoid buying a pretty yet fleeting disappointment. Good luck! : )

I could only agree with n.hidayah. I also feel the vanilla, though it's not listed anywhere. I am happy to not to be the only one. I bought Flora based on its composition - a blind buy. Well, it's definitely not my perfume. Very young and kind of sweet. I love peony and I like rose and red pepper. Cannot feel any of these in Flora. The longevity is OK, though quite week compared that this is an EDP. Fortunately, I bought it for cheap.

I am so envious of those on whom Flora lasts more than 20 minutes. It's light,sparkly, warm, slightly orangy but more rosy floral and the peony and patchouli is so warm. I love it but it has vanished to the wind within half an hour, even after a slathering on wrists, back of hands, forearms, hair and clothes. On my daughter it lasts for an extra hour so so. And this is the EDP. Sigh. At least I got it (50ml) for only AU$28 on ebay.

I guess im the only one who get the vanilla. Its rather sweet than floral. I like it and usually i choose to wear this on every monday to increase my mood at office. And fortunately im not disturbed by the pink pepper which in other perfumes always get me headache. I recommend this to girls or ladies who enjoy being themselves and always wanna look young.

After a while I can add that overall Flora is pleasant...and I smell tin of citrussy sugary candies called Ledentsi or Diushes in Russia-but not in sweetest way, but in citrussy fizzy way...I wish this scent be stronger, deeper and bolder. BTW, i took it with me while travelling to Tasmania-now it will be tasmanian perfume for me:))If I had body products and layered-I wd definitely have more pleasure and manage to seal the scent. Maybe, after all, it does last on me-I just can't feel it , so gentle it is, like wiffs of fragrant air.

As I do prefer the EDT over the EDP, I don't prefer it over the EDP by too much. The EDT has a nice gentleness too it, but the longevity of the EDT isn't the best which is why I have not purchased it in that form.

Gucci is clean, sweet and floral in short, very well put together though.

I don't find Flora sophisticated, but Flora has a very deep and likable personality. You remember, that girl you met briefly the other day, she was friendly, beautiful, and doe eyed? That was Flora... at least thats what I feel it represents when I smell it.

P.S. But this perfume is definitely long-lasting and you can always smell it on yourself even if you put only few sprays a couple of hours later. That's pretty much the only thing I appreciate about this now. It's also definitely a "girlish" spring and summer scent, but like I said, I just don't feel "me".

I bought this about three months ago on a whim right on the spot after initially thinking that this was something extraordinary. I was so seduced that I bought the expensive Eau de Parfum 75 ml bottle after walking around in the mall for some time. I know that this isn't listed in the notes and might sound "off" for some of you reading this, but for some reason I detected some honey (and believe it or not, the citrus top notes were not dominant at all for me at that time). Anyway, I received the 50 ml Gucci Flora Body Lotion as a complimentary gift with my purchase so sometimes I layer this on before applying the perfume. However, looking back I actually regret buying this; I mean the scent isn't bad (it's really lovely) but either my body chemistry changed (now I always get the citrus part from top to drydown) and/or it's because I "discovered" other perfumes since then which "define me". At this point, I just wear this casually on weekends when I'm at home and going to the store but I'm thinking of giving it away to my mom perhaps. I wish that I bought a smaller bottle. >_

Warm elegant citrussy floral-lush...but so subtle on me. I can't smell a hint of it on my skin-it just disappears.

This is a warm, rich and lovely fragrance. Got the 30ml EDP and I just love it! Bit too woody in the top notes for my liking though, this is what I pick up anyway. But it's sweet and floral as well which makes it just beautiful. Classy and perfect for everyday use!

Smelled this at the store once.

The smell was gorgeously sweet and warm, it instantly makes you fall in love!

Flora is a whole lotta lovely florals - beautiful bottle and fragrance. :) PERFECT

i want this so bad...it smells wonderful,but now i have a lot of parfumes,and i guess i should wait a little to buy this....:(

Gucci Flora is my all time favorite fragrance. Considering how many fragrances I have it is hard to pick just one to call a signature scent but, I love Gucci Flora! Gucci Flora is elegant, sophisticated, and classy. Fresh peony, cool citrus, sweet mandarin, fruity osmanthus, deep patchouli, soft rose, with light sandalwood and pink pepper. Absolutely amazing! Incredibly gorgeous fragrance! I Love it!

oh flora, how I like you in the opening and how you irritate me in dry down!! I didn't look up its basenotes here closely, I couldn't remember a single one of them, so I tried and like the first moments, but as it stays on it started to irritate me so bad! I liked it in a first few tries, I even may have written some reviews here, but a few days ago I let it on my skin for a longer period of time and I could get sandalwood, but along came something that disrupts the whole balance of the perfume. flora does a 180 at that point, turns from happy floral to gloomy, possibly rotten sandalwood on me. so I come here and bam! patchouli and pink pepper, two of my most hated notes on base notes. that explained all to me, and sadly, kept me from getting flora... goodbye flora, until you get rid of those two and come with a new formulation or flanker...

Simply a classic! Elegant and fun, refined yet can break a couple of "rules" playful, smart, wise, respectfuly...all the words that come to my mind when smelling this... and definitely not trampy or show-offish :-) It smells very chypre, these white flowers are mixed very well. This is one that all people can wear. It makes you feel like a tall glass of champagne; bubbly yet crisp. It is definitely worth keeping in your wardrobe. It is interchangeable as well, a day or night perfume, casual morning walks to dinners out, and even to a ball! It is really that great of a perfume, and people around you will always love the way you smell! A classic by Gucci!

Today I've had the weirdest experience with flora ever. In the morning I eat a bar of dark chocolate when my stomach was empty. I felt as nauseous as hell and the whiff of flora made it even worse. Then I had to wash up but the scent wouldn't come out. So, I would recommend flora for those who looking for a long-lasting, delightful, floral, powdery scent, Gucci's flora would be just perfect for you. For those who easily to feel cloying, don't even bother. However I still love this perfume so much.

I surprisingly love this! Got a small bottle today as a gift to myself. In lieu of flowers, I decided to give me a floral fragrance instead. Usually florals give me headaches when used during warm days, but not Gucci Flora! Bright, fresh cut flowers with dewdrops on a sunny but windy day is what Gucci Flora brings to mind. Strong citrusy floral opening, smells clean and dewy till drydown, unlike other florals that tend to turn musty. Gucci Flora in EDP lasts a decent 6 hours on me.

this give me the headaches. too floral and overwhelming. it's like you're bathed in powder. pardon me for being blunt.

When Flora edt came out I took a brief uninterested whiff and dismissed it immediately- and never gave it another thought. Last fall I was in Brussels and a woman walked past me and I smelt something soft, distinctive and lovely - I asked her what on earth smelt so lovely and she whipped out her Flora edt!! Shocker. I regained interest and bought the edp. Love Flora- its soft ( it's ok to be soft sometimes)), fresh and just great to wear. It's a favourite.

I've only tried the edt version. The longevity was excellent. And even though it's not a frargrance I found myself able to use because of it's sweetness on my skin.. I will say it was absolutely beautiful..and the sweetness was a very unique kind of sweet , not like anything I'd smelled before. I have been told by several that the edp is very similar.. only a bit creamier and lasts even longer.

IMHO this version of all Flora`s is the Best One. Deep, rich, sweet, refreshing, unique. This is totally out of main stream, definitely not for young girls, but for mature, strong and determined Ladies.

i like the opening>>>citrusy and floral ... but after a few minuts it goes wrong !! i think it's the pink pepper... i get the same ugly smell when i try
212 sexy ...so it must be it ! too shame! i'd have loved it without the pink pepper :(

Cypre , sweet , very yummi . Long lasting , about 8 hours on my skin . Beautiful bottle , amazing fragrance . For spring and summer . Positive vote .

I want to buy this fragrance !i tested in a drugstore and i feel in love with !its really that "flower"wich i like and its that sour that i like and not sweet wich is point for mee i feel the peony citrus-y nuance.osmatus is noticeable,and not the patchouli wich i hate.The dry down its great spicy peppery.The staying powr very good and sillage fabuloso!!!Recommended for any ocasion alldays altime !!!

i wanted to like this, but some reason i smell a mis placed ginger note in it :-S weird!

flora is elegant,fresh and long lasting .

it is not a boring floral scent.

you may use at work,party or a romantic dinner. it ifts every kind of occasion.

it is a kind of "men like parfume."

Gorgeous, sophisticated, floral scent. Everything about this perfume feels luxurious to me. The bottle is beautiful and the scent makes me feel pretty and feminine. The staying power is incredible. A few sprays and it will last all day.

totally for younger girls, the scent gives you that carefree, light-hearted, dreamy feeling

The opening is a burst of fruit and flowers, which is nice and gently wafts up to my nose. Something quickly turns sour, perhaps the osmanthus, which burns my nose to smell. However this doesn't last too long before getting into the dry down which is a beautiful rose and sandalwood, with a hint of earthy patchouli and softly spicy pink pepper. The dry down I find very beautiful, I just wish that that sour note wasn't present. But excepting that, this is a very lovely floral scent, with nice sillage.

I Absolutely love this perfume. Not because it smells like something I want, or I own it. It's because of the memories. My Grandma wears this on a regular basis and so whenever I get a whiff of it I always think of my Grandma and her huge garden an her house. It's aimed at a younger audience, but I find it works for any age.

absolutely for teenagers. sweet and dreamy. i dont think people would realize its from Gucci though.

This has potential to be a new classic. I know it's intended for younger women but I can see this be an absolute (female) crowd pleaser. So clean and crisp and floral all at once. I'm very happy to have found this.

How gorgeous can a perfume get!

It is such a lush floral that i was not expecting to like. SUPERIOR longevity and sillage!! REALLY SUPERIOR!

Smells rich, clean and everything you would want to smell like upon entering a new phase in your life.

i love it , it's one of my favorit perfume .
it's smells good, attractive, it stays longer than 6 hours on my skin, i find it a discret perfume; anybody agree with me ?

i dislike the whole flora range its a headache perfume i owned the 75ml bottle of the edt when it first came out and hated it i dont think its fresh or clean its just a strong floral that will give you a headache

ONLY DECENT GUCCI SCENT IS GUCCI BY GUCCI THE REST JUST NO GOOD

Me encanta su olor. Es femenino, dulce, natural y fresco. Huele a frutas y cítricos, a flores y miel.
Es ideal en primavera! Siempre que lo llevo puesto me preguntan por él pues es muy agradable. Suelo usarlo por el día ya que me parece un perfume luminoso y fresco. La permanencia en la piel es muy buena en éste que es Eau de parfum.

All my favourite notes in one flanker :-) I could not ask for more!!!
Flora is a clean floral fragrance with citrus-y nuances in the background and thankfully, it is not dominated by patchouli :-)
It opens in a quite unusual way, I can detect citruses in a way of delicious dessert served on a hot sunny day :-)
It mellows to peony and osmanthus, the rose notes are hardly noticeable to me. The drydown is really great; a pinch of patchouli on a spicy pink peppery base.
Citruses, however, can be easily detected from the opening till the very dry down.
It does not bother me as this is what makes Flora a great companion for spring days and summer evenings!
After my rather traumatic experience with Envy Me, I avoided Gucci fragrances at all costs as I presumed they are all over estimated but Flora proved me wrong :-)
Gucci Flora would appeal to Kenzo Tigre lovers who ocassionally prefer to swap the spicy citrusy juice to a citrusy sweet.
It has good staying power and the most pleasant sillage.
Feminine, refreshing, smile inducing.
Highly recommended!

FLORA edp feels a bit more grown up than the original (edt) This is far more beautiful, elegant, sophisticated, powdery clean, more intense and luxurious, the scent also lasts longer on the skin. I spray myself in the morning and I can still catch the whiffs in the evening. That is really impressive!

The notes are now stronger and more sultry and well blended. It's easy to wear in all occassions despite of its richness. It is not too sweet nor too citrusy. I love it! I feel fresh, very feminine and glamorous.

They say it's linear but it is attractively unique! It's stunning! This is luxury at its best!

It's a brilliant gesture for GUCCI to upgrade it.
Well done!

Is exuberant, graceful, elegant and easy to use on different occasions being an EDP (original version). I would say it's romantic too. The longevity is good, and so is the sillage.

I still think the secret of this scent, full of exquisite flowers and seductive for both gender, remains outside the bottle: in the tension between the feminine and elegant ribbon with the bold, elegant, faceted flacon may be the secret Flora is guarding from us all: cause once you've seen this stylish desing, you find yoursef compeling to smell the fragance, and when you do that... you are at Flora's world, believe me.

Quite nice. For a floral fragrance, it is actually quite sweet. Reminds me a bit of The One (D&G) except The One is a lot sweeter and heavier. So if you liked The One but thought you could do with something lighter, Gucci Flora might do it for you. I don't find it special in any way but it is pretty and wearable (as long as you like sweet).

In find this plays up on my skin as the weather gets colder, so I recommend trying it on your skin first before you buy.

I love it. I find it a sweet, warm, feminine perfume for a romantic young woman. Perfect for spring.

Classy, luxurious and very atractive. Great for summer and spring.

This is definitely for the Eau because my combination skin doesn't do well at all with oils or concentrates which are in perfume.
When I find samples GF Eau in magazines, I tear them out and put them in my t shirt drawer.
Today, with my t shirt, I'm wearing a necklace that has thin cord with beads tied on,it was in my bedside tin with my hankies and chewing gum so it smells minty. The two smells are faint but nice together
fresh herbacious green-flowery (spearmint)+ honeysuckle(the GF osmanthus,probably).

On my skin however,Flora can get a slight chemical smell,almost mildewy leather.I wouldn't be surprised if it's the rose and base notes, none of those sit well on my skin usually. On me it's faint but noticeable enough that I haven't bought any (affordable minis).

It's got potential for the right weather/chemistry, though.I hate perfume in summer and spring during the day but, lightly, one GF spritz could be okay.

It's one of those subtle,very slightly sweet unplacable but layered not muddy scents.Another that reminds me of St Germain or Eiswein, it's a wafting bouquet, not crushed dried stale mush like some 'implacable's *ugh*

I bought Flora in duty-free when I was in a hurry, I hadn't enough time to test it. I liked the bottle and the name. But I don't regret. I can't say that Flora is a magnificent fragrance, it's just nice. I'm a great fan of citruses and I love rose, so for me Flora is all right! This fragrance is delicate, with normal lasting power and conciliative. Using Flora I feel myself lying in the middle of the meadow covered with wild flowers!
The bottle is gorgeous, but price is too high.

Tried it today ,,,
mmmm I liked it alooooooT
it reminds me alittle bit of D&G THE ONE >>> anybody agree with me ?
am thinking to buy it because it's class and have along lasting power ,, i sprayed it before 9 hours and still can smell it on my clothes..

"caramelized" "citric-flowers" :D ... Prominent and long lasting ;)

Its nice and feminine. Nothing special in my opinion, but you never be "bad" wearing this.

Really nice bottle :D

I came across this perfume when I was on a visit to Hong Kong, in SOGO. I tested it and decided to buy it because of its fragrance and also because we share the same name (Flora). I love it! Really lightly sweet and floral fragrance...a must have for floral/fruity fragrance lover!

Realmente este perfume es mi esencia
favorita, es tan fresco y dulce a la vez,la flor de peonya me encanta asi como los citricos hacen una fusion extraordinaria en mi piel, su esencia es muy duradera, y a la gente q me rodea
tambien les gusta mucho.
Te amo FLORA. SALUDOS A TODOS

i went today to a perfume store , and curiosity made me tried this ,
i am not expert in women perfume , but what i smelled was awesome.

long lasting powerful scent , attractive and pleasant, high quality .

what i get is flower , like falling in field of flowers .

for me i love it.

This is very disgusting. Flora smell like a concentrated synthetic orange juice, very sweet and intense. I can't believe a fragrance could be so cloying. The only thing i love from Flora is the commercial. The edt is more wearable.

It's a lovely perfume and innoffensive (on me anyway). Nothing that will turn heads but it is warm and comforting. Reminds me of a warm summer afternoon in a garden or the country. Good for everyday wear!

Flora is, on my skin, a pleasant floral. It opens with a hint of fruit, but immediately upon hitting my skin that fruit is gone, leaving just the florals, which are very clear and clean. After maybe 15 minutes or so some powder creeps in, but not enough to ruin the scent for me. The staying powder could be better - I put it on 3 hours ago and only the very faintest hint of ... something (I can't figure out what I'm smelling or if I like it) is there. Overall the scent is OK and I like it, but I wouldn't spend much money to procure it. If I could get it cheap, or if someone bought it for me as a gift I'd be delighted

Flora Edp is really sweet on my skin, with a prevalent synthetic smell. It's very plasticky, dusty, lifeless - something a Barbie doll's hair would smell like... I can't distinguish any floral notes in it, it's rather unnatural.

On the high side, I like the fact that it's strange and doesn't resemble anything I've smelled before. It does transpose you into a slightly different world and I like scents that can do that, that have a story, a personality to them.

I gave Flora by Gucci a fair enough chance. I tried both the EDT and EDP versions on the skin and on a card, and yet neither excites me.

Flora EDP is just too much of something. Perhaps it's too sweet, too creamy or just too floral. Something about this composition unnerves me.

When settled on the skin, Flora EDP smells like a bar of soap. Clean and pleasant but nothing that could cause any heads to turn in your direction. Perhaps it is that inoffensive, quiet feeling that has so many people loving this fragrance.

I hate to say it, but Flora comes across as rather synthetic to my nose. If it smelt like a natural bouquet of flowers I probably wouldn't dislike this fragrance so much. That odd creaminess makes me prefer an unscented lotion over and above this fragrance, both of them creating the same feeling.

Flora is restricted to the floral category, even though it attempts to become earthy with the patchouli in the base. I managed to wear this fragrance for the duration that it lasted, which was an impressive seven or so hours. Flora EDP was unfortunately so very linear over this time, that it showed barely signs of depth or complexity.

I think Flora EDP is much better than EDT, though they share a lot of ingredients in comman.

In my eye it's the kind of sweet and creamy and wet flower scent, not a dry-powdery one.

Lasting power is amazing, wearing it you'll smell like a sweet flower for many hours, at least half a day I can say.

So gorgeous, I think it's worth the money. Would be very glad if I have one bottle.

Having an edt version of Flora, this one makes me sick with its strength. I know it may sound silly, but i'd rather reapply the edt more frequently than have this one on my skin all day. Something must be wrong with me.

I would like to give this one a try -pity about the name though - in Australia we have a margarine called "Flora" so I think that may put a lot of people off buying it! The notes are good and I love peony, rose, patchouli and sandalwood so will have a spritz next time I am in the pharmacy and see how it goes with my skin (and also test how long it lasts!)

I tried it on and gee did it fizz like sherbert! Lovely, sparkly scent with an AMAZING bottle. I was sure I had found a winner.

It has since dried down to a sickly, articial cherry smell a la children's medicine. I don't know what's causing it but I wish it would stop being so petulant & return to its effevescent self. Boo!!!!

UPDATE: It took an hour or two but it did return from its foray into yuck to become a deeper glorious smelling version of its top notes. Yay! It is probably worth an hour of weirdness for the reward!

UPDATE: I have tried both the EDT & the EDP and the EDP is an infinitly superior product. The EDT was too strident & artifical smelling.

i bought this perfume based on reviews without smelling it buti must say i love it it has a fruity smell at first but then dies down to a soft scent perfect scent for feeling romantic and girly

Sometimes all of the notes of a perfume meld together to produce an irresistible synthetic whole, rather like a perfectly composed and performed symphony. Other times, a perfume has a nondescript, homogenized quality, as though each of the individual, potentially beautiful notes has been stripped of something essential. As though the various components have been thrown in a blender and left to puree for far too long.

Gucci FLORA edp unfortunately falls into the latter category. It is really impossible to tease out the usually distinctive notes: peony (which believe me, I know, since I have a big-time "peony problem"), rose, citrus, patchouli, osmanthus, sandalwood: it all seems washed out, a bit like a muzak rendition of Beethoven's ninth. Well, except that there are no movements or development...

FLORA reminds me a bit of JOHN VARVATOS, a kind of mushy fruit cocktail/artificial flower combination which, while not a repulsive scrubber, is not very noteworthy at all. No, not to my nose.

I had a sample of flora EDT AND I must say I really liked it. Once I had a chance to get Flora EDP thinking that will stay longer on me I didnt hesitated. Well, it is far too rich for me.I was reading reviews and I can totally agree with rithacha and irishprinces,I have the same feelings.

As promised, EDP is richer and more intense. It's lovely, clean and sour. Perfect for spring/summer and I guess every occasion. Not overly sweet, but has pleasant hint of sweetness. It's pretty linear, barely changes, but it's cheering up. I really like it and consider to buy it sometime xD

Well, I never thought I would say this, but I have finally discovered a perfume where I like the EDT version better than the EDP. I always think EDPs are superior and have happily spent the extra dollars to get the EDP versions of the perfumes I like. But not this one. I have no idea why, but there is something not right with this one. Whereas the EDT has good staying power on me, this one disappears within minutes. Don't know if it that this one is a little sweeter/citrusy and doesn't agree with my skin chemistry? Anyway, this one leaves an empty/unfinished impression with me as well and I had to return my bottle of it. My advice would be to try both the EDT and EDP on your skin before buying.

Absolutely delicious! The drydown is one the creamiest sandalwoods I've ever experienced. I found the EDT too sweet, so I was not expecting to like this one at all. Huge surprise!

It strikes me as strange that Gucci would make an edp of Flora edt, which already has really remarkable staying power. I'm not a huge fan of Flora edt either, but between the two, I would pick the edt over the edp.

For the simple reason that Flora edp is far too sweet. It is a deeper and more intense interpretation of Flora edt, which was mildly sweet to begin with. But Flora edp verges on candied flowers, which never ever appeals to me. The nectared florals in the edt were bearable, but the edp smells like rose syrup.

I never got the chance to test this on my skin, but I would assume that the lasting power is wonderful; the edt was great in this department to begin with, and the edp base smells even more strongly fixed.

So I would recommend trying for Flora edt fans, but those turned away by the cloying sweetness in the edt should run for cover.

There's something strange with this perfume..

On one hand I like the smell very much, it's nice, clean and young.
But this perfume has no drydown.. The smell stays the same as it was from the first spray.. and that makes it bit of an 'empty' smell.. A bit boring also because it don't develop. And it gives me also a empty feeling when I smell it on myself.
After a while it also became a bit anoying.. don't know why.

It's defenitly not bad and smells good, only I cant get used to it. The lasting power is great btw.

I think everything is clear with Flora. It is floral, smells like peony and rose, since it is Edp lasts long and has superb strength. Has no development of smell, whatsoever. Opens and dies as floral. Not sweet, not synthetic, not bad.

If you like Flora edt and find it to light try this.
If you’re a floral fan try this.
If you fancy silage monster perfumes try this.

If all three answers are yes you should buy Flora.

I just receive my sample few days ago. I try it and i like it a lot. Why? Because i've tried this few time, but i dont like it. I try it in store, but i do not like it. Maybe because i try the EDT version. With EDP, i suddently like the smell after spray it. More airy, youth and energized. Great combination with less notes. However, dont it remind you of something?
Think of cheap perfume... dont you think it smell like Avon Women of Earth? actually, i like it and i do wear Women of Earth during my high school. The same scent, but without vanilla i think. It better than Gucci by Gucci which i hate because it smell like arabian perfume. Flora is great for sunny days, really nice.

My wonderful fiancee bought this as a gift for me.
I have tried the EDT and loved it. But i haven't worn this one yet.
Although to my nose it smells the same as the EDT just stonger and more intense, which is always a good thing, as it last that much longer on the skin.
I am waiting to wear it somewhere special. So i'll get back to you guys then.

Tried it today. What can I say...probably one of the best and high quality floral scents on the market, floar, clean (not sweet) and powdery; long lasting.

However, it's still a floral which makes it common.
Resemlblance with Sunflowers by Elizabeth Arden.

I smelled this yesterday,and i really like it.Much better then the edt,a really lovely scent.I just love the citrus/orange note,i like that it smells sweet citrus.On my want list for sure!

The EDT was fabulous and when layered with the lotion it 'went' a bit longer. Gucci extends the life with their EDP version and when it is layered with the lotion, it will last approximately 8 hours (longer if it's applied to underclothes before dressing). It is a very lovely, fresh scent appropriate for those 20 - 40ish.

My mother received this as a gift and I like it from my first smell. Great perfume, really nice box and bottle although those things dont really matter.

I loved the original Flora but it just doesnt last on me. Plus its like 65 and 90 bucks for an edt! Thats a little 2 much for me. But this edp looks great! The bottle is stunning! Its probably much more $$$ but itll b worth it if it lasts longer. Cant wait 2 try it!
