im on the fence with orijantal, i LOVE it soo much better then the original but if i read about the lasting power it seems that i have to bring the bottle with me for re applying it! knowing my chemistry this could be quite right... maybe its worth to do so..hmm tricky

I like Flower EDP and I thought Flower Oriental will be almost the same with a touch of smokey incense and spices. However, Flower Oriental is not much like Flower on my skin, actulally I smell only incense for quite a long while, than it turns into a warm, still smokey vanilla-base. Very little flowery notes can I detect, I wish i couls smell the violets more.
The lasting power is interesting: when spryaing on, i hardly smell anything, but it becomes more strong in a few minutes and I smell it all day.
Unfortunatelly almost every perfume that has incense note will smell almost the same on my skin, incense dominates the fragrance, so on me Flower Oriental's drydown is very similar to Velvet Hour's for example.

I"m late with my review on this one, but this was my favorite scent while on vacation in Kauai. It's upbeat, interesting and sensuous; and wears extremely well when you are constantly hot and sweaty :-)

One of my favorites! It's incense and spices all along, but so beautiful and warm!.
I was badly impressed with Flower, but this one is so different!
The smell lingers and dances around me for quite some time, and as it fades it becomes more vanilla sweet. It is smooth and gracious like a flickering candle, very smokey, incense-y and aromatic. Absolutely recommended for the true oriental lovers!

I remember trying the original flower by Kenzo some years ago and I wasnot impressed at all, so when I received this sample from a lovely MUAer, I wasnt expecting much from this either. It does definetely smell similar to the original, but this has the addition of some lovely sexy smokey incense which gives it an edge and makes it likeable to me. Notes are: Bulgarian rose, violet, vanilla, musk, Sichuan pepper, and Chinese incense and kyara (which I think is some form of oudh). I can smell all of these notes, except maybe the violet. The only thing Im not sure I like is the powderiness of the scent, its not overbearing but its definitely there and I'm not 100% sold on it. It's probably not something I will go out and buy but I will use up my sample happily.

I don't like the incense notes...far too heavy ...the original Flower is more mysterious and exotic

Kenzo Flower Oriental is quickly becoming a favorite of mine. For a woody oriental, it's light - light enough that it can be worn anytime. The smoky incense doesn't hang heavy in the air, but instead dances lightly and quietly in sync with your movements. I detect a little bit of the steamed rice note from Indian Holi, mixed with pepper for some added zing. I like the way the smoke, floral notes and sweet vanilla blend together, giving it a distincly Asian quality that makes it unmistakably Kenzo.
The bottle is beautiful...delicate, graceful, and long like the neck of a giraffe. It seems to defy gravity with it's sleek gentle curve. A single black flower graces the top, with the stem flowing down the length of its curved body. The juice itself is the palest shade of grey...as though the smoke has permeated it ever so slightly. A beautiful presentation.

This is so much better than the original Kenzo Flower. I still get some of the powdery tones which I am guessing is violet but there is so much more. The incense adds a totally different aspect to the perfume which makes it more wearable on me. I love violet and its powdery notes, however in most of the flower series it comes off as fresh baby diaper baby powder than soft and sexy powdery on me. This is much much much better!! I still don't know if I am sold for it to be added to my wardrobe but testing it more will be the determining factor.

I recently tried the perfume and I love it only after a few hours after spraying.
Otherwise it's ponderous and even persist but it's not my kind.It's not fresh at all and that makes me a more reserved.

I had a test in a boutique and i think it is a little sweet , plesant ...a nice perfume

The first time I tried, I just sniffed from the cap and considered it awful. But today I sprayed some on my skin and totally changed my mind: it is very good.
A good thing about Flower Oriental is that it´s different of Kenzo Flower and it´s powdery old lady smell. Oriental is warm and confortable, a bit sweet and spicy (it reminds me a little of Celine Oriental).

I don't get the unnatural part of the perfume. I think it just smells incency & musky, light not heavy. A 'warm' scent...

I used to love the original Flower but didn`t want to go back in the same waters, so I took my chances with the Orjental one.It is indeed different.There is this smokey note you get after burning Lakshmi incense.It dilutes the ultimate sweetness and innocence of the original one. It`s hard not to compare them, because there re so many similar notes - but I like the Orjental Flower better, it is like finding something totally unexpected in a person you knew for years.The only flaw it has is the lasting power is not as good...
I also think that the flower on the bottle is more becoming. It is, in my opinion,a black flower that should represent this kind of scent.

It is very much like Flower, but if I had to buy either one, I would go for this one. I like the 'darker' notes, the frangrance is heavier, suits me so much better that Flower... I particularli like the incense overtones...

I like Flower Oriental more than just Flower. It's warmer and spicy. At first it smelt like Flower (I got a little disappointed), but the more minutes passed, the more oriental it became ( then I got satisfied and enthusiastic). But it retains Flower's basic scent a little, of course. The only bad point about this perfume is its relatively poor lasting like takemyhusbandplease and Aeternitas said.

I LOVE this. It's incredible, and I don't find any similarity between this one and the original flower until this one dries down. It is definitely a new favorite, not sure for how long though ;p. I figured because I really disliked Flower by Kenzo that I would hate this one as well. I'm quite surprised! They are totally separate perfumes. While I found Flower to be light, fresh, and slightly powdery, Flower Oriental is spicy, smoky, and yes, very oriental. The violets are also detectable. I love violets. I adore Flower Oriental! This is my kind of perfume. Lasting power, however, isn't too good. After a while, you can still smell it, but it becomes faint. Probably best suitable for winter time.

I like the bottle and the package it comes in.. I only use it in the winter, it stays on quite long.

On me Flower Oriental smells exactly like its namesake Flower edp. I smell violets, vanilla & rose. The only difference from Flower edp that I can smell is a sandelwood or smoky incense base. The lasting power is very moderate on my skin, about 3 hours. It isn't strong & doesn't have a lot of sillage. It would be best to be worn in an intimate setting as, you'd have to be very close to someone to even smell it at all. This is very nice and nonoffensive, but doesn't have quite the pizazz that I'm looking for. I don't like the bottle it always falls over if barely touched.
