The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Bouvardia by Floris was launched in 1994 as a warm and inviting Oriental Floral fragrance for women. This scent is steeped in the rich history of Floris, a London-based perfumery that has been crafting fragrances since 1730. Bouvardia opens with fresh and warm spices, leading to a heart of white florals and rose, before settling into a woody and vanilla base that exudes comfort and elegance.

How to wear it

Apply Bouvardia lightly to pulse points — its woody base takes about an hour to fully bloom. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than across a room, making it perfect for intimate settings or evenings at home.
