The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Flora by Gucci Gorgeous Gardenia, launched in 2012 and crafted by Honorine Blanc-Hattab, is a Floral Fruity fragrance that embodies the refined elegance for which Gucci is known. The composition opens with pear and red berries, creating a bright and crisp freshness that gives way to the lush sweetness of gardenia and frangipani. These white florals are then anchored by patchouli, adding an earthy warmth that rounds out the scent. This fragrance captures the essence of Italian luxury, blending vibrant fruitiness with opulent floral notes.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in light layers to allow the pear and red berries to shine initially, followed by the rich gardenia. It pairs well with both daytime and evening wear, but works best when the air is mild rather than hot.
