The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2019, Flower by Kenzo Eau de Vie is a unisex fragrance that marries the fresh vibrancy of citrus and spicy notes with the warmth of vanilla and musk. Perfumers Alberto Morillas, Marie Salamagne, and Fabrice Pellegrin have crafted a composition that opens with the zesty freshness of neroli and ginger before transitioning into the delicate floral notes of orange blossom and Bulgarian rose. The heart of this fragrance is characterized by its powdery and musky base notes, creating an overall effect that feels both invigorating and comforting.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in layers for the best effect. The top notes of neroli and ginger are bright but fleeting, so multiple sprays will ensure they linger. Once the base notes settle in, the warmth of vanilla and musk will provide a lasting comfort throughout the day.
