The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 1808 by Lanman & Kemp, Florida Water is a lasting Citrus Aromatic fragrance created by Robert I. Murray. The composition opens with bright citrus and fresh spicy notes before transitioning into warm spices like cinnamon and white florals, all anchored by aromatic lavender. This unisex scent has been a staple in the United States for over two centuries, blending the freshness of citrus with the warmth of spices in a harmonious blend.

How to wear it

Florida Water is best applied lightly due to its strong projection. One or two sprays are sufficient to maintain the balance between its fresh top notes and warm base. It's particularly enjoyable during cooler weather when the spicy and citrus elements come through most vibrantly.
