Florabotanica is a floral fragrance from Balenciaga, composed by Olivier Polge and Jean-Christophe Hérault and released in 2012. Flowers lead, with woody, herbal and amber sides behind them.
Mint opens with a cool, green and refreshing lift. The heart brings carnation, which gives a spicy, clove-like floral note, rose, a soft warmth, and cannabis, which adds a green, slightly herbal and resinous edge. In the base, amber brings a warm glow, and vetiver a dry, earthy and slightly smoky woodiness.
About half of wearers find it long lasting, and sillage is moderate or strong. It is voted for spring and summer and mostly for daytime. It suits the office and daytime occasions, and someone who likes unusual, green and spicy florals with a botanical, slightly edgy character rather than a sweet or conventional bouquet.
