Lovely feminine floral fragrance, beautiful bottle
Kenzo Flower is a modern floral perfume for which Kenzo took his inspiration from flowers blossoming in city environments and links the city with nature. It was introduced in early 2000 and since then has sold incredibly well apparently doubling the turnover for Kenzo. Consequently it’s not a perfume for someone who wants a rare and more unique fragrance as many women will immediately recognise Flower but regardless of its frequent occurrence it is still a very lovely perfume.
It is classified as a fresh, soft white floral and is a very feminine fragrance and is suggested as suitable for casual daytime and romantic evening wear but really is suitable for everyday wear when ever you feel comfortable about wearing it. It is delicate and subtle enough for work yet evocative and delicate enough to wear for a romantic tête-à-tête
Flower; the fragrance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Flower opens with floral notes and initially the aroma is quite sweet and powdery. The opening notes are may blossom and cassis (blackcurrant flower) after a few minutes these settle down and the mid notes develop and these are a harmonious blending of Parma violet, Bulgarian rose, almond, Ylang Ylang, jasmine and Orange blossom.
The base notes consist mainly of. wild Hawthorne, white musk, amber, almond and a touch of French vanilla, merge into this floral blend with out replacing it but do deepen it and add to the overall richness and intensity.
This is a rich and elegant floral perfume with a sweet and powdery fragrance which is very pleasing to the senses. It is very feminine but only delicate when used sparingly if overdone this perfume could become a little too sweet. Its best, I think, to spray in moderation with the intention of refreshing when needed. Kenzo claim this fragrance will last around 4 hours but I find it is less than that which means it is perfect for a touch up now and again and you aren’t likely to overdo it.
Flower; the Package
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kenzo has released this perfume in a packing that is nearly as lovely as the perfume. The box is a white, tall and narrow oblong. On the front of the box is a dark crimson Flanders poppy and FLOWERBYKENZO is printed so it virtually runs along the stem. Flower is written in crimson: By written in a pale grey and Kenzo in a dark grey. The overall effect of the box is very appealing with its freshness and clean contrasting colours. The sides of the box are also adorned with poppies in various stages of blooming.
The bottle is simple yet incredibly attractive. Made of semi transparent glass it is shaped very much like a curved bud vase; tall, narrow and very delicate; in reality it is very sturdy and well made but despite this it has an appearance of fragility which makes it so very feminine.
Traced down the side of the bottle is one single poppy with a vibrant green stem and a deep crimson head. The effect of this makes it appear that the poppy is standing in a vase of water. The poppy head is actually on the cap and lines up with the rest of the stem when the top is replaced. It is a very lovely yet so very simple design.
Flower; the Range
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kenzo has a fair range of products in the Flower fragrance meaning you can get EDT and EDP, milky body mist, creamy body milk, milky shower cream and a perfumed deodorant spray. Its also a good buy being not so expensive that you wouldn’t be able to use it as an everyday signature fragrance if you chose to., for example 30 ml of the Eau De Parfum will cost around £20

great price on great product
I had admired this perfume for a while in duty free shops, and had looked into buying it from Sephora (and several other department-type stores); I am so glad I checked essentialmallsince their largest size is priced comprable to Sephora`s middle-size which was much less volume.
I haven`t worn perfume very often before but I get compliments on this one frequently. I am actually looking forward to winter when I will probably wear it full-time (now I wear the kenzo summer when it is hot, since the kenzo flower seems a bit ornate for tshirts and flip-flops).

Romantic Fragnance
Usually I have been changing my perfume. The boy who is at the shop where I am buying perfumes and other cosmetics is giving helping hand to select the best items. Recently when I went there he told me to buy Kenzo Flower at this time. He showed me the perfume. Initially I liked to the attractive nice design of the bottle. However I checked the fragnance. lt`s lovely. It has a romantic floral fragnance. I bought two of them. It is better to wear at daytime, evening time and romantic functions. According to my experience Kenzo Flower has a good staing power. It is the best quality of the ferfume. It helps to keep me fresh and improve my self confidence. I feel I shouldn`t change my perfume for a long period. I love Kenzo Flower. Try it once.
