A new, very floral Eau de Toilette appears at Kenzo. Created to celebrate Kenzo's passage into the year 2000, Flower By Kenzo tells the story of a very singular flower: the poppy. Has anyone ever noticed that this plant releases no scent at all? It took real audacity to dare turn it into a perfume
Designed to celebrate Kenzo's passage into the new millennium, Flower By Kenzo was born in 2000, and has since stood as one of the most iconic fragrances in all of women's perfumery. It must be said that the originality of this fragrance was bound to surprise. Springing up in the city like a scentless flower, Flower By Kenzo drew its inspiration from the poppy, a true first. Today it transforms and becomes Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet. So what about this new perfume? Here is a closer look at its composition.
Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet, a floral and woody perfume inspired by the poppy
Let us first explain the olfactory concept behind this fragrance saga. Like its predecessors, Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet draws its inspiration from the poppy. If the idea is surprising, it is simply because the poppy is one of the only scentless flowers. Daring to create a perfume based on a scentless flower took real nerve. Yet Kenzo has been excelling at this exercise for 20 years. Here, master perfumer Alberto Morillas teams up with young perfumer Dora Baghriche, and both rise to the challenge. Together they create a unique signature, at once floral, powdery and woody. Here, Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet is more of a floral evocation. Like the poppy, it celebrates contagious energy and the power to make the world more beautiful.
The olfactory pyramid of Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet
Now that you know where Kenzo draws its inspiration from, let us tell you more about its composition. At first, Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet unfolds a very fruity breath. Here, forget the traditional citrus notes. Kenzo prefers to pay tribute to its Japanese roots. For this, the house relies on nashi pear, at once green, refreshing and juicy. The heart of Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet, meanwhile, becomes more floral. It notably contains one of the most famous flowers in perfumery: Bulgarian rose. Voluptuous, romantic and warm, it is joined by other ingredients such as jasmine and gardenia, forming a generous bouquet of flowers. Radiant, the poppy of Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet leaves no one indifferent. Little by little, it wraps itself further in creamy accents of almond wood, an ingredient rarely used in perfumes, which here signs all the intensity and modernity of this fragrance. Like its predecessors, Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet displays a modern, graphic olfactory texture. It portrays the image of an active, urban woman, who appreciates flowers to brighten her daily life, as another way to recharge and make the urban world ever more beautiful. Flower By Kenzo Poppy Bouquet offers a new poetic vision of perfumery. First refreshing, this fragrance gradually becomes more generous and enveloping. It unfolds all its sensuality little by little, like rose petals opening right before our eyes.
