Gucci Flora Eau de Parfum

  Like many other women, I love a nice high end perfume.  What I especially love about perfume is that it can make someone remember you.  Whenever I get a whiff of a perfume that is worn by my sister, aunts, mother, step mother I instantly remember them.  I have an insanely good long term memory and smelling a perfume that I wore in the past can bring me back to the period of time I wore it.

  The reason I was attracted to this perfume was that it's not like anything I've ever used before.  I've always worn sweet or woodsy perfumes, nothing light and floral.  I'm not usually a fan of floral scents on my skin but this one is special.  I'm awful at describing scents but it starts off smelling floraly but has other layers that I can smell later on in the day which are much deeper.  Flora is more grown up than perfumes I've used in the past yet it's still "young".  I think it's the perfect scent for ladies in their mid-20s to mid 30s.

  This is the description from Sephora which describes it better than I can and gives you a little history behind Flora:

Experience this more concentrated and captivating formulation of Gucci Flora—a subtle, sophisticated, floral fragrance inspired by princesses from the past, present, and future. The Flora Donna is a young, classic, and refined woman with the 'Gucci edge' of power and sensuality. She is elegant, natural, and spontaneous. The first Flora scarf was exclusively designed for Princess Grace of Monaco in 1966 and soon became one of the most popular Gucci icons. This scent is an expression of the Flora legacy. Its seductive layers mirror the playful details and bright colors that channel the heart of a fashion empire.

Notes:
Citrus Accord, Peony, Rose, Osmanthus Flower, Pink Pepper, Sandalwood.   

  The quality of this perfume is amazing as I only need to spray it once in the morning and it lasts all day.  I received a lot of compliments on it and my boyfriend loves it.  Not saying that you should smell nice for a man but to me his opinion matters.

Availability: Sephora, department stores (this is also available in an affordable rollerball).

P.S.: I apologize if I'm a bit absent from Blogger this weekend.  I'm spending the weekend with my cousins so I won't be on the computer much.  I'll try my best to reply to comments and comment on other blogs by Monday.
