Let review 1 by 1 Gucci Flora Collections...
1) Glamorous Magnolia
top notes : red berries accord, fresh pear
heart notes
: white gardenia, frangipani flower
base notes
: patchouli, brown sugar accord
"A sparkling prelude of succulent red berries and juicy pear gives way
to an opulent floral heart. The plushness of gardenia petals is
enhanced by the creamy warmth of frangipani flower, underlaid by the
delectable aroma of patchouli and brown sugar."
2) Glorous Mandarin
top notes: mandarin, peony
middle notes: jasmine, pina colada accord
heart notes: ambergris, white musk, creamy wood
"This magnificent scent blends joyful mandarin with the tropical rum
and pineapple of the pina colada. In place of the traditional coconut,
the cocktail is completed with creamy wood notes that are at once
contemporary and sumptuously feminine".
3) Gracious Tuberose
top notes: violet leaves, juicy peach
heart notes: tuberose, orange flower, rose
base notes: cistus (labdanum), white cedarwood
"A distinctively elegant tuberose in which a verdant overture of
violet leaves and peach softens into the plant’s silken blossom. A base
of white cedarwood and cistus enhances the impression of refined charm".
4) Gorgeous Gardenia
top notes : red berries accord, fresh pear
heart notes
: white gardenia, frangipani flower
base notes
: patchouli, brown sugar accord
"A sparkling prelude of succulent red berries and juicy pear gives way
to an opulent floral heart. The plushness of gardenia petals is

"Two of perfumery’s most distinguished oils – violet and orris -
combine to exquisite effect. Their heady yet decorous luxuriousness is
complemented by the rich, textural quality of Gucci’s suede accord,
evoking the hidden feminine secrets of a woman’s handbag."
