10 Best Floral Fragrances That Are Worthy Of Your Fragrance Wardrobe
There’s something that’s rather classic about floral perfumes, don’t you think? The fragrance family transcends you to a feminine, delicate, and very elegant universe. In retrospect, floral scents would be one of the accords you probably associate with the powerful women in your life. And since it houses a very broad spectrum of moods, notes, and tonalities, it is also one of the most popular olfactories when it comes to perfumes. As the name suggests, florals have everything to do with flowers –– whether it’s roses, jasmines, or peonies, a whiff of the fragrance transports you to a warm and cosy garden that’s in full bloom. Within this olfactory family itself you’ll find yourself lost in notes that feel fresh (gardenia and tuberose), notes that are relaxing and have a herb like essence (lavender and chamomile), or even notes that are deeply enticing and just oh-so feminine (hello, rose).
