Gucci Bloom Intense

Mostly creamy heady flowers like jasmine and gardenia, rich and full. Underneath that, smells like food: caramel, chocolate, vanilla, bakery.

It opens on pear, ginger and mandarin orange, moves through tuberose, night blooming jasmine and jasmine sambac, and settles on patchouli, moss and coconut.

• pear: light watery sweetness with a green crispness
• ginger: sharp and fresh with a peppery bite, closer to the raw root than to gingerbread

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
