Floriana

Final Thoughts

Floriana is a solid daily driver if you love the Gucci Bloom DNA. It's a great option if you want something work-appropriate or just for running errands. The synthetic edge is there, but it isn't overpowering. But for everyday wear? Floriana gets the job done. Grab it, spray it liberally, and don't worry about using up your expensive stuff.

Olfactory Experience

Floriana tries its best to be Gucci Bloom. Straight up, it’s about 88% there. The jasmine bursts out initially, maybe a touch sharper and more synthetic than the real deal. It's bright but lacks the creamy roundness of Bloom. The tuberose at the heart is fairly faithful – present and floral. Where it veers off-course is in the dry down. The Rangoon creeper is there, but it smells a little…thin. Bloom has a certain depth and a slightly green edge that Floriana misses. The base is where the synthetic quality is most noticeable.

Wear time & Sillage

Longevity is respectable. I get a solid 5-6 hours on skin, projecting moderately for the first hour or so. It won't fill a room, but people close to you will definitely notice it. On clothes, it hangs around longer, closer to 8 hours.
