The moment I smelled it, I thought: ‘pretty girl’. It’s floral and soft, perfect for feeling good and confident without being loud. It doesn’t suit me much, but if you’re looking for something sweet, elegant, and subtle, it’s your thing. Just make sure you don’t sweat too much and don’t live in the heat.

Kenzo never misses! I own it and I love it. I can smell it on my skin and clothes for hours, easily more than 6. I’m going for the Cherry Poppy 😉

I love it. I had this as a teenager to feel elegant and office-ready. Out of all the Kenzos I’ve tried, this is the king. A classic that earned its spot.
TottiMangini
They gifted it to me, and it smells like powder. I hate it. It’s too heavy for a talc scent; it smells old. I tried wearing it after a shower to sleep, but it was impossible. It’s loud on its own. It gives me fatigue and headaches. Nope.
Postrecito_Vs
It smells very floral, but not in a good way; it’s dense. It feels like a perfume for older women. I wouldn’t buy it; I tested the sample. Don’t buy blind.

Oh, Flower! It transports me back to when I was 2 at my godmother’s house; everything smelled like her signature. Those sweet flowers give me so much nostalgia. It’s powdery, floral, very ‘preppy girl’, soft and innocent. Obviously, it’s not for everyone; I like it for the sentimental weight, without it it wouldn’t be my top pick. I smelled it again with a friend and relived everything. Good performance, but the trail fades quickly, lasting about 6 hours with a sillage of just a few meters.

I never understand the hate; it’s one of those scents that defines your life. In my case, I love the powdery aroma; it’s not vintage, it’s clean. I love wearing it after a shower in summer, it’s super comfortable. I use it for personal enjoyment, not to get compliments; it doesn’t draw too much attention.
Isiriis
I bought it blind because my mom talked about it all the time in the 2000s. I loved it at first. Yes, it’s very powdery, but I like the clean scent. I use it at the gym or for long runs; I know it won’t fade even if I sweat. It lasts days on clothes, with a long and lasting trail.
userrandom99
According to Fragrantica it has a thousand notes, but to me it just smells like cheap powder, pure powder, and nothing else.

Back in 2020, when I bought an old country house that had been on the market for 15 years, I found this perfume hidden in the bathroom cabinet of the previous owner. My mom gave it to me, and since then it’s been my signature scent until I ran out. To me, it was pure magic in a bottle, and I didn’t try anything else. Maybe I’ll find it again someday.
cursedhazakura
It’s second skin of powdery flowers. Maybe it just hasn’t aged very well.
oliendobonito
It’s a blend of sweet violets, soft roses, and a creamy base that smells like fine feminine talc. If you like that powdery vibe, it’s present all the time. While it’s delicate, it can be overwhelming if you overapply it. It works perfectly year-round except in summer, where the heat makes it feel a bit suffocating. It’s sweet, musky, and very feminine, with moderate projection and lasting more than 9 hours on clothes.
Alkira76
It feels very dense to me and gives me a headache. It’s extremely floral and feels overdone, like my grandmother’s perfumes, which is why I think it smells too much. The good thing is that I was gifted it, because I wouldn’t have bought it myself.
lapuba
I just tried it on my skin and I absolutely adore it. It’s exactly that ‘your skin but better’ style.
BeckyOran
It’s a beautiful powdery floral. On my skin, it smells exactly like Nivea cream—super clean and not heavy at all. Even though it’s floral, it doesn’t smell old; it’s a classic that suits women of all ages because it’s neither outdated nor childish, just very pretty and pleasant.
Alba Gómez
I already tried the Caravan dupe and loved it so much that I decided to buy the original… what a joy. From the first spray, I fell in love: it’s much finer and more intense than the copy. At first, it’s a fresh bouquet of flowers, floral to the max, but then it turns deeply powdery, which is my favorite part: pure baby powder. If you like smelling like that, it’s ideal. The longevity is good, and it projects on you (it’s not one of those that smells on others but not on you).
Pachi San
If a fragrance has been on the market for 25 years and is still selling, it’s because it’s beautiful. Flower by Kenzo is that. On my skin, it smells woody, floral, and powdery. It’s a classic of classics, but I don’t feel it’s vintage at all. It lasts and projects without being overpowering. Simply beautiful.
chiaradellavedova
This was my second imported perfume way back in 2012; I still have it, and it’s a powdery floral that fascinates me. It has significant projection and sillage.
carito_kyun
I truly love it. I associate powdery scents with freshness; wearing it after a shower is the best. It smells super powdery, like baby, just as others say. If you’re looking for that scent, this is the one. The first time I used it, I went heavy and got overwhelmed, so two or three sprays are more than enough. It’s become my favorite, and when this bottle runs out, I’ll keep buying it.
Barbie.a.f
Got it as a gift. It’s super floral with great sillage and longevity, but on my skin it smells like baby powder and gives off an ‘old lady’ vibe. I know some young people who wear it well, but it’s definitely not my style.
todayisabeautifulday
Smells like baby powder, which is exactly what I was looking for; seems perfect for layering.
danapetalorojo
A delicate violet and rose scent, incredibly sweet. Reminds me of baby oils but more feminine and powdery. I sleep amazingly well wearing it.
Guts98
Flower by Kenzo is a delicate powdery floral, a timeless icon that evokes a blooming garden with freshness and elegance. It stays relevant and sophisticated for any occasion.
Luciibelen15
True to its name, it’s floral: strong, long-lasting, and classic. It can sound a bit old-fashioned because it’s so well-known and appeals to all ages, but I love it every time I smell it. Its longevity is excellent, like other Kenzo fragrances. It’s the typical school-play scent, suitable for day or night, especially in spring but wearable year-round.
Gemi Payano
Flower by Kenzo is imposing; its blend of incense and flowers is radiant. On my skin, it accentuates the tangerine citrus and sweet vanilla, a cocktail of fruits and roses that fascinates me. I wear it lightly during the day so as not to be too aggressive in enclosed spaces.
aliciaouteiralf
I have a dupe that smells just like the original, and I’m writing this for anyone interested. No one ever asked what cologne I was wearing until I started using this; people told me I smelled spectacular. Since then, it’s a staple in my collection, day and night, winter and summer. The longevity is spectacular for the price; it’s the dupe brand starting with ‘S’ called Pink.
AntaresAres
It’s a pure floral fragrance, no secrets. I started with enthusiasm until halfway through the bottle and had to stop. I started hating it fifteen years ago. I’ve reconciled with Flower (I know it’s been reformulated), but I apply it sparingly because its floral soul saturates me easily. Does it bother me that it’s powdery? No, my nose has little patience for delicate florals that turn out to be dramatically intense. For a while in spring, the rest of the year… pass.
marpe77
Soft, floral, and talc-heavy. I’ve used it so much, both the original and an excellent Caravan (36) dupe. I didn’t realize it had frankincense; I never noticed it. I don’t wear it as much anymore, but it was my everyday scent for years: winter, fall, spring, summer, day, night, meetings, or formal dinners. It fits anywhere.
Hatsumomo
It always smelled like gastric juices to me.
