Sparkling almonds sandalwood
Flora bloom forte by the aqua allegoria line by Guerlain is a lovely candied almond a la Guerlain paired with the most subtle and delicate tuberose, again a la Guerlain.

Not as 'uninteresting' as it may seem.
Went sniffing yesterday in a perfumery and didn't find anything that thrilled me, but went home with a sample of this.
I think this is a bit underrated as being mainstream, uninteresting and so on.
It is quite a beautyful perfume actually if it matches your taste. The color of the juice matches the smell perfectly, it's a very rosy-pink smell.
When smelling it on a teststrip, I immediately smelled an 'insolence-y' iris. I guess, on paper, you'll smell the basenotes more?
Because on skin it is very different, though, when imagining the smell of Insolence, you will still find a hint of it, only less 'violet' and the Tuberose is prominent. It's an other, more rosey, maybe even lemonade kind of sweetness.
In the drydown there is some airy quality to the scent, almost soapy, but in a more 'cosmetic' way. I think wind and breezes will add charm to this perfume.
Sillage and longevity are underrated here I think.
For me it is not enough my style to buy a bottle, but I appreciate the perfume for what- and for whom it's meant to be.

Thick floral concrete, mango butter with a powdery/woody sandlwood
I'm gonna preface this by saying I'm not sure Guerlain needed to make a Forte version of Florabloom. The other Forte versions from the Aqua Allegoria have often been justified (at least to my nose), but this one isn't. Here's why.

The only difference between both is the added sandalwood note. I found sandalwood to be pretty unnecessary in the sea of floral concrete and mango butter that Florabloom reminds me of. It enhances the powdery aspect and adds a woody note that disrupts the harmony of florals showcasing sweet and fruity facets. We already had violet and iris that added a pretty well-dosed powdery aspect to the perfume, so why add sandalwood? Tuberose also provided enough creaminess to avoid adding that note. I know the answer is the longevity of it, but I don't see better performance. The OG and the Forte version both become skin-scent pretty soon (as with all Aqua Allegorias).

It is still a lovely scent if you love florals and fruitiness, but the added sandalwood makes it a bit more woody and powdery. I wasn't going to add the OG to my collection, but this one is even further off from being added to my collection.

Harmless florals with a touch of mango
This is very close to the other, non-forte version of Florabloom. Both are fruity florals that are more on the floral, not overly sweet side. In both I get rose, violet and iris and a generally powdery vibe.

One of the differences is that I smell more of the mango note in Forte, it's juicier and more recognizable as mango specifically. Unfortunately, it's leaning a little sour, which is something I don't like in mango notes. I also get more of the tuberose, which makes the scent a bit creamier and not as dry as the regular version.

Like the name suggests, this is a little more intense, but in my opinion it's still on the light side, typical for the Aqua Allegoria line.

I honestly can't say that I like one version of this scent more than the other. Both are perfectly fine, but not particularly exciting. They're good summer scents for situations where you don't want to stand out, but still want to smell lightly fruity and not just vaguely fresh and clean. The notes sound better in theory than they really are. Guerlain can definitely do better.

Give the fragrance time
Since nobody is making the effort and there are hardly any positive statements, I want to do what you need for Florabloom and for a review: Patience and time.
I almost wanted to spray it on quickly and put it aside after a relatively short time, then write a short, more or less scathing statement. I was prevented from doing so.
However, when I put on Rosabloom, I first made handwritten notes, as I always do. Then I wanted to wait, I had other things to do. Then to write a statement. I hadn't looked here until then, so I tested blindly and only looked here today/no, yesterday, and first did my work in the menu and wrote the statement.
I found Rosabloom disappointing at first: yet another run-of-the-mill floral fragrance, sour and unpleasantly tart, green and - that's Guerlain: synthetic in the way of "falling with the door into the house" - I couldn't believe it. Then a tamed tuberose rose up and framed the fragrance. The synthetics disappeared. This tamed tuberose remained until the end, as I discovered much later.
However, there are some fragrances, such as Do Son and one by Organic Glam, which also smell with just a lovely tuberose.
First of all: No, Florabloom will never be my fragrance. I like the tuberose the way it smells in nature, but you have to like that. However, Florabloom is developing. During the third test, which I also extended to the décolleté, everything became the same as it was at first. Now I wanted to know exactly. And lo and behold: now fully applied, the opening, which was almost embarrassing for Guerlain, was only very brief and the "nice" tuberose immediately appeared However, during the 1st test, after applying and taking notes, I wanted to write a review in French about my favorite island, as was expected in the course.
Well, that's not so easy for me. I had already prepared everything, notes, ideas, the translation program within reach on the Smart - just in case, and I wanted to write it in the course website. But my computer said: "We've lost the internet connection due to poor performance, then what you can/could do to get back online and: Would you like to play? Umpf, no! All attempts were in vain. OK, you have other things to do. I forgot about Florabloom and turned my attention elsewhere. In the process, an increasingly sweet, creamy scent rose up from my arm. It was accompanied by a faint whiff of what I taste in mangoes, especially the milky, creamy, rubbery, sticky juice, when I snap off a leaf from my mango tree and tear it up a little to smell it: fruity, sweet and sour and delicious, but with a hint of conifer needles.
The net took hours to arrive. I forgot about Florabloom again. After a few hours, Florabloom was still there, just as medium-intense as it had been from the beginning. But now I smelled a mix of creamy-green-creamy sandal and - essential for Guerlain - vanilla and an almond note. Somehow distinct. That was (before) yesterday.
In the morning, I still smelled this scent faintly on my skin, even though I had showered.
So I did the procedure again. But now, after some time, I had the impression that Florabloom was developing again in such a way that I found and still find it quite pleasant. And yet, and yet, what did Florabloom remind me of?
Eureka: Samsara EdP. Could that be it? It's a very strong perfume compared to Florabloom.
My left arm was still free and I put a little spray on. But Samsara is really a different caliber and immediately drowned out Florabloom.
Too bad, I thought, now I have to wait and see. Now is this similar or is it because Samsara is so dominant. Although I only had a hint of Samsara on my skin.
But I used the time to struggle with the description of my favorite German island in French. (It was worth it, I already got a little heart, after all)
Now, after many hours, I can say that there are phases in which Florabloom smells similar to Samsara and then again not. At the moment, Florabloom is on its way again, with its coniferous, fruity mango note and docile tuberose, developing into an almost unctuous, creamy, green-sandy almond fragrance. It all sounds very nice. And it is.
Nevertheless, Florabloom does not charm me. Because Florabloom is always accompanied by a latent, unpleasant note that I cannot and do not want to identify with certainty. It is the unpleasant tuberose note that makes many fragrances with tuberose unacceptable to me.
Since Florabloom's longevity is very good, but the sillage is only medium to skin-deep and has no unpleasant emission, it can be worn on many occasions without any worries. However, you have to like it yourself. If Samsara is too strong and old-fashioned for you, you might be happy with Florabloom.

A very delicious fruity tuberose scent. There are probably many like it, but the slight hint of moss brings it down to earth.

Everything Florabloom already is, with a stronger powdery and woody sandalwood. Still nice, but I think I prefer the OG.
