Flower by Kenzo Poppy Bouquet Kenzo 2020 Eau de Parfum Florale

...I must say I like the scent!

Yes, okay, it is sweet but not in that caramel or cotton candy way, rather as mentioned, floral-sweet. And yes, it reminds me of several already available fragrances but in the end, it is just a little bit different....

At first, it is a bit overwhelming, citrusy and slightly sharp as well as quite sweet, then Poppy Bouquet becomes strongly floral (orange blossom-heavy although not listed) and after about 30 minutes, it becomes more subtle until finally, a lightly sweet, creamy, slightly woody scent remains on the skin, with a hint of pear coming through now (which I hardly noticed at first).
The H&S should not be underestimated despite the progression! I find the scent trail very interesting, which starts off strongly floral-sweet but becomes increasingly transparent and less sweet from the base, and picks up the pear again. I did not expect that, but I find it pleasant as the pear here appears fresh-green and not overly ripe-yellow.

The bottle shape is like that of its predecessors, the liquid is slightly rose and the flower is pink instead of red. Apart from the design, Poppy Bouquet has nothing in common with the classic Flower. And with Poppy? Well, this interpretation of a non-fragrant flower has only succeeded in my opinion in the very first version. Why then Poppy in the name is something one does not need to understand;-)

By the way, I think the ad for the fragrance is great, especially I really like the music. Unfortunately, I forgot who sings the song and what it is called. But somehow the song fits the scent.

And finally, here are the fragrances it reminds me of: L'Interdit, My Way, Alien, Voce Viva, The Only One Intense, Elie Saab. However, all of these are too heavy for spring/summer, so Poppy comes just at the right time :-) A scent for happiness and joy of life :-)

And what I also really like is the sprayer, it allows for fine dosing!
