Fruity Gardenia
I have to agree with Sherapop, I can hardly smell the iris either. It's a fruity and crisp gardenia scent on my skin. Summery and fresh.
I have a lot of respect for the house of Tocca, although I don't own any of their scents. All Tocca fragrances are feminine and easy to wear, and not to mention, affordable. There is something very stylish and quaint about them, and it's not just their gorgeous, round bottles.
Tocca Florence is for those flirty types of women. It's like spinning in circles while wearing a light Summer dress, knowing full well that while you're spinning, your dress is exposing more of your thighs. In that sense, it's happy and carefree.
The opening is a delicate mish-mash of fruits and flowers. I smell a lot of sweet pear and crisp, green apple playing alongside a dewy bouquet of gardenia and jasmine. Tocca Florence would make an excellent scent for young girls, especially those fascinated with the niche market.
Once settled, this fragrance becomes increasingly more musky, however the fruitiness remains. In some ways, Tocca Florence is simple, although that tends to be more in its favour. It's a quality fruity floral.
I'm glad I went out of my way to test Florence. Both this fragrance and Tocca's Giulietta have a pleasant, crisp apple accord. The longevity is thankfully quite lasting. I recommend.
