Really not keen on this one before – which is a surprise as I have enjoyed (even loved) every other Kenzo I have tried.
On me this is a really dull, fruity scent. Almost sour and oddly sort of sharp at the same time. Aside from the occasional hint of Rose, the flowers never really develop on me.
L: Moderate
S: Moderate
Just not my cup of tea.

I like this perfume. In fact, I have a soft spot for Kenzo’s fragrances. I like many of them. Floralista is great to wear in the summer, I was wearing it a lot when I was going to the beach. It’s quite weak on me, and has a sour note, but it’s like flowers and fruit in bloom together, very pleasant. And somehow mature. No rose here but it brings it to my mind too. Maybe it isn’t the biggest masterpiece by Kenzo, yet it has charm and it’s optimistic.

I was expecting this to be more flowery. It’s quite nice, but too fruity for its purpose.
I know it’s not on the notelist, but on my skin became so fruity… maybe because of this tropical extreme heat in my country, IDK….
I was hoping that maybe would dry down more floral on my skin, but nope nope. Opens very juicy and gets softer quickly, which is nice… The blend between peony and the fruitness is good! Bad longevity though.
Anyway, good scent but wrong advertising.
I would say it fits more summer than spring

Floralista is a very nice fresh spring floral. The fruit blossoms are gentle but by no means shy. To my nose this is very much like walking through an apple or pear orchard in full bloom on a sunny breezy day. Not heady or too sweet. Very carefree and easy going. Although I’m looking for an easy floral for spring, florals and fresh are always a crap-shoot on my skin and while this is not bad at all, Floralista is a bit “too fresh” for my tastes. It’s still quite chilly out so I will try it again when the weather warms to make my final verdict. I’ll update then. But for floral lovers looking for something really pleasant and gently sweet, lady-like this is worth a try.

Floralista was a very nice surprise! Kenzo last releases having been less than impressive to me,I was wondering, but no it smells very pretty, creamy, real nice floral, it is soft yet it lingers well.the apple blossom smells pretty, with the peony trailing behind it..after a few hours I can still smell it around me..good job on that one! it has some similarities with EL Pleasure in Bloom, although I like Floralista better, it is brighter, overall better. it is a bit sweet in the drydown, and easy to reach for. I will add the bottle is real nice too.

Today i have tested it for the first time in tax free shop and i must say that it is a very very good floral fragrance. The notes didn’t sound promising, but the actual scent is a great one and now i will get certainly several bottles of this beauty. It makes you feel like you’re standing in a garden in full bloom on a warm sunny late spring day. Delicious i must say.
At first it opens with a bit sour combination of apple blossom and peony, and i had fears that it might stay that way through the whole composition until the very end, but after 15-20 minutes it becomes much more softer, thanks to the peach blossom, which i didn’t detect a first at all. It turns into more creamy oeachy delicate yet strong scent, which i haven’ t smelled in countless other releases. Very good indeed, i enjoy it very much and surprised to see such a good fragrance made for a tax free retail. Normally these kind of fragrances are bland and generic but Kenzo positively surprised me this time.
I don’t smell any pear gladly, or if there IS one, it is not domnanting at all but accompanies other notes.
Kenzo has made few good scents for tax free retail in the past and this is another great example. I feel like it will become one of my favorites for spring, but it is also good for autumn. Somehow i feel like it would be too strong for summer, at least for me.
Longevity could be better, it lasted around 4 hours on my skin.
P.S. on paper it doesn’t smell at all that good as on my skin. Peach blossom note does not develope or projects much on paper, as much it doeson my skin.
