    A little known perfume this dior, despite coming from a respectable house. Little diffused is however synonymous of Reserved. Well, I found in this fragrance a strong and very powerful aromatic explosion.Cipress, rosemary and basil are the proponents of this explosion. Then, the scent rests (in two distinct phases) on the fruity notes of pear and peach giving it a more gentle and slightly sweet character. Incredible closure that is generated with pear wood and lemon. Indescribable.
    A pyramid different from any other perfume. A small masterpiece that, although commercial, could envy a niche fragrance.
    Mastodontic creation, class 2001. Try to believe.
    GREAT!

    Electric pear is pretty much the thing here, it’s this fresh spiciness that kind of animates it. The musky base is generally a bit too clean for my tastes but it’s easy to understand its function in this “less is more”-type of approach. A quite unusual fragrance for Dior that merits a bit more investigation.

    Higher is one of my favorites in hot summer nights, as it loses roughness and bitterness.
    Cypress and rosemary are the most prominent notes, they develop little by little. Peach and pear are not detected (sadly).
    It becomes so particular and unusual on me as to be asked: what perfume are you wearing?
    LOVE LOVE

    Higher was one of my favourites in the noughties, it was the first masculine perfume released under Slimane’s era, targetted to a young, fresh, minimal and urban audience. I have taken longer than 15 years to repurchase a vintage aluminium bottle, and well, it is still an interesting fragrance, an unusual fruity masculine with an spicy-green character… but after this time something in its formula puts me off…
    Several months wearing it and now I know it is due to the peach note, totally out of control, rottenly sweet, even uncapable to be balanced by the plethora of green and spicy notes: basil, rosemary, cypress, cold spices. Still the fruity and woody pear accords are memorable and overall this fragrance is one of a kind so I cannot stop thinking if that peach note is responsible of Higher’s not being the great classic it should be. I have also checked the new crystal bottles now in stores and the feeling is exactly the same: a Higher fall from grace.
    Anyway ignore me, run to experience Higher for yourself before it is too late.

    I heart Dior Higher. love love love love absolutely adore love this cologne definitely in my top five. Its about what I want so I will go with my heart Starts out soapy like Calvin Klein Truth and Irish Spring Icy Blast soap opening but even more fresh then dries like Tommy or herbal base but still clean. Imagine you are a 19 year old young man in Paris with a cigarette and u wear only high fashion debutante clothes! So damn classy. So poetic. Probably my signature scent been thru three or 4 bottles now I can’t find it nowhere! Dont discontinue please!

    A masculine fruity scent that is very much of its time. The pear and basil accord is lovely, but it sits atop a musky aftershave base that doesn’t do anything for me. If the dry down was more unisex, I’d certainly rate this higher (excuse the pun), but as it stands, it’s a strange amalgam of fruity top notes with a generic masculine base. This is not Dior’s hidden gem – that honour goes to the masculine Dune – and I can absolutely see why Higher is in limited distribution.

    Had this during the early 2000s. It’s an amazing, very sweet fragrance but what I didn’t like was its old white bottle. It seemed to evaporate quickly. The longevity is weak as well, perhaps because I was in a tropical country and was sweating a lot. The projection was also weak to moderate.
    With its price now, I wouldn’t get a bottle, I’d rather find something cheaper but with staying power and silage.
    You can’t go wrong with, non-offensive and safe for office and gym.

    Higher is a very fragrant fragrance to be from the Dior house, it almost does not fit the other male lines of the house, in fact, it fits more in the fresh feminine lines.
    I find a well-scented aroma, delicate, subtle, pale, with aquatic nuances. The beginning feels fresh as the breeze of a spring, light, not overloading, with a very juicy pear note with a very aromatic point, of classic lines that evolves towards a drier woody, with nuances powdered without losing that initial touch of The pear and that fuses sensational in skin.
    I like it, and although the duration is correct has a great against, in this case the projection that is very weak, rather it seems a scent skin and it dazzles quite a bit, since it soon becomes very stuck to skin and for the price it has I find nothing in proportion.

    This and higher energy are two truly unbelievable fragrances. For such fresh scents it is really crazy just how classy they are and both are just as at home being worn at the gym or on your wedding day. They are really just quite extraordinary and the only reason that they aren’t popular is the fact that they aren’t as powerful as other men’s Dior offerings, it’s all I can put it down to.
    It’s an honour to have these in my wardrobe.

    A seductive fragrance olfactory located in the same range with Chanel Allure Homme (fruity and fresh).
    Compared with Allure, Higher does not have the complexity of the Chanel product, but it is more fresh, suitable for spring, warmer autumn and even summer.
    Special mention – smells incredibly natural, which is a rare thing on today mainstream perfumes – it’s a representation of the two perfumers – the artistic vision over a pear tree – pear wood, pear fruit accompanied by fresh notes of peach, lemon and basil.
    Although it was produced in 2001, it is not dated at all and is more expensive than, for example, Dior Homme Sport 2012, a situation that reveals that today the majority of mainstream perfumes were composed by lower quality standards.
    Both projection and longevity are at medium (but satisfactorily for a fresh fragrance) level.
    Fragrance 10/10
    Projection Medium
    Longevity 8 h

    I’ve got the vintage one just like the picture above in one clearance sale in Central Market, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
    What can I say, I’ve succeed to close 2 units of house within a month when I’m wearing this. Even the customer said I smell really good.
    Need I say more?

    Très Frais. Une odeur particulière de savon, mais on ne pourrait pas dire lequel ou nommer un type de savon. Ça sent le propre. Dure très longtemps, surtout sur le linge. Pas du tout envahissant ou dérangeant pour le autres. Très plaisant et rafraîchissant.

    Amazing fruity scent, very green, too. After I got it, I was immediately struck by realization that it very closely reminds me of Hugo Boss XY that I happened to have on my shelf. I compared the two – amazing similarity, with some minor differences. Love both frags.

    It smell strong when sprayed but when it is on my skin it has a mild fruity and a bit woody scent. Take note when I say mild, it doesn’t tickle my nose where it will make me sneeze. Although it is mild, it pulls girls to ask you what fragrance you wear. Its little feminine side added to your manly scent acts as a head turner for girls.
    Other men ignore this scent in shops since it has a little feminine scent. Don’t use it if you think you lack male pheromones.
    I spray it under my undershirt so only people close to me can smell it. My girlfriend hugs me and doesn’t want to let go when I wear this one.

    Got a gift set on eBay, unbelievably cheap, even it were only the fragrance. A blind buy but I’m very happy I went for it. My first impression was, I sprayed a glass of Bloody Mary on me. Basil and spice are prominent on my skin / to my nose. Pear? – I don’t know how the pear note is supposed to smell in perfumery, pardon my ignorance here. But I really love the scent. It’s very warm indeed, nothing too much, a very wearable fragrance.
    The drydown is more fruity / powdery. almost floral (but very subtly so). Extremely pleasing on every level.
    To my nose, the Higher shares DNA with Dior Higher Energy. The latter is like Higher but with a few more citruses squeezed into each bottle.

    After 10 years I found a bottle this afternoon at a mall.
    I tried to smell it for a dive into memories.
    I hope that tester was a fake beacuse what I smelled was completely different from what I remembered.
    I am really disappointed beacuse it was one of the best fragrance of the early 2000s.
    Now is unrecognisable.. what a pity!

    At one time I liked this but hardly ever wore it (because I liked others more), and now I find the aroma chemicals to irritating. I’d rather go with vintage Sentiment for Men these days, as that one doesn’t have aroma chemicals that bother me, but these are scents I rarely find myself reaching for – I have to be in the mood for a major change of pace from the kinds of scents I usually wear.

    I picked this up a week ago and I just can’t get myself past the fruit accord, it actually seems more of a feminine fragrance than it is a masculine one so I passed it on.

  21. :

    4 out of 5

    Nice scent, not offensive at all. It has a fruity accord that makes you feel clean, at the same time modern with hints of sweetness. Won’t get complimments like a wonderful, groundbreaking scent, but it’ll make people around feel comfortable with the smell. Longevity and projection are ok at night in the warm/hot weather, but during the day it loses a little of both. Recommended age for me is more for the young crowd, but it won’t smell weird on someone a little older (would limit do 35-40).

    It’s the best smell a man can have.I can’t think any better than this one!
    BUT
    Projection and longevity are very low and pour.That’s why this frag is underrated.

  24. :

    4 out of 5

    Understated and underrated. It’s a mystery why this classy, enigmatic scent doesn’t attract the usual hoards of Dior fans singing its praises.
    Perhaps it’s because this fragrance is not readily available worldwide?
    Which is a great pity as many will be missing out on its unique charms – a wonderful fusion of pear, woods and spices which combine to create an extremely fresh and original warm weather scent. The name Higher is perfect for this uplifting combination.
    Higher has all the hallmarks of quality and finesse you expect from Dior. It easily lasts a solid 8 hours on me and projects a decent scent aura.
    Definitely unisex – my partner loves to wear this one too and it smells divine on her.
    Pearfection from Christian Dior.

    This is one of the earliest perfumes I had back in 2001/2002. So my review here is not very accurate because I will only write of what I can remember back in the day.
    The smell is very fruity aromatic like pear-ish and lemon-ish combined in a good way. Very natural scent I would say and fresh. Kind of remind me of a fall weather, and the scent you smelled while walking in a garden full of fruits.
    If you’re looking for fresh smelling kind of fruity fragrance, higher dior is the one to go.

    Bana kalsa standart süpermarket parfümlerinin kaliteli ve güzel bir versiyonu iken çevremdeki herkes için muhteşem, ferah ve güzel bir koku. Yaklaşan herkes kokuyu alıp “ay ne güzel bir parfümün var” demeye başlıyor. Klasik ve spor giyimi ayırt etmiyor. Ergen yaşlardan 40 yaşlarına kadar herkese gider. Hatta atleitik ve yakışıklı bir erkek için 45 yaşına kadar yolu var bence. Kötü yanı ise kalıcılık. Gün içinde bir kaç kez yenilemek gerekli. Yine de kokusu güzel, sevmeyeni çıkmayacak ve övgü olacağınız bir parfüm arıyorsanız öneririm. Sadece uygun fiyatta ve indirimde yakalayabilirseniz alın. Yoksa Türkiye’de pek çok kozmetik mağazasında 250-350TL arasında fiyatlar verdiklerinden o kadar parayı da vermeye değmez diye düşünüyorum. Ayrıca burada notlarındaki armut kokusunu hiç de hissetmediğimi söylemezsem çatlarım. O kadar da meyveli bir koku alamadım. Belki biraz biraz bekletirsem ve şişenin içine hava girdikçe koku kendine gelir. Çünkü nedense elimdeki parfümlerin ilk yarısını kullanıp içine hava girdikten sonra asıl karakterine büründüklerini farkettim. Zaten ben de yeni aldığımda değil, şişenin yarısını görünce beğeniyorum kokuları.

    One of the first perfumes I bought when I start this addiction (2008-2009). I didn’t write a review back then because it always puzzled me. A lot of smells after and a try at the airport and now I´m using my old (age) new (because it’s full) bottle. My problem was the start, this pear-green-herbal (a mix is what my nose gets) smell, proeminent, but gets soft during the long drydown which is always constant and fresh. This character I´m linking.

    Good one from Dior , the peach & spices is all what i can smell but it works very good on me.
    Longevity : 4 to 5 hours.
    Sillage : 2 to 3 hours.
    Scent : 7 /10
    The only down side in my humble opinion is the bottle design it looks very cheap & plastic , it should have made from glass like Higher energy !

    ini parfum aroma fruity sweet terbaik yg pernah saya cium dan tentu saja terbaik di semua koleksi full bottles scent dalam koleksi saya. perpaduan antara buah pear, lemon, serta peach yg tercampur menjadi suatu aroma yg membuat mood yg jelek menjadi baik (pengalaman pribadi :p) walaupun longevity tidak terlalu baik dengan kulit saya, tapi parfum ini memiliki sillage yg lumayan istimewa. saya sangat beruntung memiliki parfum yg sudah agak langka (bisa dikatakan) di pasaran ini, dan absolutely 9/10.

    First of all the bottle has changed it’s design.It’s all white with a silver cap on top.Very good design.
    About the smell now..It’s divine..Imagine a time near the sunset,walking with a summer shirt,in the small traditional streets of a greek island.Where the basils and the jasmine plants of the white houses with the blue roofs create a very romantic and unforgetable memory..
    That’s what higher dior is..It’s excellent basil,mixed with fresh pear in Christian Dior quality!What can be better??
    The sillage coulb be a bit stronger.Not too much,because i believe that a spring/summer fragrance sould’t be strong sillage.
    I give 10/10 smell.
    6,5/10 sillage.
    10/10 longevity (it lasts on the clothes and the skin almost for 24 hours/).
    9/10 bottle design.

    They Say It’s Been Discontinued In Production, They Only Produce (Higher Energy) Now

  33. :

    4 out of 5

    I saw reviews on Fragrantica and went to try it out. It was meant to be a gift for a friend. It’s not the traditional men’s fragrance, with all the thick musk scent going on. First sprayed, the scent was fresh and light, just like after a quick shower. It can easily be accepted, even by guys who aren’t familiar with fragrance. So much better than Higher Energy. But sadly the airport I was at only sold Higher Enerygy, guess I’ll have to buy it for my friend somewhere else.

    Bubble bath! That was the first thing this scent reminded me of…I remember trying it years ago and have been looking for it ever since. Unfortunately I can only find it at very select Dior counters and I had feared it had been discontinued but luckily I have had a chance to revisit it and I’m so glad I did.
    Really fresh, amazing, musky, talcum sort of vibe quite minimalistic and very reminiscent of the recent Juliette has a gun, Anyway which I love.
    Top summer juice this one might have to endulge later in the year.

    One of my favorites.
    The first time I sniffed this one I thought: “surf dude-stuff”, not for me. Turns out that this is for me after all, even though I’m not a surfer. I just had to get used to it.
    Fresh, aromatic fougere, original. The topnotes are quite green to me and the basenotes remind me of a fresh forest, all mossy and woody.
    8,5/10

    Hey fragrantica managers! How about change this very OLD image? So out to date package, for God sake! There’s not so similar scents on Market, but I call Dior Higher the forever-young (not on a teenager way) brother of Tommy Cologne, but so much better, complex, refined, frozen-fruity-fresh scent for modern man. Well done. Excelent, exclusive, modern and not so popular scent.

    Pear and basil combo join forces with the other aromatics making this an exceptionally comforting fragrance. The pear note smells real, it is crisp along with the tinge freshness, of green basil. The rosemary and cypress add up to its herbal freshness with a lingering subtle spicy accord of the peppercorn. An excellent fragrance, indeed.

    Un buen perfume, para tenerlo como una opcion diferente, lo tuve hace tiempo, la mezcla citrica, frutal y amaderada lo hacen tener un aroma especial. La durabilidad es de aproximadamente 5 hs. Lo recomiendo para personas de entre 20 y 40 años. Calificacion General 5.5/10.

    I bought this when it originally launched in 2001 when I was living in Germany. It has since been my signature scent that I wear when I’m looking to really impress whoever I’m with. I cannot express how wonderful and fruity and classic this smells. It’s hands down my favorite Dior fragrance and in my top 10 list of all time. I’m just sad that its difficult to find anymore stateside.

    qualidade Dior,hipnotizante…marcante mesmo sendo sutil,aroma muito agradavel,leve e elegante,casual,classico e moderno…só poderia ser Dior e sua infinidade de perfumes bem elaborados. projeta pouco e fixa mediano é verdade,mas nao perde sua qualidade por isso.

    A very well done fragrance with a fantastic use of basil and pear. The basil is so fresh and tingly that I totally see how this fragrance could smell reminiscent of a chlorinated pool (and I don’t mean that in a negative way at all). The pear is very mellow but still fresh, and is just gorgeous against the basil. The whole fragrance smells extremely natural – not synthetic at all.
    This fragrance gives off the impression of a feisty, charming, adventurous young man far back in the Middle Ages, maybe Robin Hood or Link from the Legend of Zelda. It feels perfectly appropriate for jaunting around the woods, saving princesses, and slaying goblins with your bow and arrow.
    In the interest of keeping this review from getting too nerdy, I will just say that Higher is a great scent, and is a completely different kind of spring/summer fragrance for a man.

    This is an amazing, amazing fragrance! It’s one of those Dior fragrances that are often kept in the dark. Dior Higher just needs more recognition, more fans to come forward and speak of their love for it.
    Dior Higher is the scent of a sexy man. Think of a toned and tanned male swimmer; the faint smell of chlorine lingering on his skin, intermingling with the scent of his fruity hair gel and smeared sunscreen, and there you have Higher.
    Pear is not a note you smell a lot of in masculine fragrances. I’m quite enjoying this unique, fruity spin on things. If I were to describe Dior Higher in fragrance terms, it’s a slightly clean and fruity scent, with an odd oceanic and herbaceous approach.
    When you first spray Dior Higher, you think you’ve got it all figured out. In the initial stages it may strike you as bland and insipid, but do wait it out. Dior Higher gets better as the fragrance progresses. It has an alluring heart of rosemary, peach, pear, cypress and basil, which can’t be explained in words, it has to be smelt.
    Dior Higher is really quite complex, which was not what I expected to find in such a boring bottle as this one. It’s a fantastic, fresh daytime scent, which to my nose, stands out a mile from other citrus based colognes on the market today.
    It’s hard to categorize Dior Higher, as it is clean, aromatic, herbaceous, aquatic, fruity, citrusy and woodsy all rolled into one. I urge every man to give it a whirl, as you may be pleasantly surprised.

    How do they do it, man? How? :))
    Dior is the best. every Dior fragrance is perfect on my skin.
    Higher is very fresh/sexy/playfull/fun.
    I get pear a lot, which I love in the begining and it after an hour or two i get something woody.

    the only cologne ive bought 3 times. when i was younger this was my signature scent. till this day it still amazes me and reminds me of my teenage days in high school. only of the best fruity men’s cologne that is not too fruity and not too musky….just the right balance. i fucking love this one till this day.

  48. :

    I bought this way back in 2000 simply because I like the architectural design of the bottle. (Bottle? Please don’t mind on my vocabulary)
    The scent? Pear at its best. You could smell the pear notes along with aromatics especially basil with subtle rosemary notes. It’s very fresh, light and airy. Nothing smells synthetic at all.
    I dare say that Higher has the weakest silage compared to all other Dior perfumes, but it’s longevity is great. It lasts for 10+hr on my skin. I have purchased another 100ml in 2012, the juice is now in a clear glass bottle, just like Higher Energy.

    This smells very much of cypress at first, quite harshly green, but after a while, quite a longtime, it does evolve dramatically and does smell very sipcy, although by then it is much softer (less strong) than in the opening. I do not like the opening nor the first two hours more or less of it, but do find the spicy drydown quite interesting, because as for male scents I do prefer oriental and spicy scents. This scent’s best quality is from my viewpoint the progression. Overall, nevertheless, it is far from being one of my favourites, and I actually do not appreciate it that much because of the green conipherous theme which does not appeal to my taste.

  50. :

    5 out of 5

    Good thing i still got a tester for this one. Classic and with Outstanding type of fragrance. The only problem is longevity maybe 2 to 4 hours and stays close to the skin. But hey, it’s from the house of Christian Dior which i love the most.

    One of the best ever i had in my life. I still remember a middle aged woman who was actually quite shy saying me that you smell gorgeous. Just wanted to run away from the shop.lol.

    A light but very persistant smell. Delicate and flowery and almost too feminine to my nose now. I bought this in my twenties and it fell out of use. Not offensive since its subtle but I found since its so light it is easy to over do-it, the projection is rather good. I regifted the cologne but kept the bar soap, which is a nice change up for business suits and the like, when wearing cologne would not be appropriate.

    Higher Dior perfume is a very fresh and fruity, pear on all but a good dose of citrus very energetic, captures what this fragrance is a great feeling clean, but we are still far from Prada Homme.
    It also seems to capture a vague note of incense, although there is, the arc of the fragrance unfolds without major upheavals, but keeping intact its unique fresh spring between gusts of wind and the sun play hide and seek with the clouds , this fragrance can give the best average in the warm seasons and in my opinion can be worn at all times, see the stadium for an event or simply to wait in line at the Post Office.
    Good, but Dior has done even better.

    Very fruity scent here , Must be the pear -Its lovely ! and very unusual in a guy’s scent .It does sit close to the skin on me but I enjoy wearing this one during the summer months .Its unusual enough for people to ask ‘whats that your wearing?’ & for that reason I keep it in my fragrance wardrode 🙂

    I was, quite honestly, lost in the gorgeousness that greeted my nose upon smelling this, from the sample kristo so generously sent to me! I had tried Higher Energy in a spray sample from DIOR, but it was not exactly what I was searching for, HIGHER has met and exceeded my expectations. I grew up with bartlett pears trees growing all around our house and they have a very distinct cool green woody smell, the leaves are bitter and you can almost smell when the fruits are ripe in the air; DIOR has made a truly wonderful perfume built upon a “spine” of all aspects of the pear tree (blossoms, fruit, leaves and wood)…
    I like “fruity” notes in perfume; but very often they get overly “plastic” (read: fake) or entirely too sweet. DIOR Higher is a very refreshing fruity perfume FOR MEN! The opening of subtle juiciness from peaches and crisp, somewhat dry and refreshing pears with a twist of citrus is done so elegantly, and the addition of warm basil gives this that summery “leafy” sun-warmed feeling. As it dries, I swear I can smell the cascade of the white blossoms that fall like a floral snowfall in late springtime. Somehow, a sharp juniper and piney green cypress blend with hints of ever so slight spices to create something neither too green, nor too “hot” or “loud”. Parfums Dior has created something at once stunning and subtle, the delightful juxtaposition of summer fruits and pungent greens with both fresh herbs and dried spices and heavenly woody notes borders on the sublime! In the ultimate drydown, the “pear tree” note shines, covered and shining with a dew of very clean and sparkling musk; as the greens and woods and fruits all settle into a perfect olfactive portrait of childhood memories, sunny spring and summer days and a line of fruit trees bathed in sunlight. The wind blows their shiny dark green leaves and makes them laugh with joy. I can almost see, in my mind’s eye, suntanned young boys; hungry, but refusing to go home and give up any of summer’s valuable playtime, leaning against the trunks of these trees munching on the fresh fruit…and then throwing the cores at each other, playfully, before running off to have yet another “adventure”. THIS may be the very best DIOR men’s release I have ever smelled!
    Sillage: good then closer
    Longevity: very good
    Overall: 5/5 A New Favorite!!
    Upon reading this perfume’s “notes” list, I knew this was gonna be awesome (C’mon…it’s DIOR!) but I had NO IDEA just how wonderful! Usually, I usually like darker, heavier more “rich” scents with pungency and bitterness; HIGHER is almost the antithesis of these things: subtly sweet, just fruity enough and resplendent with heavenly woods and aromatic greens and a sheer, but sensual, kiss of muskiness. On continually re-sniffing my wrist…and continuing to inhale, exhale and inhale slowly; the scent becomes something even more cool and green with an almost balsamic aroma that never gets too heavy or tiresome. I AM, without a doubt, HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOOOOOVE!!!

    It starts off smelling just like Tommy, and dries down smelling more like peach and lavender. The flavor and reminds me of a something my mum used as hand soap
    Go by the majority vote and try it for yourself.

    My favorite fragrance of all time, recently bought my second bottle, because it is that good. In the beginning, you can smell the pear and citrus notes, but dry down to a nice woodsy and spicy notes on the skin. great sillage, but some people find it too strong, and some of my friends complain that when i wear this, it totally overpower their colognes.

    An EDT with a very pleasant smell of fine wood, quite soft and elegant aroma, middle and base notes of fresh wood.
    One of those scents that are perfect for the warmer months. It is perfect for hot afternoons with flax clothes guayabera shirts. For every age range a little reminiscent of the elegance of Romance for Men by Ralph Lauren, recommended.

    I love this Dior, very underrated fragance i think. light could be, but is very permanent, aromatic, natural and organic, many others fragances tried to be similar but Higher stand in other kind of line.
    Minimalist fragance, lovely and unique.

    Delicious! It’s fresh, but not citrusy fragrance, which I usually dislike. In my opinion, it consists on a mix of green, woody and spicy notes. I consider it stylish and fancy, even smells expensive. A good job by Dior… I only believe it could have better longevity, but sillage is great. It’s noticeable and I got compliments from wearing it.

    At first spray all you get a syrupy pear scent. Its linear stays the same from the first spray until the drydown. It also stays very close to the skin.

    This isn’t really a men’s fragrance is it?
    I tried it on yesterday at a local discount shop, where it was selling cheap. The packaging didn’t disclose much, and while I should have guessed from the bottle which isn’t really pretty enough to be a lady’s perfume bottle, that it was a men’s scent, I didn’t put it together.
    I sprayed. It was a light and uneventful little perfume. Floral. Not a single flower listed, b
