Flying South
Flying South by Floraïku is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with lemon, mandarin and coconut, moves into melon, hibiscus and georgywood and dries down to amber and white musk. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Coconut Creamy and tropical. Suncream in the best possible way.
Heart
- Melon Soft, watery sweetness. Often paired with aquatics.
- Hibiscus Tart, lightly fruity petals. More juicy than perfumed.
- Georgywood A lab-made wood with a velvety, ambery hum. A close cousin of Iso E Super.
Dry-down
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
