Levitating
Levitating by Floraïku is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, mandarin and angelica, moves into mate, black tea and clove and dries down to guaiac wood, bourbon vanilla and virginia cedarwood. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Angelica Musky, herbal root. Earthy and a bit strange.
Heart
- Mate Dry, smoky, bitter green tea. Toasted rather than fresh.
- Black Tea Dry, tannic and smoky. More astringent than green tea.
- Clove Hot, dry and dental. Powerful — a little goes a long way.
Dry-down
- Guaiac Wood Smoky, tarry and slightly sweet. Like a bonfire and roses.
- Bourbon Vanilla Richer, boozier vanilla. Darker than the standard version.
- Virginia Cedarwood The pencil-shaving one specifically. Dry, sharp and slightly sweet.
