Spring River
Spring River by Floraïku is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with lemon, petitgrain and peony, moves into ylang-ylang, heliotrope and lily of the valley and dries down to musk, vetiver, patchouli, ambroxan, sandalwood 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.
- Petitgrain Bitter twigs and leaves of the orange tree. Dry and a little green.
- Peony Pink, watery and slightly peppery. Modern and inoffensive.
Heart
- Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.
- Heliotrope Almond, vanilla and powder. Smells like marzipan and old-fashioned makeup.
- Lily of the Valley Clean, green, dewy floral. Reads as 'fresh laundry' to most people.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
