Sirena
Sirena by Floris is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with jasmine, marine accord, bergamot and pink pepper, moves into white flowers, peony, rose and red berries and dries down to musk, patchouli and sandalwood. Expect around 5 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Marine Accord Generic 'ocean' — salt, air and water. Clean and uncomplicated.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
Heart
- White Flowers A blend of creamy white petals rather than one named flower.
- Peony Pink, watery and slightly peppery. Modern and inoffensive.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Red Berries Generic jammy berry blend. Bright, sweet and crowd-pleasing.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
