Floral Perfumes: the elegance of flowers sublimated by niche
What is a floral perfume?
The floral family is the most ancient family of haute parfumerie, since the first soliflore creations of the 19th century. It brings together perfumes whose central accord is built around one or several flowers — Grasse rose, Calabrian jasmine, tuberose, peony, hibiscus, lily of the valley, violet. From the founding floral bouquets (Quelques Fleurs, 1912) to the most contemporary readings, this family explores the entire range of olfactive femininity, in the great Parisian heritage tradition (Caron, Goutal Paris, Houbigant) and contemporary niche (Maison Crivelli, Closerie des Parfums).
Iconic floral creations at Soleil d'Or
At Soleil d'Or, you can explore this family across the catalogue, including notable signatures at Houbigant Quelques Fleurs, Caron Les Romantiques, Goutal Paris and Maison Crivelli for narrative readings, Perris Monte Carlo Les Parfums de Grasse for soliflores, and the Closerie des Parfums Exploration Rose for contemporary spice-rose pairings.
When to wear it, and for whom?
Floral perfumes shine particularly in spring and summer, when the warm light brings out the flowers' brilliance. Mainly feminine, the family also offers magnificent unisex creations in heritage tradition. Perfect for daytime wear, romantic occasions, and bright moments. For the most unique pieces, the discovery box at Soleil d'Or allows you to test several signatures before committing to a full bottle.
