Flying South

Bright, juicy and effortlessly wearable

Flying South is one of my favorite Floraïku fragrances. The melon really stands out to me and comes across almost like honeydew, with a slightly artificial, candy-like fruitiness that reminds me of the smell of Strawberry Shortcake dolls. I actually really like that quality because it makes the fragrance feel playful and nostalgic instead of just smelling like a typical fruity perfume. I also get the hibiscus and a soft musky quality underneath the fruit, which gives it more depth and keeps the sweetness from feeling flat. Overall it smells like musky melon, hibiscus, and summer fruit to me. It’s bright, sweet, a little unusual, and incredibly addictive. I kept going back to smell it, and I ended up loving it enough to buy a full bottle.
