Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cefiro EDT
Floris Cefiro is a divisive citrus, often compared to CK One but with a sophisticated twist. While some find its opening too sharp or akin to cleaning products, others champion its beautifully blended, long-lasting dry down. It's a clean, classic freshie that's either a revelation or a disappointment.

A luxurious blend suitable for upscale occasions with a warm, spice-forward aroma that's perfect for transitioning between seasons.
