Which Should You Buy?
This isn't your mum's Flower. Kenzo Oriental is a divisive beast: a love-it-or-hate-it incense bomb that captivates with its meditative depth, or repels with a sharp, 'unnatural' opening. If you appreciate a confident, smoky oriental, you'll mourn its discontinuation.
A budget read of Kenzo's Flower Oriental - that dark, powdery floral-incense where violet and Bulgarian rose meet a dry, peppery vanilla-incense. Eastern Takada captures the sweet, alluring, easy-to-wear mood but softens the original's spicy-smoky edge and leans the vanilla cosier. A warm, comforting take on a sophisticated cold-weather floral.

Its prominent smoky and amber accords and moderate sillage make it too heavy for most offices. However, its sophisticated and warm character, combined with a sensual vanilla dry-down, is perfect for dates and evening events, creating an inviting yet intriguing aura.
Seasons
A powdery floral-incense over sweet vanilla that radiates cold-weather warmth, sitting best in autumn and winter; the sweetness and smoke feel heavy in summer heat.
