Balenciaga 2012 EDP
Florabotanica
by Olivier Polge , Jean-Christophe Hérault
Balenciaga Florabotanica is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Olivier Polge and Jean-Christophe Hérault. Florabotanica opens with Mint, settles into a heart of Rose, Carnation, and Cannabis, and dries down to a base of Amber and Vetiver. Balenciaga's Florabotanica carries an Acquired verdict, a aromatic-led wear.
This cult classic is a divisive beast: a potent, green rose that evokes a fresh botanical garden with an edgy, almost illicit undertone. Its discontinuation has left a void, elevating it to mythical status despite its challenging notes for some.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Best Occasions
Its potent projection and longevity, combined with its unique aromatic and green profile, make it less suited for formal or conservative office environments. However, its fresh, clean character makes it fantastic for casual wear, especially in warmer weather, and even suitable for sports where its refreshing qualities shine.
