Floraïku First Dream of the Year is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Aliénor Massenet. First Dream of the Year opens with Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, and dries down to a base of Iris. Floraïku's First Dream of the Year carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

A divisive scent, many find this orange blossom and grapefruit bomb beautiful and clean, but for a good number, it's just a soapy disappointment that's far too basic for its frankly absurd price tag.

About

First Dream of the Year opens with a sharp, zesty burst of grapefruit, bright and invigorating. This quickly gives way to a lush orange blossom heart, bringing a sweet, clean floral warmth. The iris note is subtle, providing a soft, powdery backdrop that rounds out the composition, aiming for a sophisticated, fresh laundry appeal. It's a citrus-white floral journey, with a whisper of elegance.
