Gong

Floraïku Gong is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Gong opens with Mandarin, Yuzu, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Pepper, Sweet Pastry, and Benzoin, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Sandalwood, Guaiac Wood, and Amber. Floraïku's Gong carries a Statement verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This citrus gourmand is surprisingly divisive for a brand usually celebrated for crowd-pleasers. Some find it a graceful, meditative tea scent, others a metallic mess or just plain underwhelming. It's a risk, but potentially a rewarding one for those seeking something unique.

Also Works:
Office Date

Its moderate projection and serene, elegant character make it suitable for casual wear and dates where an intimate, refined scent is appreciated. While some find it too gourmand for the office, its subdued nature prevents it from being overtly distracting. It's perhaps a touch too relaxed for truly formal events and definitely not for sport.

About

Upon first spray, Gong bursts with a vibrant, almost effervescent citrus, thanks to the yuzu and mandarin, sharpened by a playful pink pepper. This zesty opening quickly mellows into a sophisticated sweetness, hinting at baked goods and a comforting warmth from benzoin. The journey concludes with a creamy, woody base of sandalwood and guaiac wood, grounded by vetiver, leaving a soft, somewhat ambered trace that evokes a serene tea ceremony.
