Floraïku Sound of a Ricochet is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Sophie Labbé. Sound of a Ricochet opens with Vanilla, settles into a heart of Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood. Floraïku's Sound of a Ricochet carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Divisive yet magnetic, Sound of a Ricochet is not for the faint-hearted. It polarises with its strong character, drawing comparisons to MFK Grand Soir but with a unique, sometimes challenging, smoky-woody vanilla twist. It's a statement scent, demanding appreciation.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its potent projection and long-lasting nature, coupled with rich vanilla and woody accords, make it too prominent for most office settings. However, it shines on dates and formal occasions due to its sophisticated and sensual aura, while being suitable for casual wear if applied lightly.

About

Sound of a Ricochet opens with a rich, almost edible vanilla that quickly deepens with the creamy, almond-like warmth of tonka bean. As it settles, a smooth, buttery sandalwood emerges, creating a sophisticated and woody vanilla heart. Hints of smoky incense and a powdery undertone weave through, adding complexity while maintaining a luxurious, enveloping feel, reminiscent of antique wood or a cosy library.
