Floris London Cefiro is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2001. Cefiro opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Cardamom, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Floris London's Cefiro carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Floris Cefiro is a divisive citrus, often compared to CK One but with a sophisticated twist. While some find its opening too sharp or akin to cleaning products, others champion its beautifully blended, long-lasting dry down. It's a clean, classic freshie that's either a revelation or a disappointment.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its clean, fresh citrus profile and moderate projection make it ideal for office wear and casual settings, especially in warmer weather. It's not assertive enough for a formal event or romantic situations, as many reviews note its subtle sillage.

About

Cefiro opens with a vibrant, zesty burst of bergamot, lemon, lime, and mandarin, an invigorating citrus cocktail that quickly mellows. The heart introduces a subtle spice with nutmeg and cardamom, gently intertwined with jasmine's clean floral hint. This all settles onto a refined base of soft musk, warm sandalwood, and structured cedar, creating a fresh yet grounded woody aroma with a hint of soapy clean.
