Floris London China Rose is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2000. China Rose opens with Peach, Raspberry, and Sage, settles into a heart of Rose, Violet, Geranium, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Floris London's China Rose carries an Acquired verdict, a rose-led wear.

Floris China Rose is a divisive, full-bodied rose that's far from a fresh garden bloom. Expect a rich, spiced floral peach concoction that some adore for its vintage opulence, while others find it cloying and disappointingly lacking in true rose character.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent sillage and exceptional longevity make it unsuitable for office wear, as many reviews highlight its strength. The rich, elegant, and often 'formal' scent profile, coupled with mentions of wearing it to 'afternoon tea at The Savoy' or for 'evenings', firmly places it in date night and formal attire territory.

About

Opens with a sweet burst of jammy peach and raspberry, quickly deepening into an opulent heart of heady rose and plush geranium, spiced intensely with clove. This strong floral accord settles onto a warm, earthy base of patchouli, amber, sandalwood, and vanilla, creating a rich, almost boozy and powdery finish. It's a proper old-school spicy floral that clings.
