Floris London Seringa is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1992. Seringa opens with Green Notes, Bergamot, and Violet Leaf, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Vanilla. Floris London's Seringa carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

Divisive and distinctive, Floris Seringa presents a potent, green floral, but its modern formulation has drawn fire for being overly synthetic. If you find a vintage bottle, you're in for a treat; otherwise, prepare for a polarising experience.

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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Seringa starts with a sharp, verdant burst of violet leaf and bergamot, like a dewy spring meadow. This quickly gives way to an opulent heart of white floral notes, particularly jasmine, lily, and rose, creating a sophisticated and full bloom. The dry down is a more traditional base of earthy patchouli, oakmoss, and frankincense, softened with a whisper of vanilla and musk, which some perceive as soapy clean and others as overly synthetic.
