Ortigia Sicilia Florio is an Eau de Parfum. Florio settles into a heart of Passion Flower, Iris, and Narcissus. Ortigia Sicilia's Florio carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a divisive floral. It conjures images of sweet, sometimes soapy blooms, but a fair few reckon it leans a bit 'old-lady' and can be a headache waiting to happen. Definitely not a safe blind buy, despite what the pretty bottle suggests.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Fall

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

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Date Casual

Its intensely floral and somewhat 'mature' profile makes it less suitable for a professional office setting. It could work for casual wear or certain dates, but the poor sillage and longevity reported by reviewers mean it might not make a statement at formal events or last through a workout.

About

Florio opens with a heady, sweet bouquet of passion flower, immediately followed by the rich, honeyed powderiness of narcissus and a touch of elegant iris. It quickly settles into a predominantly floral affair, with hints of green freshness and a gentle, almost fruity undercurrent, all wrapped in a powdery softness that some find clean, others a tad cloying.
