by Tocca
Tocca Florence is a strongly floral, gardenia-forward scent with a crisp, juicy apple and pear opening that adds freshness and balance to its lush white floral heart. The scent is known for its elegant, radiant quality that evokes a blooming garden in spring, with the gardenia remaining dominant throughout the wear. Its principal notes are a blend of gardenia, tuberose, jasmine, and a green, slightly bitter leafy undercurrent that helps prevent the scent from becoming cloying. The fragrance is well-blended and linear, with no significant evolution or development, making it an uncomplicated yet highly memorable white floral. It features moderate to strong sillage and longevity, making it suitable for daytime wear, particularly during spring and summer. The scent is effusive and occasionally described as 'overpowering' or 'cloying' by those sensitive to strong florals or indolic notes, but many users find it refreshing, clean, and deeply feminine. It's praised for its realistic gardenia character and suitability as a signature scent for those who adore white florals and enjoy a soft, elegant, youthful perfume.
