Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition of Flor de Selva is built as a continuous scent journey, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of La Boticá is recognizable from the opening to the final trail. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum emphasizes the depth and body this composition needs.
The profile is unisex, which clarifies the composition character.
Right at the start you meet piquant warm top notes: Nutmeg and Orange. Exactly these 2 notes build voluminous spicy depth that is impossible to miss.
In the heart you meet Allspice, Floral Notes and Resins carrying a warm-spicy direction. In the base the structure settles through Cypress and White Cedar, shaping a earthy woody-resinous trail.
From the group perspective the profile is anchored in Spicy, Citrus, Floral and Balsamic. The palette also extends to Wood and Whiteflower. Within olfactory families the scent maps to Floral, Spicy and Wood.
In summary Flor de Selva sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best judged through real development.
