From the brand - "'The darkest moments of the human soul exist because the light needs to shine in each of us.' Darkflorum is an elegant bouquet with intense and inebriating aromas. The opening, juicy and aromatic thanks to rosemary and citrus fruits, spreads a symphony of warm and intense notes at the same time: Rhum, dates, exotic fruits and flowers create a unique atmosphere, enhanced by the base notes, woody and enveloping. An elegantly interpreted fragrance, dark, but with a light that will never fail to attract anyone who perceives it."
Fragrantica - "This frag is giving rich vampire noble from an exotic land. Its sweet and salty, but in a very dark and moody kinda way. On me it also has quite a strong incensey undertone which really adds that gothic edge. ..."
Fragrantica - "...Dark Florum had me in a chokehold. I kept going back, trying to figure out what was making me behave like this. The pink pepper? The cinnamon? Was I about to develop another expensive attachment? ..."
Fragrantica - "Beautiful and unique. I have no idea how, but LP has taken a white floral fragrance, and not only made it unisex, but a bit gothic? ... With all of those florals, you would expect a feminine floral fragrance, but instead, you get a dark, slightly dirty aura. ..."
Fragrantica - "...The florals don’t feel soft or romantic — they’re thick, shadowy, and almost syrupy, like flowers preserved in smoke and liquor. ..."
Fragrantica - "To me it smells like Marc Jacobs Decadence (discontinued), but make it boozier, darker and more resinous. The iris stands out to me the most, and mixed with the woods it creates a moody, mysterious yet elegant scent. This feels unique- in a gourmand saturated world."
Fragrantica - "...It is dark, moody, and slightly unhinged in a good way. I’m certain that’s how I would describe myself during the early fall months. ..."
