Flora Danica was introduced in 1980 and manufactured by Swank. Royal Copenhagen was a division of Swank and the maker of the Flora Danica dinnerware. They gave permission to Swank for the use of the names and images on the bottles and packaging. The fragrance was an immediate success and Flora Danica won the 1981 Fifi Award for best new perfume introduction.
Flora Danica is a sensual, gentle feminine floral fragrance that is comprised of 284 flowers and plants indigenous to Denmark.
From a 1980 advertisement:
"Picture yourself in a time long past, standing in a meadow, where gentle scents of jasmine, rose, lilac, muguet, lily and carnation waft by you. Blend them together and you will find the very real fragrance of Flora Danica by Royal Copenhagen. Evoking the images of Denmark 200 years ago a gracious time when royalty and romance reigned supreme."
Swank discontinued the fragrance around 1986 much to the disappointment of its fans. It is still being made and distributed by Evyan Perfumes but the fragrance has been reformulated.
