Meanwhile, Florabotanica hung out at counters unwanted and unloved except by those enthralled by its very Tim Burton-esque bottle, which I admit drew my eye as well. The vetiver, amber and caladium leaf accord create a resonance of mossy and mysterious dark wood, whilst experimental scents of rose, carnation and mint accords add an exhilarating, freshness to the fragrance.
