Balenciaga, the Spanish-Parisian fashion house, has created fragrances that move between modernity and classic refinement. Its scents lean mostly on wood, green, aromatic and floral accords.
Florabotanica, built on aromatic and green notes, is the house's most popular creation and offers an unconventional take on a floral perfume. Balenciaga Paris turns soft and dignified with violet and powder, while Rosabotanica follows the green, woody path Florabotanica opened. Among the older works, Cristobal blends wood and florals, and Rumba runs warmer with sweetness and white floral. There is also Balenciaga Pour Homme, a woody, aromatic option for men. It adds up to a varied catalog for anyone who wants fragrances with a distinctive point of view rather than safe, familiar territory.
