I'm not into fruity notes and definitely not blackcurrant - but this scent is insanely good and worth all the hype
One Umbrella for Two by the French house Floraïku is a spectacular, luxurious and highly photorealistic gourmand fragrance in a Parisian café style, built on Asian ingredients. Perfumer Alienor Massenet aimed to evoke the romantic image of a couple standing under an umbrella in the Paris rain, stepping into a café to warm up. Inside, we are greeted by hypnotic aromas of freshly baked cakes and pastries.
The fragrance opens with blackcurrant and puffed rice in the top notes, followed by a heart of Japanese green tea known as Genmaicha, offering a nuttier profile than traditional matcha and evoking the sweetness of certain rice confections. All resting on a creamy, warm base of vanilla, musk and dry cedarwood. The lasting impression is that of a creamy, freshly baked cream cake.
According to Gents’ fragrance experts, this is one of the five best gourmand fragrances in the world.
The packaging is available in two sizes: 50 ml or 30 ml. The 50 ml includes a beautifully crafted cap and a 10 ml travel spray that fits inside the cap. Note: The travel spray is not included with the 30 ml.
Top notes: Blackcurrant absolute Bourgogne, Puffed rice
Heart notes: Cyclamen, Genmaicha tea extract (matcha tea)
Base notes: Musk, Woody accords, Vanilla, Cedarwood essence

Have been looking for my signature perfume for many years and finally found it. Warm, sensual, and full of sweetness. I always get so many compliments when I wear it. And the bottle itself is real quality craftsmanship. Expensive, but worth the money!
Beautiful scent, which at its best smells like rich blackcurrant jam. At certain temperatures, it shifts to a metallic cedar, which I don't like as much.
Very lovely fragrance
Smells wonderful!
I agree with Frida, this is a masterpiece. Absolutely fantastic perfume! Smells like blackcurrant juice and cream cake all day when I wear this!
Most fantastic perfume ever! A work of art.
