In honour of the August 28 announcement of the The Orchid Show 2024: PURPLE! presented by Better-Gro, scheduled to take place October 5 through December 1, 2024, at the Selby Gardens, Sarasota, Florida,
SO Gardening spotlights the Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid campaign which stars Gucci Flora Brand ambassador, American singer/songwriter Miley Cyrus set against the backdrop of the Hollywood sign in Los Angeles.

The fourth fragrance of the Gucci Flora collection — Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid — is dedicated to the most fashionable scent ingredient of the year, vanilla, and a worldwide garden favourite: The Vanilla Orchid.

From livingcolorgardencenter.net: “Growing vanilla orchids is an incredibly rewarding gardening project. While they do take a long time to develop, the end result is incredibly satisfying — your own homegrown vanilla beans! Overall, the required maintenance for growing vanilla orchids in tropical climates is pretty minimal, so if you’re willing to wait it out, you’ll be in for some delicious natural vanilla to use in all sorts of sweet dishes.”

On to the fragrance!

Gucci’s first ozonic floral gourmand fragrance owes its unique energy to perfumer Marie Salamagne, whose talent lies in enriching scents with transportive allure.
