There is documentation and some explaining on why she must have chosen them, plus info on the scents themselves (of course a bit more basic since the site isn't addressed to the hardcore perfumephile who knows everything).

If Floris was indeed bought at the time it is suggested by the receipt to be bought, then it might have been it. But it's non conclusive.
