FLORES
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark FLORES (Serial 74546262) was registered on the Principal Register to FLORES, S.A., a French corporation, but the registration was cancelled on Oct 25 2003 because the owner failed to file a required Section 8 declaration, so the mark is now dead. The registration covered Class 003 cosmetics and cleaning goods—essential oils, plant essences and extracts for perfumes, soaps, bath and beauty soap, toothpaste, face and body cream, lipstick—and Class 030 staple foods, specifically non‑essential food flavorings. A similar name used for products in those categories would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside those goods are farther from the scope shown here. The prosecution history shows the mark progressed through normal examination, received a Notice of Allowance, and was ultimately entered on the Principal Register before cancellation; it never appeared on the Supplemental Register. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 2003, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use “Flores” for cosmetics, soaps, or flavorings, because the dead registration still signals prior claim to those areas.
