O Amor, o Sorriso e a Flor is a studio album by João Gilberto, released in Brazil in 1960. The Portuguese title translates to The Love, the Smile and the Flower.

The album was initially released in the United States in 1960 as Brazil's Brilliant João Gilberto (Capitol ST 10280).[1]

Richard S. Ginell, writing in AllMusic, says, "This vitally important record introduced João Gilberto, Antonio Carlos Jobim and thus, bossa nova to the United States in 1961, a year before Stan Getz scored a hit with "Desafinado.... Several Jobim standards-in-waiting -- "One Note Samba," "Corcovado," "Meditation," "Outra Vez" -- were heard for the first time in North America on this LP." [2]
