roseus Report post Posted July 24 Beautiful orange blossom note. It's heady and slightly bitter, and slightly fruitier than other orange blossom notes I checked it against (that don't have fruit notes in them, obv). So I want to say there might be a bit of an orange zest note in here because I don't generally find neroli fruity/citrusy (and I literally just learned neroli and orange blossom are *technically* different- but this has that bitter headiness I associate with neroli). Like it just has a hint of orange-ness that makes the blossom more identifiable but just could be something about this orange blossom/neroli note. Anyway this is definitely floral, and sort of sexy and beachy to me. Good throw but not overwhelming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topazphoenix Report post Posted August 3 To me this orange blossom is the same one in Paramatman. Simple and clean floral. Very pretty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poenari Report post Posted August 21 I'm wearing Fleurs D’Oranger HG as a body spray today. I've already tested it in freshly washed hair, but I wanted to give it a full test and am really loving it! I'm rarely attracted to any scents with citrus, and I realize this is orange blossom, so not technically citrus. I can see why I love this- it's a deeper kind of floral, with a hint of muskiness to it. I read that orange blossom pairs well with "oriental" notes, so that makes a lot of sense with my preferences. Many florals, especially white florals, go screeching into my sinuses, but this doesn't. It's the kind of floral I like to wear in the heat of summer. Lovely and I think it's a great addition to the general catalog! Thanks Puddin'! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miyabi Report post Posted September 12 Concur that this is a deeper sort of floral--to my nose it's a pretty rich neroli. Still on the fence on how I feel about it, but it is very floral and fades a bit after some wear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedPersimmon Report post Posted October 6 It's 84 degrees F here indoors, and I'm getting a fresh, bitter, green neroli. There's a hint of orange fruit, but this is noticeably bitter neroli to me. This is great for summer--not too sweet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theseagrows Report post Posted October 8 (edited) this is a bitter, green, woody orange blossom. it's less floral and a bit more woody/masculine leaning for me. i think i get a sour orange rind too and/or bergamot maybe (?) it's refreshing in hot weather.
