L'Interdit Burning Neroli

Burning Neroli is the boldest chapter in the L’Interdit story for me. I’ve tried and appreciated many of the flankers, but this one stands out like a flame in the dark. The original took time to grow on me it was an acquired love ... but Burning Neroli? Instant connection. It opens with that fierce burst of neroli bright, floral, and slightly citrusy but it quickly deepens into something earthier and more addictive. The patchouli and vetiver add this grounding intensity that gives the fragrance its “don’t mess with me” attitude. It’s powerful, feminine, and unforgettable. It’s not just a scent, it’s a statement. – Bhavna Darira Chesan

Tested it today I quite like it, it remained the OG dna without the bubble gummy headache inducing tuberose ... (sorry to the OG fans) replaced with an earthy and a bit woody dusty base~ opens with a sweet a bit candy like neroli !! A very nice opening for those who enjoy sweet scents like I do 🤣 But the base notes is where it got me 😍 I do think the base notes are quite similar with the jasmine one last year which I enjoy a lot too, but if you have already purchased that one I don’t see any real big differences in the dry down it kinda duplicated. But still please give this edition a try Update: just received my full bottle 😍

Arrived in the mail yesterday and I am smitten. I do not like the original L'Inderdit much. I do very much like L'Interdit Rouge. Burning Neroli in my opinion is very Neroli focused and I only mildly get L'Interdit DNA. Sweet but not too sweet. The patchouli is there but is not overwhelming. I really love this. It's not quite as dark as say the 1999 L'Occitane Neroli, not as strong as Au Pays Neroli Blanc Intense, and not as sweet as PDM Safanad but related to all of them and just lovely. I'd say it's a Springtime Neroli scent; it arrived at the perfect time.

This is my favourite version of L’interdit. It is so fresh, the Neroli is so pure and the sweetness of the original lingers gently through this composition. Did not love the original for its harshness, but this one won me over. Beautiful in summer heat, classy for day and night and I think year round.

I love this perfume. It’s sweet soapy neroli with a pleasant Vetiver and mild patchouli. It is a soft skin scent with little projection. I’ve been playing around with layering this with other perfumes. And it’s fantastic.
