Fleur d'Oranger

There's something incredibly soothing about this perfume - something that feels just 'right'. I've recently purchased the perfume after totally falling in love with the body cream. In a strange way this scent takes me back to the happiest moments of my childhood, spent with my grandmother in her beautiful home and lush garden. I wear the body cream whenever my lover (who lives far off) comes over to spend the night - he never fails to take a piece of garment or bedding back home with him to sniff at ... so cute. I love perfumes, always have, and have a very large variety of them. But this scent stands out. Wonderfully uplifitng, warming and well - soothing. Love, love, love it!

I too have an original of this, and I adore it. I especially like to use it with Kiss My Face's Peaceful Patchouli liquid soap. For me, the two together are reminiscent of Lush's Karma, but far more effervescent and ethereal. By itself, FO actually smells a little like Chantecaille's Frangipane, but more citrus-y. No matter what though, every time I wear this scent, it makes me feel light and JOYOUS!

I have the original limited edition of this, so glad it was re-released! It is a lovely and feminine orange blossom touched with vanilla that has a simple charm. It is just soapy enough to be perfect on a hot day, but not so much that it smells like all the others of its kind. I really love it. I hope they brought back the body cream too - it's to die for!

I bought some of this when I was on holiday in Bruge, it's absolutely gorgeous, a real good one to cheer you up and make you think of sunny holidays. I have to say unlike many more expensive perfumes I've purchased it lasted all day. Unfortunately I liked it so much it's now all gone trying to find somewhere I can buy this from the UK is proving difficult.

Beautiful fragrance from L'Occitane's Le Couvent des Minimes. Very similar to the Cologne of Love and you get a much better value from the Cologne of Love. The fragrance layers beautifully and if you are an Orange Blossom person, it is an absolute steal. For those who are having trouble finding this, BeautyBridge.com ships internationally from the USA.
