Lumière Dorée

If you are a fan of citrus fragrances, I wholeheartedly recommend that you try Lumiere Doree! It really is a celebration of the orange tree ❤️ The opening is stunning, pure, fresh, juicy, sharp citrus. This stage lasts for around an hour. As the jasmine, amber and vetiver gently mingle with the citruses, the fragrance slightly mellows, developing an almost effervescent quality and an ever so light sweetness, just enough to soften a little of the sharpness of the opening. All of the notes are perceivable but if they are not taken from the orange tree, they stay there firmly in the background. Three or four spays gives stong projection for the first three hours, moderate projection for another three, before fading to a skin scent that remains noticeable for a further two to three hours. I have the body care products for this one too, although I sometimes Iike to layer it with coconut and monoi products which add a slight tropical touch. I'm feeling tired or low Lumiere Doree is an instant pick-me-up. This is a scent anyone can wear, any season, for any situation or occasion. Sunshine and happiness in a bottle! ❤️👌

They couldn't have named it better, as this fragrance smells like a bright sparkling yellow and gold shard of light! It has a fabulous opening that wallops you round the nose with tart, wet citrus joy! It then settles and smooths out into a really creamy orange infused jasmine. I sprayed at 9am this morning and it is now 5pm and I am still enveloped by it. The silage and projection are really impactful on me (which is unusual as perfumes normally fade away really quickly) The amber compliments the jasmine and they both soften the wonderful combination of neroli, bitter orange and bergamot.This has been a suprisingly satisfying sample to try out and it's going on my list as summer contenders.

Beginning is a very bright citrus bitter neroli, much louder and more intense then average neroli colognes on market) Middle notes are bit musky chemical on my taste and remind me of Light Blue D&G. Thanks god they did not last longer then 15 min. Base is a still bright neroli, but get a bit dry herbal notes. Overall I'd say it's not something extraordinary or unique, just a bright pleasant spring/summer fragrance for neroli lovers.

Another fragrance which deserves a few wears to get used to it. As others have picked up on, a very pleasant neroli forward floral, which relaxes into a gentle laundry style musk. It's deceptively long lived - the initial citrus/floral notes fade over a few hours but the base notes stick around as a soft skin scent for a lot longer. Very likely to be office safe and a good daily wear.

I love this perfume! It is utterly captivating and as a woman who adores perfume and who is always striving to find a new fragrance which is not being sprayed by everyone this fragrance was a great choice. I have never had so many compliments and questions about a perfume until I discovered lLumière Dorée at Miller Harris Covent Garden -Beautiful.
