Orange Blossom Body & Soul Spray

Overall: 9.5/10 Here’s Why: Fresh, Floral, Sumptuous, REALISTIC to the T, Warm Orange Blossom. Singular, long lasting and mood lifting. The word ‘Aura’ is used in the name and it is SPOT ON. This is transporting stuff: I live in Laguna Beach, CA: and this is has taken me on a scent journey back two weekend ago. A memory so real, I can hardly believe this magical potion. On a drive through the San Diego Country Side (there is a small apple farming town called Julian where us locals vacation on the weekend for fresh apple pie, peace and quiet) there is hundreds of acres of orange trees. Groves as far as the eye can see. On this particular Saturday, it was a warm 73 degrees; I had the windows down and sunroof open. The spring blossoms on the orange trees were all sprouting to life and I was driving through magical fields of warm lofty scented orange blossoms. The warm air and light floral smell surrounding me and wrapping me in ts arms. This is a Euphoric moment I was sure would never be replicated. Enter Nest Body and Aura: A replica of that moment. In a bottle . This lasts all day, much like a perfume would – longevity is nothing to scoff at here, 6+ hours. Wearable for all occasions, but summer/Spring days make this gem a treat for the nose, body and soul. Great job Nest! Fans of Orange Blossom, rejoice!

I bought a bottle of Nest's Orange Blossom in a clearance sale online and received it today. I adore orange blossom and have been searching for an orange blossom scent that is similar to the discontinued VS Lace Orange Flower (which is perfect, soapy, orange flower loveliness)and... Nest Orange Blossom is the closest I have come! Overall, Orange Blossom Body and Soul spray is a delightful fragrance, a ray of sunshine in a bottle. It's very lush and round upon initial spray, calming to a sweet, clean, nearly perfect rendition of orange blossom with just a tiny hint of another favorite floral note, freesia. I know musk is rated highly in the vote for notes but I really don't get much musk. Now for the comparison between Lace and Orange Blossom - Lace is lightly more soapy and not as lush and full. I am guessing that it's the water notes that give the Lace a bit of an airier vibe. However, the actual orange blossom note is very much the same. I am overjoyed to have found Nest Orange Blossom! One spray and I can almost feel warm sun on my skin, sense a balmy breeze, hear a rustle of leaves - even in the dead of a northern Midwest winter! Absolutely gorgeous, could very well end up a to 5 fragrance.

Bought this a few years ago for $12 at TJ Maxx. What a shame that it's discontinued. This is a real gem! It's mostly orange blossom, but the tiare and tangerine are there to remind you it's not a soliflor. It has the slightest sweetness to it, and just a touch of a tropical feeling in the drydown. But mostly it's just a really stunning and inoffensive spring and summer scent. The longevity isn't great, but it says right there that it's a body spray, despite the rather swanky bottle. I find it lovely to layer with other florals for some longevity and complexity. I would love to find a good, inexpensive replacement for when this bottle is finished, but with the way I rotate scents, that won't be for a while.

Really lovely! Right out of the bottle I get a pretty floral scent, almost like a mix between a softer honeysuckle, something clean, and a touch of gorgeous orange citrus to round it all out. It pretty much stays this way without changing all the way into the drydown. Really straightforward, which is something I am begining to notice is a trait of this house. It's such a beautiful mix of distinct scents. This is the orange blossom that I have been dreaming of. I'm really impressed with this house. A blind buy I don't regret! Huzzah!

I wouldn't call this fragrance Orange Blossom. It tilts more towards jasmine, particularly Night Blooming Jasmin, that has a heady delicate slightly musky scent. This is a marvelous fragrance. the tangerine appears to stay in second place not overshadowing the florals. The dry down is a little too artificial for my taste, almost like a sweet orange candy. Still, this is one of my best buys in a long time. And I founf it at TJMaxx for $12,99!!!
