Prodigieux Néroli Le Parfum

It does smell like neroli. Although, there is none in the notes above. You can not call a perfume Néroli without putting any in it, that would be bad for business. So, I had to have it since I love the oil and Nuxe body care in general. It's very very green, zesty and aromatic. Often neroli soliflores are given golden, honey like glow with orange blossom and immortelle and they are lovely. If the composition is not too sweet or thick. Not this one, it's really green, minimalistic even. I smell lime too. Some lavender and musk. It may not revolutionize modern perfumery, but does it has to? How about simple things in life? It's an honest little perfume, very well and tastefuly done. Even performance is correct. If you like your neroli green and invigorating, and some body care to go with, you should give it a go. I'm certanly not regretting it one bit.

I love this. It smells very much like 4711 to me. If you're wanting a long-lasting, more powerful version of that one, this is it. It has that same, very specific citrus note that's super bitter and has a harshness to it. That note works as a mood booster for me and is why I'm so drawn to this scent, but I could see it being a complete turn off for some people. It's screechy, but I'm kind of obsessed with it. Because of that, I think this one is more suited for cold or transitional months, like spring and autumn. I have a feeling this one might be headache inducing in the heat of the summer.

Had a chance to sample this one evening at a pharmacy in Rome. It lingered all through the hot night and through dinner. I couldn’t stop smelling the back of my hand. It is natural smelling, clean, bright, and slightly medicinal (perhaps from the petitgrain and lavender.) It was magical. I’ve had the Nuxe neroli oil since it came out a few years ago. I like it, but the scent fades immediately. This is similar but much nicer—it’s what I hoped the oil would be. It’s not super long lasting, but decent. Will look for a discounted bottle.

Was a bit apprehensive blind buying this one but the risk paid off for me! I had to do 2-3 tests for my nose to fully appreciate the scent- it is linear clean laundry type of smell that stays on for over 6 hours when you overspray- well worth it for the price! It does have a beautiful neroli scent without using neroli which is quite interesting too. Would say this is a perfect office scent or clean girlie type of fragrance. Love for me!

Nobody ever needs to buy Neroli Portofino ever again :) This really is beautiful. It's creamier and smoother than 4711 and not an absolute rip off as per the above! If you love Spanish baby colognes this will feel like the same vibe but more luxurious. The body oil is a dream too. Layer them for longevity but don't expect a long lasting scent, after all these notes are fleeting.
