Orange Flower

Light Orange-Flower with Smokey Near-Cinnamon Crackles... Overall an orange-flower scent, with all the other notes working to build the orange-flower, but opens with a burst of neroli backed up by mandarin & bergamot. The opening neroli here is slightly sharp & leans crackling, dark & smoky in a way that makes it work for evenings as well, with clean, smoky, citrus, green & fresh facets. Something that might be worn by Amy Adams in Nocturnal Animals (2016), or late at night in the slightly smoky lounge of a tropical resort. The neroli lingers while the opening segues into a heart of orange-blossom complemented by jasmine & lily-of-the-valley accents rounding it out, with fluffy, white-floral, citrus, fresh & green facets. The overall orange-flower here is a fresher take with a smoky finish, rather than a dense, clean & creamy one, although there is some sweetness. This all rests on a floral support base of white-woods, musk & white-amber. Performance is light-moderate overall and I have no complaints for summer wear (I don't think this has strong enough performance for colder months). I can't stop smelling my wrist. It's a love for me. Enjoy! Update 09/08/24: layered this over Cinnabar Estée Lauder (2015) this morning, and the spicy/smoky oranges go well together. Still a love. Update 05/10/25: There's just something about this scent that keeps bringing me back. It's the spicy smokiness that's nearly a cinnamon mingled with neroli to accent the orange-blossom. This is a lighter scent, and although it's gotten a little stronger, I think it will remain a fairly light summer scent. I get arms length projection for 1-2 hours after which it becomes a skin scent for another 1-2 hours. Love it.

Orange flower is one one my favorite notes and I own several Orange blossom perfumes. My signature scent is Narcisse Noir,if someone who loves perfume, like I do, can have a signature scent. In other words I love orange flower, blossom, neroli, or orange. So I had to have this. It is pretty much straight orange flower with just a hint of other florals underneath. Maybe jasmine or Lotv. I do not smell any amber or woods. It is so pretty and refreshing. Great for hot summer days! It does have pretty good silage, but does not last very long. It is not very expensive however and it is light enough to spray as much as I want. Sweet, simple, and oh so pretty!

This is a fresh sparkling citrus scent on me. It's very uplifting and to my nose it is reminiscent of Lancôme's O de Lancome on opening. As it dries down it becomes a little soapy but then the orange blossom and Jasmine comes in and finishes it off beautifully. Overall it is an effervescent, revitalizing fragrance. It's beautiful and I think it will really bloom in warmer temps. Highly recommend if you enjoy fresh white florals.

My absolute favorite! The perfect fresh and feminine scent, it’s a summer vibe, it’s fresh and sweet, I have the eu de perfume, need to buy it again!

I have the Rose and the Orange Flower. I bought both blind. The Orange Flower has a Mediterranean feel of oranges to it. That freshness and vibes that I associate with neroli colognes such as in the Acqua di Parma ones or Tom Ford's Neroli. Please, it is not the same quality of course. BUT VERY similar to the dry down of Guerlain's Eau de Guerlain (I own) Not sticky sweet at all, not heavy. It is not an orange popsicle. It does not have an aquatic nose to it. I have the Coty L'Origan and it does not smell like it to my nose or my arms, at the time of spray or as it wears (L'Origan is powdery). This is in a beautiful bottle with the ODLR typical top flower designs and I am happy to have it. Wear it in the Spring or Summer, warm holidays. Let's all say AHHH! PS.Now I am curious to buy the Jasmine (green color) bottle! I am still taking in the aroma and playing with my thoughts on the Rose

This is a nice summer fragrance. The amber and white woods finish gives it a little extra at the finish. I have other true neroli so I would say this is not a real neroli, just more of an orange zest with a nice finish. I have many ODLR perfumes and can tell that these newer frags are a little different and not as complex as before since the newer company has taken over. Not as long lasting or deep as a signature ODLR but it is still a nice lighter version and a great summer fragrance.

Smells like sunscreen, definitely a summer scent. Reminds a lot of of Sun di Gioia Giorgio Armani. This is a good choice after a morning shower to spray on, grab some coffee and go on about your day. Makes you happy.

Very light orange blossom scent. Natural and pretty. Doesnt last long. For those who like the notes of neroli and orange blossom, but not in excess

I love orange flowers and this subject is supposed to be my stuff..BUT..not here! The projection of a perfume here is close to a zero..Good that I had an opportunity to test it in the local supermarket. (They somehow has started to sell this item). So, I have applied 3 times this Orange Flower on me..3 times..right straight on my hair, neck and skin! The result is: I did not feel anything at all! Quite shocking thing! The fragrance does not starts even! I will pass..

I’m sad to say it but this just... isn’t good. I smell orange (not orange blossoms) for like 3 seconds after I spray it and then poof, gone. I’ve literally sprayed it 10 times into the air in front of me and had the same experience. The bottle is beautiful and I’m glad I didn’t pay much for it.

I really thought I would like this, because I do like the"parts"...but sadly I don't. It comes off unspecial, and mass market to me. I was going to blind buy, but then found a tester... Will give this one a miss... Try before you buy...

Thankfully, I smell no freesia. This is primarily about lovely, fresh neroli augmented tastefully by mandarin and white musk. Very much a neroli based treasure, strong and vibrant! I see where the L'Origan comparisons are coming from, as there is a bright neroli opening to L'Origan. But that is where the similarity ends. L'Origan quickly becomes a gorgeously spicy-warm Oriental. Another comparison might be Love2Love's Orange Blossom and White Musk scent. It's heavier on the orange and lighter on the neroli than Oscar's offering, but they could be sisters, easily. I find Oscar's longer lasting and Perhaps more expensive smelling, while Love2Love's has moderate longevity and lacks the POW of real smelling neroli as the focal point. This is not to say that one smells 'better' than the other, especially if you prefer more citrus than citrus flower! It's all about personal taste. I'm very pleased with both as affordable gifts for orange blossom lovers. :)

I have tried all three of the new Oscars. The Rose, Jasmine and the Orange Flower. This one is my favourite. It is a bright and and crisp citrus with the warmth of mandarin. The floral is not sweet but light and fresh almost like an orange flower soap. There is a sharpness to it in the beginning that does soften down. If there is vanilla in this, it does not come through with my skin chemistry. For $19.99 at my local pharmacy it was an easy buy. Would be good for any season.

My addiction to perfume has fully taken over my life lol today while browsing the 19.99 clearance rack at shoppers drug mart I stumbled upon this! Now I've had several ODLR perfumes in the past and have loved each and every single one so I did hAve slightly high expectations and sure enough it did not fail me! It's another one that I love love love! It's very citrusy and fresh smelling. Perfect for summer. I love this!

this are the notes listed for this one The exotic Oscar Orange Flower of Oscar de La Renta, is a source of inspiration for his gorgeous floral fragrances. Orange Flower is a harmony of hibiscus and freesia flowers, with fresh citrusy opening of orange and mandarin. The sensual base unites vanilla, cedar and musk.

This can be used as a body spray to refresh after a workout and shower. Sillage is very low and longevity is very poor. It is soft and the Neroli is light. Just a “little something” which won’t attract attention. Nice for bedtime also. This is very quiet. Suitable for a young girl.

I just purchased this like an hour based on the reviews here, since I'm a huge fan of orange blossom and Neroli, we even use the water of it in cooking back home, which is Morocco. this just made me home sick in a good way....

Starts with a sharp sunblock smell that fades into smelling like a kids' candied body spray.
