Tuscan Blood Orange

Sorry, I'm not trying to sound like a broken record, but this is not a one note wonder either... As described from Pacifica, "juicy and spicy Blood Orange is offset with subtle Strawberry and Raspberry notes and grounded in fleshy Mandarin and Italian Sweet Orange." My personal opinion on this fragrance, it's really bright, fruity, and I enjoy it. I cannot claim that I am able to smell each type of orange Pacifica listed, but I can tell you what I did smell. True, when you first spray this on (my skin anyway) you smell only the spicy blood orange. In less than five minutes it does start to let the beautiful berry notes out to mingle too. I first smelled strawberries mixing with the blood orange, but then I did notice the raspberry note come into the mix. It seems like as the spicy part of the blood orange dies down, or maybe it's a totally different type of orange taking it's place, then the raspberry has room to come out and play. It's a very realistic scent of both strawberry and raspberry; it doesn't smell like someone sweetened them up with a cup of sugar or anything else for that matter. I'm really impresses with how spot on this fragrance is when it comes to the fruity notes actually smelly like you literally just cut into one at your kitchen counter! So, yes, I really do enjoy this fragrance. That being said, I would only give it 4 out of 5 stars. The reason being the short staying power it had on my skin. I can maybe get 3 or 4 hours out of it on a good day. I also have to say, Pacifica's fragrances are very reasonably priced, so if I have to refresh it throughout the day it's not really a big deal. I would recommend this to anyone who loves fruity fragrances without any floral notes, enjoy!

Love love this scent! A great citrusy sweetness! It doesn't last long though and the silage is weak, but I don't mind spraying it numerous times a day especially with the affordable price. If you are/were looking for a good, solid orange scent, I feel this one works AMAZINGLY. It's such a fun, mood-lifting smell. If you are/were considering Orange Sanguine or Clementine California from Atelier Cologne like I was, this one is much sweeter. Orange Sanguine and Clementine California I'd say is much more tarte or bitter, and I feel like they might be considered more of a purer or authentic orange scent. I thought that's what I wanted, but when I tested the Atelier Cologne perfumes in-store, I found myself surprisingly more attracted to Tuscan Blood Orange. With that, Tuscan Blood Orange leans much more feminine and the Atelier Cologne perfumes lean more unisex/masculine.

Not a terribly sophisticated perfume--it has the dessert-y sweetness of an orange creamsicle milkshake. As a gourmand in the guise of a citrus perfume, it has a slight kiss of vanilla and candied orange rind on the dry down after the first notes of a slightly sour, somewhat realistic and very juicy orange. Don't pick this one for complexity, as the notes don't transform more than that. It's my comfort smell due to its its versatility and lack of sexual overtones/drama (especially crucial in situations that warrant prettiness but not "hitting on you" vibes, like seeing coworkers outside of work). Not over the top feminine either, and I could see other genders less insecure about tradition wearing this, though it definitely leans feminine. Namely, the orange is not terribly floral but the sweetness isn't masculine.

(I am writing this review based solely off the hair & body mist)! I got this for my birthday last year and I love it! I actually wouldn't call the mist true to a blood orange scent— there is a subtle sweet orange smell but it doesn't bring blood orange directly to mind. Instead, it smells JUST like Fruity Pebbles? I don't even mean that in a bad way, it's one of my favorite scents to use, especially after hopping out of the shower or just to spray in my hair before class, but it smells like a citrusy Fruity Pebbles scent! Just like the French Lilac mist, also by Pacifica, the mist is so subtley sweet and I could not imagine it overpowering anyone at all— Pacifica makes their hair & body mists alcohol free so there is no unpleasant sharpness to punctuate this lovely scent.

This smells like someone is eating an orange in the same room as you, and they peeled it with their hands so the oils from the rind get crushed and released. There is no complexity or maturity to this, and it really doesn't smell like perfume- it smells like orange oil. I imagine this would be nice after a long day at the beach, when you take a shower and put on big comfy clothes and some aloe vera on your skin. For the first 10 minutes, this has insane projection. Everyone in the room will smell you. And then within an hour, the scent is almost entirely gone, unless you sniff your skin. My boyfriend is crazy about this, but he loves citrus. Not my fave, but I like using it while I study to give me a little energy.

A soft, almost-linear orange and sugar scent. I don't really get the raspberry and strawberry, just true, realistic orange that gets sweeter as it dries down. It lasts maybe a couple of hours and the sillage is quite intimate, but I'm often surrounded by people who are easily put off by fragrances, so I actually appreciate its politeness, especially at work. When it gets on my clothes and I catch traces of it the next day, there's something sweet and almost floral to it. It doesn't change much as it dries down, but I enjoy every stage of its evolution. Not a challenging perfume, just a very pleasant one that I reach for often. (Given the longevity, sometimes VERY often. But it doesn't cost much.)

I’ve wanted to buy this for a long time, I’ve never smelled it but based on the notes I thought I would love it and I was right! I got it today, sadly even with a 22% mark down it was still forty dollars for a 30mls bottle which I find kind of excessive but will still pay it lol if you like orange scented perfumes you’ll love this. This is 100% blood orange through and through. So much so that when it first hits your nose it can be a bit much but within a few minutes it settles beautifully into a very sweet fruity orange scent. Comparable to Ellis Brooklyn West, Skylar Capri Summer and many other orange scented perfumes. If citrus scents , especially orange is your jam....pick this up!

This one has been my all time favorite for over a decade now. The blood orange scent is just beautiful, and I don’t mind that it fades away after an hour or so because it just means I get to reapply and experience it all over again! In the regular perfume, I don’t really get a whiff of the berry notes, but in the TBO hair and body spray, the berry is much stronger to the point where it smells like fruit loops, which I don’t really mind, but it isn’t as good as that strong orange. Very good for normal daily wear, especially during the summer time. I never leave home without the rollerball in my purse! The price is pretty good for what you get.

I've wanted to try this forever but would always shy away because everyone always says the longevity sucks. They were right. But it does smell AMAZING! Like the most delicious orange candy you could ever smell. Perfect amount of sweet, tangy and juicy. It reminds me of the various dupes of Capri Blue Volcano I've had and loved. I've yet to buy the actual Capri one because majority of reviews say it doesn't last either. I will most likely buy the Pacifica one again as long as it's still under $20.

Smells EXACTLY like a juicy tangerine or mandarin orange, with the sweetness. Literally mouth-watering, and makes me crave oranges when I wear it. This is a perfect fragrance for spring and summer. I think it would be lovely paired with a nice vanilla. Unfortunately, on my skin, this lovely scent is short lived and the sillage, almost non-existant. This is the unfortunate downfall of this perfume. But I keep a roller-ball because I crave the scent at times.;)

I bought this in its solid form a million years ago and loved it, as one of the first perfumes I bought for myself. I bought the roll-on and the spray later on, and I still love it. I don't know how I never picked up on the strawberry, but I totally smell it now, and it adds a very sweet, juicy quality. This one is really pleasant to wear in the summer, on a hot day. It's not complicated and artistic, it's just a really fun, sweet, citrusy perfume.

Simplistic is a good thing in this case. The fruitiness has got that sour, sharp edge that makes your mouth water a little bit and the sides of your mouth tighten up. If I didn't know it was supposed to be blood orange, which I have eaten maybe twice in my life, I'd think it was grapefruit and nectarine. Not getting any strawberry or raspberry but I'm getting a warm serotinal note, like a ripe golden apple, that balances the tanginess.

Pure, sweet orange citrus. That’s all. And that’s all there needs to be for this fragrance. It’s fruity bliss: energetic, bubbly and sunny. Very enjoyable for the entirety of it’s wear. A favorite of mine. Really the only other perfume I like from the Pacifica brand is the Persian Rose, which particularly well represents the persian rose aroma. Every other perfume I’ve tried from them is a miss in my opinion.

I blind bought this spray perfume on sale at Ulta for $11 and I am not disappointed! This opens with a hint of strawberry but then it smells like the flesh of the fleshiest, sweetest, juciest blood orange and grapefruit which slowly morphs into an Orange Starburst and then into an Orange Popsicle. This perfume is delicious! Perfect for hot days at the beach, sipping sangrias and watching the world go by.

Pacifica can be hit or miss but this is a definite HIT. It's hard to find an orange scent that doesn't smell like Fast Orange. Is it 1 note? Yep. Does it turn into a skin scent after 3 hours? Yep. STILL WORTH IT. I like using this as an after shower scent and it works great for layering. Spray it on your clothing if you want some longevity. 9/10

This was the one that made me a Pacifica fan. I was told it's a dupe for Lush's Karma, which was out of my price range at the time. And it's similar, but not quite a dupe. I loved the blood orange note, and the opening is strong, but it faded pretty quickly on me, and it of course lacks complexity.

hello i just got this today and i like it very much got this at target stores love the fact it does not have alot of junk in it to smell good this is done in small batches with the use of essential oils i think if your on the fence about this one go to target store and try some for yourself

Imagine a blood orange hard candy and that is this perfume. It’s very youthful, linear, poor longevity but it’s fun and bright and good for lifting a mood. I really like it, I wish it lasted a bit longer, but for the price respraying isn’t a huge issue.

OMG Yumminess! Love it! Fresh and fruity sweet. Smells EXACTLY like the old school Body Shop fruit shaped soap bars from the 90s and transports me straight back to those pre teen days when TBS products were all the rage :) IMO the best Pacifica yet!

Wildly edible - smells the same way San Pellegrino Aranciata Rosso tastes. Like most of the other Pacifica perfumes, not complicated, but I want to eat my wrists whenever I'm wearing it, so does it matter? Pairs perfectly with a sundress.
