Orange Blossom

This is anything but a simple straightforward orange blossom fragrance. It's actually quite unique in how changeable it is depending on the weather. On cooler days, it is all orange blossom, the spicy kind as found in Houbigant's Orange en Fleurs and Serge Luten's Fleur d'Oranger (minus the cumin note). But on warmer days, it wears as a Tiare scent, bringing to mind fragrances like Guerlain's Terracotta. What is even wilder is that when I put it on in the cool of the morning yesterday it was all orange blossom, but as the day progressed and the temps rose it transitioned to a Tiare bomb; very tropical and sultry. It's as if I switched fragrances in the middle of the day. That's both strange and wonderful. I purchased a lot of scents and body products from this house during their half-price Christmas sale, the majority to give away as gifts, and this perfume was my favorite. (Heads up, their jasmine perfume reminded me of the jasmine in Jasmin et Cigarette minus the tobacco.) I also purchased the bodywash and moisturizer that along with the perfume was less than 1/2 the price (under $40) of a good designer fragrance on the grey market. Considering the quality of this edt, which behaves like a strong edp, that is an amazing value. I recommend anyone who likes the 3 fragrances I mentioned above to give this a shot. I don't think you'll be disappointed in either the scent or performance of this peculiar little gem. I think it is fantastic.

I have both a rollerball of Fleur d'Oranger Absolue/Orange Blossom Absolute and the matching hand cream, and this fragrance is so lovely! This easily makes the list of my top 10 favorite perfumes of all time. This is how it unfolds on my skin: The opening is a heady, elegant white floral blended with the sweetness of oranges and something fresh and green. As it dries down it melts into soft, creamy, woody vanilla that still maintains a white floral edge with hints of orange. Absolutely gorgeous! I also love that it's a more intimate fragrance. You can smell it enough to feel classy and put together, but it's not strong enough to gas out every one around you. In my opinion, this is appropriate for all seasons and any time of day or night.

Wow this is really pretty. Most people think ah so what it's orange blossom fragrance for summer and I have to admit that I have thought the same thing. But this orange blossom is sooo sultry and sexy! It must be the addition of the tiare and vanilla that is giving me hot summer date night vibes. This is just as good as the much more expensive Aerin Lauder Amberette Musk an orange blossom fragrance I considered buying. Glad I didn't. Now I can buy this instead! And save a ton of money. If you want a sultry slightly candied orange blossom this is an excellent way to go! Thanks Ana for sending me this beauty! Edit: my husband loves Aerin Amberette noir. He says this isn't as sweet. Men like very sweet fragrances lol.

it smells absolutely amazing. im not a huge perfume girl. i mostly get mine from 5 below (which has amazing dupes for those who are less fortunate), and im not very picky at all. but i have been searching for an orange blossom scent for so long. everything i found smelled of actual oranges. this is the only one that smells of orange blossom truly. its sweet and smells like childhood summers by the beach. inexpensive, and smells natural and fresh. it doesnt last super long, but luckily its small so i can reapply it halfway through the day.

I tried this on my last day in Paris, not thinking much of it, and then in a couple of hours it became the perfect orange blossom, so I rushed out to buy it. Somehow the French seem to know how to create orange blossom scents really well. It's inexpensive, and light. Smells more expensive and well made than most pricey scents and perfect for summer. I layer it with Hawaiian Tropic oil. I think the key is to get the lotion and shower gel to add to the layering effect since it is so light.
