Eau de Rochas Citron Soleil

I looove this perfume so much! It is such an easy reach for me when I want something that smells nice but isn't too complicated. I've worn it all year round, but it can be especially nice during summer. To me, it smells like the word "clean". It is really refreshing, definitely smells like lemon and laundry detergent. My mother always compliments me when I wear it! (For reference, she only likes floral perfumes.) The only other kind of "feedback" I've ever got for it, aside from my mother's, is from two students at college who walked into the classroom where I was and somehow smelled my perfume in the air, and one of them said, and I quote: "Someone did laundry." (I was mildly embarrassed but hey, at least laundry smells nice!) Just like Rochas "Orange Horizon", the staying power on clothes is insane, I can still smell it on some of my freshly washed tops (and I use a scented detergent!)

It is a marine and sunny summer eau. It opens fresh and cheerful, then appears the neroli and a salty note that last long enough, but it is more like a skin scent than a perfume. It reminds me of the scent of the skin coated with sunscreen that dries under the sun after a long bath in the Mediterranean sea. It evokes my best summers and an atmosphere of marine well-being. It was love at the first spray.

Simple, lemon smell, but at the same time so lovely and fresh. I sprayed this on a hot day and i felt like i could breathe again! Simple, clean and fresh! Nothing more to ask for, on a hot summer day!

There’s not much to say - it’s a lemon fragrance, pure and simple. A fresh, radiant lemon, bright and cheerful, with nothing fussy or overcomplicated. It may not be extraordinary, but it’s perfect for a sunny holiday in the South. Effortless, refreshing, and affordable - just what you need for a carefree, easygoing vibe.

accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do; a delightful lemon surprise. unquestionably Lemon in lieu of a vague citrus. zest is very potent here, it smells fresh and almost soapy, a very very clean summer scent. absolutely refreshing and an instant classic. will be recommending to people beyond a doubt.
