Heritage Collection: Orange Blossom

I've never smelled an orange blossom so I don't know if this smells like one. But I do know this smells lovely. Although musk and orange blossom are the only notes listed I smell lavender and some pungent herb -- sage? rosemary? -- in the opening. This quickly gives way to a soft, creamy sweetness. It rides like silk on the skin. The drydown is a bit citrus, a bit soapy. This is a lightly sweet,very clean and fresh scent. It would be perfect for summer evenings. Orange blossoms are associated with weddings and this would indeed be a perfect wedding fragrance. A must have.

I like this. Light and airy, but with a velvety-cottony feeling added by the musk. Good sillage, good lasting power too. I think maybe Yardley's colognes are sometimes underrated. Sometimes you just need a soft, uncomplicated, innocent caress. Makes me smile.

Not a good representation of Orange Blossom. Too soapy, too powdery of a scent. Spring/Summer appropriate. Reminds me of a discontinued Avon Naturals "Orange Blossom" body spray.

This perfume is mildly fresh and it's scent remind me of my mother who frequently used this perfume. Very classic and vintage scent

I agree with other reviewers who said this is a poor representation of what orange blossoms are supposed to smell like. Actually, that is an understatement. I live in Florida near an orange grove. I know what orange blossoms smell like. This isn't it. This is a powdery, floral musk, which sadly, smells nothing like its name. I love the smell of orange blossoms and wanted to have access to the scent year round. I bought this blind, thinking it was obvious. I was sorely disappointed. If powdery florals are your thing, you will probably like this scent. If you're looking for true orange blossom fragrance, I would definitely recommend Pacifica Nerola Orange Blossom, Geurlain Aqua Allegoria Neroli, or Jo Malone Orange Blossom.

Weirdly this smells mainly of herby lavender. I'm not sure I can detect orange blossom in there at all. I say weird because the Yardely range do usually give a good representation of whatever flower they are marketted at. This one is a disappointment.

Not sure why this has so many negative reviews as it's a beautiful, if simple fragrance. It does smell a little sharp and lavender like at first but soon dries down to a sweet orange smell with a musky, clean base. It smells like orange blossom on a summer's day to me, quite lovely.

I have a Yardley Refreshing Body Spray in Orange Blossom and it too smells only of musk and lavender. Orange blossom is my favorite scent and I huff the blossoms on my tree. If you love lavender - I don't - then this is for you.

Reminds me of a window box with lavender and herbs growing abundantly. This lasts for an hour or so before developing into a whisper of a floral musk which is pretty but just as I'm starting to love it, it's gone.

I had this one but got rid of it. It's a light floral scent, but I prefer more expressive Andalucia by Isabel Derroisne. But I had the old version of Orange blossom, may be the new one is better

To me, it smells like musk and lavender. I can't really smell the orange blossom... I like it anyways, but it wasn't what I expected!
