Neroli duel autumn 2020
Autumn is here, winter is coming and who still thinks of a typical summery fresh neroli scent? Maybe for 2021? Or the "Gehtimmerduft" for notorious orange blossom lovers?
There are thousands of them. But most of them not so great and not available for Lau.
More expensive offshoots have to be convincing here.
BVLGARI tried to do it and Tom Ford tried to do it long before that. YSL, Chanel, Prada and Co. are happy to sell us 200€ Neroli bottles from their exclusive series.
Do I have to?
Personally, I know and had felt 50 different and yet often very similar Nerolide fragrances. From 10 to 300€.
Who knows my reviews, knows that I always like to have close doubles compete against each other.
Today:
Néroli Oranger
From Matière Premiere
VS.
Atelier des Fleurs - Neroli
from Chloe.
Result?
Matiere Premiere is clearly weaker on the chest with Sillage as well as longevity.
Chloe can make it a good six hours in here.
Chloe appears more feminine, less green and herbaceous. Honey yellow seems to be neroli oranges. The Chloe rather orange with pink. It seems more powdery, noble and less "4711 Cologne" heavy.
Chloe is just a bit ahead of the rest, although I don't find that "old-fashioned nostalgic" feeling in the Neroli Oranger. It's more modern, but a little more chemical. Ylang Ylang I only feel homeopathic.
I think I'd take Chloe. Unfortunately, I already have a neroli favorite from V&A.
It is and remains unrivalled.
Place where the duelists were found: Hamburg Alsterhaus and the new Douglas next to it.
