Fresh and Pure
Fleur d'Oranger initially presents itself as a sweet promise, ready to offer its sugary softness and alluring scent. But soon, this flower, which seemed voluptuous at first, becomes fresher and cleaner, almost like baby products.

For fans of freshness, lightness, and anything that evokes purity, this fragrance could be a true ray of sunshine. However, for those seeking the richness of an orange blossom that’s honeyed or wrapped in a gourmand softness, Fleur d'Oranger might feel a bit too "innocent," lacking the warm roundness one might expect from such an enchanting flower.

Rough opening, lovely dry-down
The opening is a bit rough for me: bitter, earthy neroli, mixed with some honey (on my skin it unfortunately the honey used here translates to "almost-cat-pee"), and a bit of musk that is very similar to coumarin or hay.

In dry down it softly bloomed into a bolder, more lifelike orange blossom solinote: less bitter and more sweet - somewhat of a "nectar"-like floral mixed in, like honeysuckle.

In my quest to find a photorealistic orange blossom, this one isn't 100% accurate... but it's quite close.

(Closest one I've found so far: Lemon & Orange Blossom No. 1807 )

Fleur d'Oranger, Fragonard
I know this from the groves
speckled orange with fruit,
petal spotted white,
with leaves so green
they grip your soul.

I know this from a sunset,
From a time before you,
If there really ever was
a time before you.
I remember it so well,
But in memory,
Now shifted,
You were there
only because
I wish you had been.

Sweet and fresh
as a child’s hair
drying in the sun,
it lays languid
on my skin
and fills my heart
with sweetness
that once was lost
and now
is found
again.

Summer Sunshine
This opens with an intense orange blossom hit, which is tempered with bergamot and jasmine. The base is a honey skin scent with very little musk. Simple and lovely.

For any nose sensitive to Neroli, all you'll smell is incense. I'll be sticking to Jo Malone Orange Blossom.
