Orange Blossom
This is a really beautiful fragrance. Right from the get go I can smell the lilac being very prominent on my skin. Reminds me of when I was a child and I'd pick lilacs and bring them home for my mother and the smell would waft through the entire house. The orange blossom is also very nicely blended in and smooth. These two notes are what I predominantly smell on my skin. I love when I wear it and catch whiffs of it all through the day. It's a scent that just makes you feel happy and uplifted. I have such a tiny bottle of it so it's used sparingly to make it last. I would love to get a big bottle one day. I have no problem with its lasting power either. At the end of the day I can still smell it. This one is a must have!

A walk from the blooming orange grove to the lilac bush by the front porch
I grew up surrounded by orange groves and still take a drive along the grove roads each season they are in bloom.There is nothing as wonderful as the smell of an Orange Grove in bloom. It is magical and if you've never experienced it you really need to.

The opening of this brought tears to my eyes. It was perfect. I could almost believe I was running through a grove in bloom. The balance of floral and green notes was spot on. Perfectly delightful.

After a bit it warms up and the lilac base steps forward and blends nicely with the grove.

It's not the longest lived perfume but it's heaven while it's there. I love it.

Edit: The last few times I've worn this perfume the "orange grove" has faded away after about an hour and it becomes a rather linear Lilac perfume. It's still lovely but Lilac is definitely the soloist after the Orange grove completes it's bright introduction and exits the stage. A good one to try if looking for a basic Lilac.

Very pretty
I first sampled this a year ago. I was pleasantly surprised but not "wowed". It seemed a bit simplistic to me so I kept looking in vain for a better orange blossom scent.

Today I finally bought a bottle. It is VERY pretty. I find it refreshingly uncomplicated and easy to wear. I'd like to think that this smell suits me. It's not angry, aggressive or offensive. It's gentle, elegant and honest. These are attributes that I value. I want to be approachable. I want to be kind. I want to smell like orange blossoms.

When I don't know what to wear- I will reach for this. I'm not one who feels comfortable leaving a trial of scent in my wake. Orange Blossom lasts a long time on my skin but doesn't project far. I don't know why I waited so long for a full bottle.

Pure and radiant
This fragrance conveys to me the happiness and lightness of being in an orchard, on a blue and sunny day, on a spring morning.

The orange and tangerine are realistic, exaggeratedly juicy and discreetly spicy (they are delicious)! They reproduce the natural smell, looking like we kneaded and rubbed it with our own hands.

There is a silky note, which is very evident and brings a certain femininity, possibly it is the water lily. I have the impression of feeling a light tuberose (not listed).

The evolution of the fragrance was slow and smooth, so that the drydown still has similarities with the starting notes. It keeps exhaling, rising to the nostrils, close to me, gracefully.

I'm very familiar with Jo Malone's natural fragrances and this is a one-way street. Its addicting. Once you like this kind of olfactory signature, pure and realistic, you start to find most other fragrances too synthetic, forced and desperate to get attention.

Thank you...
I had looked at Orange Blossom, and read many good reviews, but never purchased because I had 20+ orange blossom and neroli fragrances, and thought that I didn't need another. I was wrong. JM's Orange Blossom is a wonderful addition to my collection. It was Briarthorn who suggested trying it, and when she mentioned the gorgeous lilac drydown I knew I had to try it. I ordered four spray samples, and before the first one was gone I knew I'd be getting a FB. As others have said, it's all about the orange tree at first, but then turns to that amazing lilac finish. Since I love lilacs as well as orange blossoms, this suits me perfectly. So, a big thank you goes to Briarthorn for suggesting it - and her timing was perfect. It was right before my birthday, and I got my husband to pay for my FB - double plus!

Both Orange Blossom and Peony Blush smelled wonderful but vanished from my skin after 10 minutes. JM officials offered no hope for extending.

Loved the light citrus, honeysuckle notes immediately, however it has no staying power. I know this is common in perfumes with citrus note.

This gorgeous scent never fails to make my day. Orange blossom and lilac prevail and when I close my eyes, it's always a spring morning.

Very fresh, with orange notes of clementine. Great combination of neroli and orange blossom. Very light, just like a cologne should be.
