O de L'Orangerie

What a radiantly beautiful, fresh, clean, dewy-green, orange blossom floral! This lovely flanker opens with a splash of dewdrop-fresh citric greens embraced by a warmly lush heart of neroli, clean jasmine, and headily smooth creamy orange blossoms. The tenderly soft base of clean, light woods and benzoin envelops everything in a tenderly soft cocoon of warm elegance and subtle sweetness. This is a delicately intoxicating haze of clean, white seduction. Feminine in extremis. I am enchanted.

Alien Eau Fraiche

Upon first spray, I was immediately reminded of Alien from Thierry Mugler. Maybe not the Eau de Parfum, but a cleaner version. Perhaps the Alien Eau de Toilette or Alien Aqua Chic? I desire to call it, "L'eau de Alien". I believe this is due to the way in which the jasmine is used or breed of jasmine. O de L`Orangerie craftfully uses more citrus and benzoin opposed to amber. This is a very fresh, well balanced floral where all of the notes equally share the bottle.

Zesty Orange Blossom

If you love orange blossom as much as I do, this O de Lancome flanker is worth checking out.

I turn to wearing fresh orange blossom scents at the start of every Spring. It's my way of avoiding fruity or citrusy scents, and sticking with florals. O de L'Orangerie is so light and fresh on the skin, that it's perfect for those hot Spring and Summer days.

It's also a tad sweet, in a way that compliments the rest of the composition. The scent in its entirety strikes me as being rather cool and crisp. The mint-green coloured bottle really does suit the scent, as it's quite fresh yet feminine.

It may never live up to its classic and unique predecessor, O de Lancome, but this flanker does have the ability to stand on its own two feet. Its zesty approach to orange blossom intrigues me, and is also what makes it so universally pleasing.

It's unfortunate that O de L'Orangerie is a limited edition. The only stores that still stock it tend to be duty free, and I fear that after this year, it will become increasingly harder to find. O de Lancome, O de L'Orangerie and the accompanying flankers are some of the very best from Lancome.

Although the projection is a little weak, the lasting strength is surprisingly good. I tested it before heading off to work and still caught wafts of it after I finished my shift. I recommend.

O de L’orangerie - not as sour as the "old one"

I came across this fragrance yesterday while searching for another scent from which I wanted to fill a sample. There isn’t much more to say about this fragrance; some say it’s boring, others say it’s beautifully refreshing, both are true.

When summer in the Rhineland is hot and sunny, when heels get stuck in the tar on the street, when the air shimmers before your eyes, and the thunderstorm and rain drive the humidity even higher, then it’s time for Ô de l'Orangerie.

With this fragrance, I primarily perceive fresh, juicy orange, not sweet, not too sour. The jasmine hides from me, the scent remains beautifully orangey-citrusy, is a bit bitter and greenish-herbaceous, and after a while becomes softer and slightly woody. An ideal, rather linear fragrance for hot days, which, alongside its freshness, also conveys a wonderful impression of cleanliness. The big sister, Ô de Lancôme, was also in my collection years ago, but today I prefer the little sister, as she is not quite as citrusy-sour as the older sister. Longevity and sillage are quite weak, but when used with the body lotion, both are acceptable. Additionally, the price is quite reasonable, so you can confidently reapply. The ribbed glass bottle is aesthetically pleasing and, despite its size, fits well in the hand. Although O de L’orangerie is classified for women, I consider it quite suitable for the stronger sex.

Bitter-fresh on the Table

At first, I couldn't really warm up to the scent (*waving over to Lilau*). I was probably just disappointed that, as a little gourmand fan, I wasn't catered to as hoped.

What I imagined was: a big, juicy Capri-Sonne Orange would be presented to me. Or Sunkist Orange. Delicious, fruity, sweet-juicy, ready to bite into (or to enjoy sipping). Far from it! Here, a bitter, herbal, alcoholic adult beverage is opened. The orange is not pleasing, but rather very brittle. By the way, I can clearly smell it throughout; the floral notes never really dominate, despite the finely radiant jasmine at the heart. I also find the scent rather dry.

As it develops, the orange becomes more agreeable. Initially bitter enough to make you cough, it gradually loses its harshness and becomes softer. But never, really never, is it sweet. The base is delicate and pleasant, cool and soft, the bitterness has evaporated.

The longevity is surprisingly good for this type of summer fragrance. Yes, it outperforms its garden competitors from Hermès in my cabinet by a long shot in this regard. Those who don't find aquatic scents refreshing in summer (like me), and who find citrus scents too quickly exhausting (like I do), should definitely give the Orange-Ô a chance.
