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.
