Beautiful summery orange blossom
I had been eyeing this fragrance for a long time and this year it made it into my collection. In terms of price, you can get this fragrance from the niche Collection Extraordinaire range at acceptable prices, otherwise this fragrance costs 150€ per 75ml, which is not completely excessive for this quality. However, if you wait for the right offer, it is available for less than €100. Overall, this range from Van Cleef & Arpels is absolutely beautiful and you get many different styles with around 40 fragrances. It's worth having a browse.
As an absolute fan of neroli and orange blossom, I naturally had to test/buy this one, which is also by Quentin Bisch. I like his creations and most of them suit my taste. For me, neroli is one of the most summery notes of all. There are hardly any notes that trigger a greater summer vibe in me. Of course, not all of them are like the well-known 4711, but much more modern and floral.
As with all fragrances in this range, the packaging is elegant and pretty, but not too voluminous. Matching this great bottle you get a noble box which has a similar look. The bottle is of course also visually impressive.
In terms of scent, this fragrance simply smells 100% like summer and is best suited to sunshine. It captures the vibes of summer and sunshine perfectly. Citrus, neroli, fresh orange blossom, clean and carefree, just as it should be in summer. The perfect mix of fresh citrus, summery floral notes and simply no-brainer freshness with a subtle spiciness.
The fragrance starts with a lot of orange blossom. A very gentle note that is also very clean. This orange blossom goes perfectly with a neat look, like a bright white shirt. It is simply wonderful in warm to hot temperatures, including bright sunshine. This neroli or orange blossom note is supported by a fresh, fruity citrus that is simply good for you and puts you in a good mood. Simply freshness and cleanliness paired with lots of summer vibes. There is also a very subtle spiciness that hovers in the background. After the top note of around 2 hours, the fragrance calms down and becomes a little closer to the skin, but performs really well for a freshie. Towards the end, the fragrance turns from a summer scent to a "softener", which I find really pleasant. It definitely goes well together. However, I think the top note is the most beautiful thing about this fragrance.
As I said, the performance is not bad for a freshie: 5-6 hours of longevity, really good sillage for the first 2-3 hours. As this is made more for the hours of sunshine, you can choose another fragrance for the evening.
To sum up: I love these modern orange blossom and neroli fragrances for summer. This scent simply reminds me of high summer and heat and is the perfect accompaniment. Plus this great citrus. Another tip on my part would be Villa Néroli, which goes in a similar direction. All in all, a wonderful composition by Quentin Bisch.

Doesn't quite live up to the name
My 3rd Roja after the Elysium Cologne and the Enigma Cologne. This time a little more expensive, but still one of the "cheaper" Roja's. That's probably why it's one of the better-known and the wonderful name also contributes to this....
