Miel d´Oranger does what it says in the bottle: just honey.

It is really very simple. The opening is quite lovely, dewy orange blossom , orange and honey...it smells fresh, not too sweet or cloying. It is a very flowery honey note, sadly lacking of intensity or projection, like dilluted honey. The drydown is honey and vanilla, and maybe some nutmeg if you look for it. Thanks god the vanilla is hardly noticeable, because it normally ruins honey for me.

It smells natural, but is so soft and unidimensional that i mostly use it as a body splash. Indeed, it is a great base for the enchanting Fleurs de Citronnier by Serge Lutens, since they seem to share both notes and spirit.

I paticularly enjoyed the bath line of Miel d´Oranger: the texture was thick like real honey and deeply scented. Yves Rocher does just so-so fragances, but the shower gels are remarkable: wonderful scents, last forever in the skin and very affordable (like the last Ylang-ylang shower i bought was 1´50 €)

Miel D`oranger is a delicious scent from the house of Yves Rocher.
One cannot really call it a perfume. Rather, it is pure nature. If I were to be blindfolded and given a floral honey on one side and this scent on the other to sniff, I could hardly tell the difference. It smells that authentic.
Like a honey bun. The children around me really like this scent and always want to try it.
For adults, this scent is an alternative when one doesn’t feel like wearing a perfume, but just wants to smell nice.
For this purpose, it is perfectly made. But nothing more.
One last funny note: Do not wear it in areas where bears are rumored to roam. Otherwise, you might just be seen as a treat by these little creatures and get nibbled on.

This is not a perfume, but rather Demeter's concept wrapped up in "Yves Rocher".

This could be honey on a little bread! It smells very natural and - yes: delicious! Unfortunately, this cannot be said of all the scents in this range - I usually find these fragrance offensives "Plaisirs Nature" rather disgusting.

For me, the scent is an alternative to my 2 other fragrances that I wear on days when I just can't stand "PARFUM" but still want to smell good.

Or also for 'layering' with some fragrances...
I hardly believe that this scent can be taken seriously as a "perfume". It's nice, to say the least. And perhaps even an alternative to L'Occitane's Miel & Citron variants.

Very similar to "Eau de Miel" by L'Occitane! Probably cheaper but hardly easier to find. Bright honey scent for late summer.

Honey scents are often sticky and musty. This one, however, smells fresh, genuine, and really delicious, thanks to the rounding fruity notes. It’s even suitable for evenings!
