Green candle making in the Lindenallee
I bought the fragrance blind because I was so taken with the scents. I was not disappointed. I'm a huge fan of lime blossom anyway, I really like fragrances like 1A-33 (2012) or № 10 Linde Berlin.
What I particularly like about the lime blossom fragrances is their naturalness. This one from Orsay in particular delivers exactly what its fragrance notes promise and does so in an extremely natural way. It's as if you've rubbed some warm beeswax over your skin, as well as a fresh green lemon leaf (doesn't give you/me any toilet fragrance vibes!!) and are walking through an avenue of lime trees, with a little breeze of hay from the fields. When the sun shines through the leaves and tickles your nose, the moment is absolute springtime bliss.
After 10 minutes, the woody undertone comes to the fore and, together with the beeswax, gives the whole thing a pleasant warmth. For my nose, this is a welcome change from the warm, vanilla fragrances I usually like. I would say that the fragrance is not sweet per se, nor is the beeswax, it is rather warm, like warm, fresh spring air, but the lime blossom itself gives the fragrance a subtle honey note.
The fragrance does not shine with a complex development, it remains more or less linear, but in my opinion it does not need complexity either. For me, it is one of those "in this moment" fragrances that take you on a short journey, to a place that is characterized by an image, a feeling, to remember. For me, this is the feeling of security in the emerging green, fresh, blooming nature in the warm spring air.
