Getting acquainted with citrus scents
I thought I might try and get familiar with this olfactory group, or just scents with prominent citrus notes. A friend dropped by yesterday, noticed a Mandarine-Basilic sample and sprayed it on. She didn't like it any more than I do, but it got me trying on more citrus scents and wearing Versense for the rest of the day.
I swiped the following citrus fragrance recommendations/favourites from a forum I frequent.
- D&G: Light Blue, LB Dreaming in Portofino
- The Different Company: (Divine) Bergamote
- Guerlain: Impériale, du Coq, Orange Magnifica
- Annick Goutal: Les Nuits d’Hadrien, Ninfeo Mio
- Lorenzo Villoresi: Dilmun
- Fragonard: Fleur d’Orange
- Diptyque: Oyedo
- Comme des Garçons: Soda
- Thierry Mugler: Cologne
- YSL: M7 Fresh
- Emanuel Ungaro: II
- Korres: Heliotrope Ylang-Ylang Citron
- Creed: Love in White
- Montale: Soleil de Capri
- Atelier Cologne: Orange Sanguine
In addition I have some citrus-containing scents in my closet:
- Hermès: Eau des Merveilles
- Guerlain: Pamplelune, Lemon-Fresca, Mandarine-Basilic
- Versace: Versense
- Acqua di Parma: Blu Mediterraneo Arancia di Capri
So here are some scents I intend to try on and review systematically over the following weeks, starting with what I already own. Anything more I should try? Avoid?
