What does Absolu d'Oranger smell like?

Most voters place it in spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it makes itself known without filling the room. It reads a little more feminine than masculine, though plenty of voters call it masculine too.

It opens with mandarin orange, bergamot and lemon in a bright citrus layer, with orange leaf and blackcurrant bud adding a green edge. Iris and orange blossom bring a soft floral heart, and the dry-down settles on vetiver, cedarwood and oakmoss. The overall impression is fresh, lightly sweet and a little spicy. Atelier Rebul 1895 and Burberry The Beat (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
