What does Orangers en Fleurs (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Orange blossom, Egyptian jasmine absolute and rose absolute open the scent, with citrus and green accords keeping it bright. In the heart, nutmeg, Comorian ylang-ylang, petitgrain water absolute and tuberose sweeten the floral core and add a touch of spice. Cedarwood and musk in the base settle it onto a woody, powdery ground.

Most voters recommend it for spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions named most often. Both longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters see it as feminine. Acqua di Parma Gelsomino Nobile and Serge Lutens Fleurs de citronnier have a close profile.
