What does Bois d'Orange smell like?

The opening of mandarin orange, basil and vervain feels bright and green. In the heart, neroli and orange blossom add a soft floral note, while Brazilian rosewood, amber and cedarwood give the base a woody footing. Fruity and spicy touches stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it works as a light scent that stays close. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. It leans a little more feminine, though a fair share of voters call it masculine. Creed Neroli Sauvage and Al Haramain Neroli Canvas have a close profile.
