Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Von Eusersdorff Classic Orange is a fresh, citrusy, lightly sweet unisex scent that suits spring and summer days, whether daily wear or the office. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, while winter gets few votes. Daily wear, leisure and business lead the occasions, with evening and night out further back. Feminine votes outweigh masculine ones, though a fair share still reads it as masculine. Blood orange and petitgrain give it a fresh, slightly green citrus feel. Osmanthus adds a floral, fruity sweetness, softened by black tea. Sandalwood, suede and musk form a woody, soft base throughout, with a faint spicy edge in the background.
