d'Orsay · 1973

Citrus · Floral · Green

d'Orsay Nomade is a men's fragrance that opens citrusy and green, then settles into a floral, woody and sweet body; it has been discontinued. Longevity and sillage are both rated good, though the number of votes is small, so those ratings are only a rough guide. Most voters pick autumn, winter and spring, while summer lags behind. Leisure, night out and evening are the leading occasions, with daily and business wear close behind. Up top, petitgrain, bergamot and lemon give a fresh start, while basil, aniseed and lavender add a green, spicy edge. In the heart, geranium, vetiver, heliotrope and iris form a floral, powdery, earthy balance. At the base, labdanum, vanilla and moss leave a resinous, sweet warmth.
