Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Van Cleef & Arpels Néroli Amara Le Parfum is a unisex scent that pairs bright citrus with the sweet, creamy softness of orange blossom. Its longevity and sillage are rated good by those who voted, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is not definitive. It reads comfortably on both men and women. It opens with bergamot, Italian lemon and mandarin orange, giving a fresh, fruity brightness. Cypress and pink pepper in the heart add a light spicy, green dryness. In the base, orange blossom absolute and cashmeran settle the floral sweetness onto a creamy footing. Van Cleef & Arpels Néroli Amara and Fragonard Belle d'Arles have a close profile.
