The somewhat different orange scent ?
Aaron Terence Hughes was until now a brand, which did not really get attention from me, the reasons for this are many. The person behind the brand was a bit strange for me, to put it mildly, just not someone I would buy a perfume from. Added to this was the Brexit and the already not exactly cheap prices.
Beforehand, I would like to say a few words right away, for all those who are interested in the fragrance:
Blood Orange smells for me not at all like a hand soap, fragrance oil, tea light or other comparisons. Sure there are some products which use orange oil. But this is more due to the fact that orange is a good smell eater and freshener.
The similarity to Terre d' Hermès I also do not see at all.
But now I would like to come back to the fragrance itself. Blood Orange really starts with a blood orange. The difference here is mainly to recognize to a normal orange, that this orange note is much more tart and not really sweet. Tangerine and mandarin are more in the background here and round out the blood orange. Jasmine I can easily perceive from the 2nd hour, this gives the fragrance a slight creamy note. Towards the end, a woody and slightly sweet base with amber comes to the fore. The blood orange keeps safe but very well perceptible over the entire course.
The durability is with circa 7 hours for a fresh fragrance absolutely within reason. The projection is 3-4 hours also in the good range.
The price is set too high for me, however. It would be really fair Blood Orange to reduce to the same Pries as Neon or similar.
The fragrance is also a great alternative for Mandarino di Amalfi, Orange Sanguine and Afternoon Swim fans.
