Penhaligon's - An obituary of headless vegetarian scents, fifth prank
Orange Blossom is a special fragrance. The name can probably be interpreted as two separate terms, as the orange blossom itself does not occur. Unlike the orange, along with all sorts of flowers.
From the top note onwards, a dense, waxy, soapy veil lies over the fragrance, which is never completely broken. The beginning is almost piquant - under the veil - with ethereal cardamom in the main and sparkling neroli in the secondary role. This does not last long, however, and with the transition to the heart note, which continues to accompany Neroli with a presence, a creamy bed of white flowers, here I hear above all jasmine. This is accompanied by a subdued, fruity orange note that can hold its own for an unusually long time. As the fragrance progresses, the floral notes diminish, but remain creamy. In the process, the neroli, which is actually continuous, is brought out more strongly. Here the scent is already very weak. Also here I can't find an independent basis.
As with the other fragrances in the series, I am impressed by the actually great change Orange Blossom undergoes, but it is very authentic, flowing and almost imperceptible. It combines a spicy-citric opening with the classic floral scent over the bridge of a distinguished soapiness, as if the two had always belonged together.
