I’m looking for a new neroli fragrance for my collection. Right now I have Parco Palladiano VIII from Bottega, and it’s a great summer fresh fragrance. I’m looking for those though that have a bit more of a woody base / dry down and oomph. Any suggestions on what to try next beyond TF Neroli Portofino, that are unisex or masculine leaning?
Neroli Fragrances
Hi DrHsgual,
here's a few suggestions:
Acqua di Parma - this brand hits the sweet spot between designer and exclusive. pretty much their whole range is built around the cologne/neroli theme
001 Fleur d'Oranger Petit Grain Bergamote - 'affordable niche', pretty safe take on neroli+lavender in EDT concentration
Le Petit Grain - this is neroli in EDP concentration. straightforward masculine neroli+petitgrain on a long lasting woody base
"Néroli Intense | Parfums de Nicolaï" - EDP, top quality neroli with honey, unisex
Fleurs d'oranger - EDP, opens with white florals that turn into a spicy neroli, unisex
Neroli Animalis - EDP, try at your own risk, this is a brutal animalic take on neroli
I love these:
Mugler Cologne or its update, Mugler Cologne - Come Together

Brutal in what degree? Some of the ingredients overlap with others in my collection.

It's the musk that makes this one different. Most neroli fragrances have a fresh, clean type of musk that makes you have a 'freshly showered' sensation. This one contains a musk that goes exactly the opposite direction and gives a nasty funky experience. Perhaps you have heard of Kouros Eau de Toilette and how it is called 'animalic' sometimes. Well, Neroli Animalis is 10 times Kouros in that sense. Makes a good conversation starter, but obviously not suitable for daily wear.
Floris neroli voyage is great
I’m sampling this now! It’s very floral, in a way that is different from a few I am considering. Wow!
One of my favorites.
Eau des Sens from Diptyque is wonderful.
I would skip the TF and go for Al Haramain - Portfolio Neroli Canvas

I did as large sample haul, and this is what I will end up purchasing first. The price/longevity combo cant be beat.
My suggestion is Perdizione Nobile 1942, comes across as very sweet but the bitterness of neroli somehow manages to get through
