Neroli

I was worried this would go sharp and soapy on my skin, but it stays soft and green the whole way through. The floral heart is delicate without being faint, and it lasts a solid six hours on me before fading into something quietly warm.

The neroli blossom here smells genuinely fresh, not soapy or sharp like others I've tried. It's delicate enough for daytime but lingers longer than I expected, and I keep catching it on my wrist hours later.

I've been wearing neroli-forward scents for years, and this one actually smells like real blossoms rather than the sharp soapy version I keep running into. It stays soft and floral on my skin for hours without turning cloying. Easily the most refined floral I've picked up this year.
