By the editors · 2 min readBlood orange opens bright and juicy, its tart zest immediately sweetened by a sun-warmed apricot fuzz that clings to the skin. Within minutes white petals unfurl: magnolia adds cool creaminess, neroli brings a green-tinged sparkle, while jasmine and lily pump lush narcotic volume, all lifted by a cardamom snap that keeps the bouquet from turning syrupy. The ambergris-labdanum base arrives early, wrapping the flowers in a salty, skin-like musk and letting cedar splinters drift through like dry driftwood. Over hours the citrus recedes, leaving a hazy amber glow salted by musk and softly wooded, persistent but never loud. Projection stays at arm’s length for six hours, ideal for warm spring lunches or summer office days when you want brightness without shouting.
