By the editors · 2 min readFrom Kenzo's Totem collection — a set of single-color perfumes — Totem Orange takes citrus as its building material. The opening is lemon and bitter orange, the latter adding herbal tartness that keeps sweetness in check. Lemon flower provides the heart — greener and drier than the fruit — joined by peach for a brief moment of warmth before vetiver takes the composition earthward. The base is clean and slightly dry, cedar-supported. Totem Orange wears as a modern fresh scent with more character than the category average; the bitter orange note prevents it from collapsing into the sweetness that typically defines orange-coded fragrances.
