What it smells like

Orange smells sweet, juicy and sunny, like the fresh oil from a peeled fruit, with a bright, slightly tangy zest. It is rounder and sweeter than lemon and less bitter than grapefruit, with a friendly, uplifting character. It is a quick, fleeting top note that gives fragrances an immediate burst of energy. It blends easily with florals, spices, woods and musks, adding freshness and a cheerful warmth.
