Lemon blossom: The citrus blossom becomes musk and honey ...
Fleurs d'Oranger offers a very "Lutensian" interpretation of the pretty Mediterranean by offering it in a flowery and luminous fragrance to perfume the greyness of sun and flowers. No sobriety in this exhilarating flowery where orange blossom becomes velvety and sensual.
What if the fragrance of Lutens Fleurs d'Oranger hid other wonders?
After having worked for a long time on typically oriental raw materials, Lutens and Christopher Sheldrake developed a sunny scent composition of course, but with a more European than Eastern light. The opulent and flowery Orange Blossoms was born in 2003.
Of course, Fleurs d'Oranger de Lutens had to treat this flower that has become familiar by offering a new and original juice, which was also a source of discontent for neroli flower purists who do not recognize it from this fragrance. To ask Lutens to do classical music would not be to deny his genius for excess and creation?
Orange Blossoms is therefore a sparkling, very Lutensian cocktail, blossoming with orange blossom of course, but also sprinkled with the floral scents most present in master Lutens' favorite lands. Flowers that Lutens has already proposed previously such as the splendid jasmine and the pretty tuberose from À La Nuit or even the royal rose of Her Majesty the rose. However, until now, Lutens had never made them appear in one and the same scent. He therefore makes the evil tongues lie who saw him only as the creator of dark and mysterious perfumed works.
An explosion of flowers and sensuality in a fragrant bouquet called Orange Blossom
The luminous and very solar Orange Blossoms radiates its orange aura beyond the now cult bottle of the Lutens house. Dazzled by its rays, we only ask to open this precious case to finally have the joy of tasting this multivitamin nectar.
The very hesperidic top notes thanks to the lemon surprise us so much Lutens had never accustomed us to such fresh scents. Then the precious heart of sunny flowers comes to intoxicate us with its orange blossom delicacies of course, but also jasmine, white rose and tuberose. This divine mixture will be punctuated by sweet nutmeg which perhaps then signal the imminent arrival of a new surprise. Sensuality of course! The radiant flower will transform into a velvety caress thanks to tonkin musk, hibiscus and caraway. “The smell of happiness. Isn't the orange blossom already a fruit, a nascent zephyr, a child's kiss ... It is the enchantress. »Tells us Lutens for Fleurs d'Oranger.
Orange Blossoms therefore does not resemble the scent… of an orange blossom. Is. So what ? With this sublime radiant and luminous perfume Lutens signs one of his most exquisite works. At the same time, he demonstrates that he is not only a chiaroscuro artist but also quite simply a luminous artist. Maybe also a little illuminated!
