Fresh flower forest.
Freshness is in the beginning even a bit bitter. The scent fades soon, it’s very very light EdT. There stays mild flower on the skin.
I can almost smell moss, but it’s a flower in a forest.
Reminds a bit of lily of the valley.
I was interested in this, because it was compared to 4711. A mild scent, that has something of old times, sounds tempting.
The pure innocent freshness is beautiful, and I think that this scent is like a newborn classic: the only one that could be available in shops. If the time was 1954, or 1964, as in the movie Les Parapluies de Cherbourg.
If the perfume is seen as unisex by someones, at least it’s not aftershave kind at all. I don’t feel it unisex. It’s non-sweet and fresh – but it’s flower.
“Soapy”, says someones – I didn’t get such impression of it.

This is lovely, quite an artful little creation from Yves Rocher. Patxaran kindly gave me a bottle of this. It’s quite sparkly and fizzy, whilst at the same time calming, and smells like it costs more than it does!

I adore, absolutely love, this underrated little gem. I love how it is neither overly masculine or feminine, just lovely, bright yet light, and clean. The petitgrain, which I adore, and lavender seem to balance out the orange blossom here and keep it from overwhelming the whole concoction; it seems to sit there and speak confidently without drowning out the other voices. I collect and wear hundreds of fragrances but this is one of the few I’d never want to be without. A take it to a desert island sort of scent. My happy dreams smell like this.

The scent of Elemis shampoo epitomises the ultimate clean, freshly showered sensation ever to me!
Not laundry like or aquatic – an expensive spa scent with a perfect balance of uplifting bergamot, tender orange blossom, feel good sage.
When you sweat, it smells even better, like the best version of your natural skin scent! Exuding luminous aura by every pore lol
Spectacular.
Since I couldn’t find this product anymore, I’ve been on a search for an equivalent in EDT.
This one comes quite close! But it’s clearly missing the complex aromatic components from the former, so I won’t wax lyrical about how it makes me feel like a better soul 2.1 bla bla bla.
Yes, the main note is orange blossom, with some zest from petit grain that’s neither sharp, nor deafening (those are the very same reasons why I loathe petit grain essential oil usually).
Lavender is weak but has enough presence to impart that pure and quasi euphoric feel I love so much from aromatic herbs.
A safe EDT of choice that won’t intimidate perfume adverse boyfriends.
The sillage is so weak my BF could hardly detect it anyway hahaha
He just believes this is my natural body smell (“Lovely!”), especially when I spray it on my hair.
Cool by me.

Genius fragrance for daily wear. Reminds me very much of Clarins’ Eau Resourcante, which I find very calming.
I keep a little bottle of this in my handbag and treat it like an eau de Cologne, spritzing it on trough the day to cool off.
I can’t think of a negative for this fragrance. It has a mandarin and cedar ‘sister’ that is also very good.
Archi111 – :
This is a lovely, light and fresh, very inexpensive fragrance that feels completely natural with no added sweetness or synthetic basenotes. The beautifully soft floral and soapy notes of orange blossom, lavender and petitgrain linger for a good five hours on my skin. Very soothing and totally unisex 🙂

Whenever I want to feel just-out-of-the-shower fresh and happy, or whenever I want to go to sleep feeling relaxed and ready for sweet, sweet dreams, this is the scent I turn to. And if you’re not into wearing frags just before bed (which I’m not, this is the only thing I can wear), not to worry, this is extremely light and pleasant – closer to an eau de cologne in my opinion.
kpab – :
Love it.
teivanivip – :
Very beautiful scent, the orange blossom is very strong, without being overly sweet, thanks to the lavender, I think. I use it as a body spray, after shower, it lasts less than 1 hour. Good for the price
AndreyW – :
Beautiful scent, standing out from the sweet mash up everybody is producing.For me the Lavender and the Petitgren are mostly prominent, while the orange blossom comes stronger with the drydown. It is very fresh and clean smell, maybe a little bit like an old-school soap bar, but in a very nice way. With it I know I smell unique and nice.
demashin – :
One note on longevity. I am spraying this as a body mist – everywhere and a lot. Under armpits even. And it lasts.
rochester – :
Very nice scent. On me this is mostly a semi sweet orange blossom with a tiny bit of green bitterness from the petitgrain. The lavender is in the background, and just adds a little depth and some type of cooling serenity to the smell. I really like it.
The sillage is somewhere between soft and medium, and the longevity is quite good. I get 5-6 hours out of this.
Lovely scent for summer days and nights. I especially enjoy wearing this just before bedtime. It’s really soothing and calming. 🙂

Orange blossom is one of the few notes in perfumery that should always go simple. Houses that over-complicate their orange blossom perfumes by adding musk, honey, powder, vetiver, myrrh etc suffer from losing the fundamental bright and crisp characteristics of the blossom. A real shame.
This is why YR’s Fleur d’Oranger Lavande Petit Grain shines. It smells exactly like the notes entail: a leafy dash of petitgrain in the foreground along with aromatic orange blossom, with the lavender giving it subtle “earthiness”. Inhaling this EDT is quite like smelling a blooming orange tree, with the flowers, leaves and barks.
Some caution for blind-buyers: this scent has no honey type of sweetness whatsoever. If you like your floral honeyed-sweet Seville a l`Aube from L`Artisan, or Fleurs d’Orange by Serge Lutens will work much better. If you’re a petitgrain junkie like I am though, this won’t disappoint.
The scent lasts at most 3 hours but with 20ml for $7 bucks you really can’t beat it. I also like to switch up to a different frag after a few hours with orange blossoms anyway, so this is perfect for me.

A simple scent with a refreshing bouquet of citrus, carries a nostalgic vibe for me. Although it doesn’t last long according to most reviewers, its longevity can be boosted if you use the Orange Flower Almond Body lotion by yves Rocher. It doesn’t list the same notes here but the body lotion is quite strong on the orange flower, so much so that it may be used instead of wearing fragrance. the almond in it is quite subtle, so if you like this fragrance try the body lotion too!
tolik1010 – :
Lovely, old time-y, easy to wear and very unisex. Sadly, it doesn’t last long. I usually wear it jogging outdoors or to the boat or whenever I just want to have a whiff of freshness around me.
It reminds me of my grandparents, which is lovely.
Isobbygob – :
Relaxing and Uplifting smell but lasts only a few minutes. 🙁
I also have the shower gel- hardly any smell to it so I added some drops of petit grain essential oil to give it a boost.
mixay33 – :
Sweet Orange Blossoms in a bottle with a faint hint of Lavender. Great to spray this one after a shower as a pick me up. I have the body lotion and plan to layer it for extended wear.
KingNews – :
This scent is so very cute! Bottled innocence and freshness. Pretty simple, if you like orange blossom you can’t go wrong with this. Lavender has a relaxing effect.
vovches – :
Ahh! This one had me at hello.
It is a beautiful, zesty, yet very relaxing blend. It feels like you are standing in the middle of lavender field while delicately squeezing orange leaves and flowers in your hands.
It doesn’t smell artificial like many others from this line. And I agree it is quite similar to Neroli Portofino. Yves Rocher lacks soapiness and smells like a good quality spa treatment.
The smell completely disappeared from my wrist while I was choosing a body lotion. So, we had to say good bye to each other, well, at hello.
Edit: Could not get it out of my head. Finally got in an oil form. It lasts more than an hour and makes me feel happy and peaceful. If you like EDT but it lasts only five minutes on your skin, try the oil.
dzhekzzz – :
An EDC type of fragrance, invigorating and aromatic, with lavender and petitgrain in the start. 15 minutes later it’s mostly the orange blossom that’s left, projecting a vaguely white-floral quality. To my nose it is absolutely unisex and very enjoyable. Longevity is far from stellar but the price justifies refreshing every now and then and pairing it up with the neroli/almond lotion improves the lasting power. It holds well on clothes and could make a great pillow scent. Pretty, fresh and uncomplicated, it reminds me more of the YR Agrumes en fleurs rather than the waxier and far more tenacious Secrets d’essences Neroli, which I own, love and wear year-round.
Cenpro – :
Definitely more orange blossom than lavender here. A very soft, comforting fragrance. Not long lasting, but cheap enough to spray whenever you like. It leans to the feminine side, but it’s worth a try for men too. Lovely, but fleeting.
Andr123 – :
Blindly ordered online, tempted by free delivery. For me this is a cheaper version of Neroli from Secrets D’Essences line, which also has notes of petitgrain and orange blossom. The only thing I can smell is orange blossom, no lavender, no other notes. I am not keen of this one at all (I don’t like Neroli either).
woodelfer – :
Indeed this one smells like classic EDC, only softer. It doesn’t last more than an hour.
ilaviiitech – :
A straightforward, classic eau de cologne. Lasts a couple of hours, fresh and reviving for days when you need a break from the big hitters in your fragrance collection.
