Pros & Cons
- ✅ Very photorealistic Neroli, the whole tree, fruit and blossom.... very green, very bitter with the petitgrain blast in the opening, plus an indolic jasmine which packs quite a punch.
- ✅ This is a lovely aromatic citrus that leans unisex, and has more character than Nerolia Bianca... it is more bitter than sweet, and leaves a nice soapy trail in its wake.
- ✅ Wearing Flora Nerolia makes me happy; it is such an uplifting, joyous scent that spraying it onto my skin immediately improves my day.
- ✅ I can't believe how good this is. This isn't fake orange or bitter orange zest. This isn't harsh or abrasive. The neroli and jasmine blend beautifully to make this both creamy and bright at the same time.
- ❌ I felt as though I had been punched in the nose with a brass-knuckled fist bearing a large bunch of ripe-to-the-point-of-turning lillies.
- ❌ Tried this while wandering through Epcot's French pavilion on a 95 degree day. Beautiful off the nozzle but when on my skin, turned to a public restroom in 5 minutes.
- ❌ I had it but didn't like it because it was hard to breathe wearing this. The fragrance has a touch of vintage style in my opinion - I sometimes like it, but not in this Aqua Allegoria.
- ❌ The longevity is incredibly poor though. Even on clothing it disappears quickly.
