Néroli Intense, from Nicolai Parfumeur Createur was released in 2018. The perfumer behind this creation is Patricia de Nicolai. It has the top notes of Mandarin Orange, Neroli, Orange, and Tarragon, middle notes of Orange Blossom, Petitgrain, and Pittosporum, and base notes of Beeswax, Musk, and Patchouli.
Néroli Intense - I was expecting yet another weak and pathetic neroli scent but this one surprised me, it actually lives up to the claim of being somewhat intense. Neroli is a note that when focused upon, needs to have a simple backbone to properly celebrate it. The rich, sultry soapiness of the neroli is perfected here. It’s balanced brilliantly and smells so fantastically realistic, if you close your eyes it’s almost as if you’re smelling it directly from the branches of the orange tree. The clean white aspect with vibrant hints of bitter orange and a touch of green aromatics it’s smoothed out by a gorgeously sweet and creamy beeswax note. This is fantastic. As neroli goes, I’m not usually the biggest fan but this is a really nice one. If you consider yourself a big lover of neroli this is a must try.
