Carolina Herrera Orange Affair

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, smells like food: caramel, chocolate, vanilla, bakery.

It opens on citron, mandarin orange and petitgrain, moves through orange blossom, rhubarb and almond, and settles on tonka bean and musk.

• citron: thick-peeled citrus, more bitter rind than juice
• mandarin orange: sweet, soft citrus. Gentler and less biting than lemon

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
