Tom Ford Eau De Soleil Blanc

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

It opens on bitter orange, neroli and bergamot, moves through tuberose, tunisian orange blossom and ylang-ylang, and settles on coconut, vanilla and tonka bean.

• bitter orange: sour marmalade citrus, closer to peel than to juice
• neroli: the bright, just-squeezed side of orange blossom: green, clean and faintly bitter

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.
