Néroli

Néroli goes with the rest of the Dernière Chance eleven at the end of the summer, on the house's own notice. At 2018 it is among the newer ones being dropped, and it is the group's straightest reading of orange blossom.

Here the house publishes an unusually complete pyramid: neroli with mandarin, orange and tarragon; pittosporum flower with orange blossom absolute and petitgrain bigarade; beeswax absolute, patchouli and musk underneath, at 84.8% natural. Patricia de Nicolaï describes the neroli as a floral light, vivid and calming at once, and it is the honeyed beeswax that does the softening.
