Neroli is orange blossom, and it is one of the great smells: sweet, fresh, green and floral all at once, with a honeyed depth that unfolds slowly.
It takes an extraordinary volume of hand-picked blossom to produce a small amount of oil, which is why neroli has always been expensive and why this bottle is three percent neroli in jojoba rather than the neat oil. Jojoba is a stable, non-greasy carrier that keeps for years, so the dilution earns its place beyond simply making the price work.
The neroli itself comes from Citrus aurantium flowers grown in Italy. It reads as a middle to base note, so it lasts.
