Essential Parfums Neroli Botanica EDP
Description
Neroli Botanica is Anne Flipo's 2024 love letter to Tunisian neroli: a radiant, sun-warmed floral that Fragrantica's reviewers have described as a "bath of light." Ginger and pink pepper open into a luminous jasmine-neroli-orange blossom heart before settling into sandalwood, benzoin, and vetiver.
Scent Character
- Floral: 36%
- Spicy: 27%
- Woody: 27%

Translation: a floral-forward neroli with real spice and woody depth, warmer and more textured than a typical citrus-neroli, less about sparkle, more about body.
