Chanel Egoiste has Tangerine and Rose. The tangerine does change quickly, though, as most citrus notes do.

In the BN directory, you can search by notes to find others.

Not orange and rose specifically but, I would recommend trying Penhaligons Castile, for a beautiful fresh neroli and rose combo.

Though I haven't tried myself, but Acqua di Parma Colonia also get a lot of recommendation.

Some complain that AdP Colonia does not have good longevity, but I agree it is a contender as far as notes go.

Les Parfums de Rosine's Rosa Flamenca comes to mind.

I'm going to steal tigrushka's review:
Very bright, warm and sunny interpretation of Rosine's rose theme, this time with a more Mediterranean flavour thanks to jasmine, orange blossom, neroli and citrus notes. This one makes me want to drink sangria and wear flame-coloured roses in my hair!

JPG Ma Dame Eau Fraiche (summer). Fizzy Oranges with Rose. Not sure about longevity yet.

I found very little actual citrus in Rosa Flamenca but it is heavy on the orange blossom. What little actual citrus that is the juice dissipates almost immediately.
