Neroli Voyage (2019)
by Floris

I absolutely adore the marine notes in this. This reminds me so much of classic spa massage oils and body lotions, and in a good way! Almost like the scent of pampering next to a zen stone waterfall in a big fluffy bathrobe awaiting your massage appointment while sipping on lemon ginger water. I'm reminded of Decléor's spa line in a way. Good memories of relaxing and pampering.

You are on a holiday island, cycling over hills and cliff tops. Your skin is kissed by the sun and the elegant blossoms of orange flowers waft past you. As you hit the top of the hill you are overwhelmed by the beauty of the view of the sea down below, cleansing sea air - as the scenery of tan beaches and clear calming blue waves fill your senses.
Later, sensual amber and refreshing fennel scented linen under the mosquito nets of your villa. Rustic house-made limoncello on ice. You are struck by the simplicity of it all and you are healed by the sound of the waves beating the shore. Musky candles illuminate the wooden terraces and you have a feeling its going to last forever.
You are revived. You never want this moment to end, this is pleasure and elegance - never look back, life is what you make it from now.
Close to AdP Colonia Club but oh so naturel and effortless. Initial sillage is a beast. An hour later though and you are left with a clean lotioney skin scent, not as soap-like as Floris's most traditional grown up scents. I will be wearing Neroli Voyage all summer and autumn - 8/10.
