What you’ll learn from this formula

Real peel from a single material

small natural oils give it texture

  • Main skill

    Bringing it to life

    Two fifths of this formula is one bright orange-peel material. On its own it smells clean but flat, like a picture of an orange. A small dose of real lemon oil and an even smaller one of real orange oil add the bitterness, wax and juice of actual peel, while a sharp lemon-like material and a clean lime-like material sharpen its edge. Around it, a fruity apple-skin wood and a clear floral heart keep the large citrus from turning sugary — like oranges lifted from cold, clear water, glistening and real.

  • Supporting skill

    Lifting the opening

    Why a clear lavender-like floral and a honeyed rose, the two largest lines after the peel, are what you notice as the citrus fades.

  • Supporting skill

    Working with dilutions

    How two very strong materials — a juicy tropical fruit and a creamy sandalwood — are each weighed as a one-in-ten solution so that they work at a trace.

Description

Early light in the pantry of a grand Paris house: a shaft of sun across cream panelling, a gleaming silver basin of clear water on black marble, and oranges resting in it, one cut open. The first impression is the very moment an orange is peeled — sweet, loud and juicy — sharpened by lemon zest and a clean lime sparkle, with a splash of pineapple and the crisp skin of a green apple. As the peel softens, a clear, lavender-bright floral and a honeyed rose come forward, touched by a quiet white flower, a little ripe peach and a powdery violet petal. The dry-down stays light and close to the skin: a soft clean musk, a green balsam and a faint shadow of warm wood. A study in shaping one very large, bright citrus opening with many small notes around it.
