Azemour les Oranges Parfum d`Empire for women and men

Bottle:

Really nice bottle, towers over the rest of my collection. A great mirroring design to the name Parfum d'EMPIRE.

The Juice:

I simply love oranges and moss, so I had to try this.

Opens up with a very well-done orange scent. I get some rawness of mandarin peal and the sweeter scent of the main orange as well.

You slowly get the greener characteristics with moss enveloping a gentle touch of spice. I also get that gentle hint of lemon playing off well from the very orangey beginning.

This dries down into a beautiful, general green and citrus fragrance that makes you feel comfortable and joyous. It just reminds me of a great summers day with all your best pals around.

A really well-made fragrance :)

I got this one blind. Not very smart, I know, but "Les Oranges" and "Chypre" was all it took. When I sniffed it first I was so disappointed I wanted to cry...It smelled like someone forgot couple of oranges in the old grandma closet. But...I was wrong. I should learn by now to appreciate the complex, well made fragrances and give them time to breathe and enchant. And enchant this one did: It opens with the most delicious, yummy oranges, that you just want to eat it, but then Azemour develops into a classy chypre--dusty and subdued. That was the part that put me off initially, but now when I gave it time it turned into a very sophisticated orangy oakmoss. This one is definitely unique and not your run of the mill orange. Very versatile as well: classy suaree of starving artists, or weekend in Florida, or taking trash out in your pajamas, Azemour will be appropriate either way. I am now very happy with my blind buy.
