Serge Lutens celebrates spring with Fleurs de Citronnier (lemon blossom). This perfume belongs to oriental olfactive group and it expands our knowledge about it by its freshness and gentleness. Lutens has used only rare materials of high quality, as always. Lemon blossom is dominant, of course, and can be found in the top and middle notes. It is accompanied by petitgrain, neroli, white honey (favourite to Lutens). The base incorporates iris, several sorts of musk and styrax resin.
Fleurs de Citronnier can be used by men, as well. The perfume was created by Christopher Sheldrake in 2004.
I feel too musculine. I do not feel clean citruses. I feel wood-bases.
I cracked up reading the above reviews of how disgusting this scent is---naturally, that means it will smell good on me! I get something completely different--honeysuckle! It smells really nice on me--fresh and light and flowery, with no noticeable citrus. I have tried many honeysuckle scents and never find any I like. Oddly enough, this one is it! I definitely get the tuberose, but it doesn't overwhelm me as it so often does when it's prominent. This one really works on me as a warm-weather scent.
Fleurs de Citronnier smells like lemon pie on my skin!Slightly gourmand maybe because of musk note,a bit sweet as time passes..I couldn't detect tuberose,lemon blossom is too prominent!I really enjoyed it,despite wearing it during cold weather.It can be extremely wearable all year round.The drydown is a combination of neroli,musky notes and lemon blossom.which again reminds me of lemon pie!There's a similarity to Penhaligon's Castile with the only difference that Castile is a bit more soapy and not so creamy.Lasting power is a average,sillage is low though.
totally agree with jackoatmon, this smells like cheap car air freshener & nauseating...luckily i only got a tester, but every time i want to give it one more try i regret very much...
Top notes include Cheap Car Air Freshener and Pinesol. The scent then dries down into a lemon-extract/dusty upholstry/stomach bile accord, before settling into lemon-flavoured flu medicine for the extreme drydown.
Why any humans would ever voluntarily wear this vile concoction is beyond my comprehension. It is the most synthetic and nauseating fragrance I have smelled.
Orange blossoms in a creamy base that smells in the end like orange blossom hand lotion. Nice, but sort of unexciting. Remarkably straight forward for Serge Lutens, who tends to blend very complex symphonies. Worth a try for orange blossom lovers.
This starts as a warm, honeyed neroli, which surprised me given neroli's typically radiant, green-floral, almost bitter aroma. There is also something unexpectedly chypre-like about this perfume in the initial stages (not quite sure where this comes from).
The drydown is decidedly powdery and musky, but not to the point where the neroli scent is lost. I find some similarities in this to Prada's Infusion d'Iris, which I think has a similar gentle, elegant character.
All in all, this is a really lovely perfume – perfect for daytime, but I prefer my neroli a little more on the fresh and biting side.
Though the blooming citrus note is very clear, there is something in it that smells like a rotten orange - slightly nauseating.The base is better then the beginning, in my opinion - still the flowers and the musky undertones but without that particular note. I am still not sure if I like it or not!
This scent brings me memories of my childhood in my hometown, Murcia (Spain), when I used to go with my grandfather to the park to feed the doves. Murcia is a city in the south-east of Spain and, in spring, the scent of lemon trees and orange trees is everywhere.
I think Fleurs de citronnier is more about orange flowers than lemon tree flowers, and it's cologny in a good sense. I don't get tuberose at all.
One of the most beautiful Serge Lutens scents. Superb!
