AIMS
To make an orange blossom accord.
THEMES
Floral, green.
STRENGTH
17.4% (EDP)
MATERIALS OF INTEREST
Oranger crystals - neroli, powder.
Auralva - floral, neroli.
NOTES
Orange Blossom is an indispensable note in perfumery and knowing how to make this accord will definitely help me to add elements of this classic flower to future blends. I followed the recipe that came with my introduction to perfumery kit.
This was my first time weighing out materials. Prior to this fragrance I had only measured by drops. Using the scale was more accurate.
I dropped too much petitgrain essential oil into my mixture and the final accord leaned green/bitter. Still pleasant with some wonderful orange blossom DNA to it though.
