Maison Orris

Citrus

Orange-Flower Water

Original designation: Eaux des orangers

Citrus × aurantium L.

Orange-flower water offers the bloom in translucent form—fresh, gently green and touched with honey rather than saturated. It brings the grace of a traditional distillation room to light floral compositions.

Orange-Flower Water

Olfactive character

Top note

In perfumery vocabulary, Orange-Flower Water is associated with watery white flower, green citrus, soft neroli, honey trace, clean petal and fresh twig. Its creative role is an agile top-note instrument with vivid lift, giving structure and character to complex accords.

At the perfumer’s organ

In the organ, use it to build eau fraîche florals, enrich cologne hearts and introduce delicate neroli accords. As top note, it offers signature rather than mere theme.

  • cologne hearts
  • delicate neroli accords
  • watery bouquets

Extraction & expression

This is a historical specialty grade whose complete designation is part of its character. In the organ it should be approached as a distinctive colour in its own right—an invitation to evaluate its period effect and creative tension.
