Jo Malone’s Orange Blossom Body Crème Loved by Whom You Know

Inspired by a stay at a hotel in Bel-Air, Orange Blossom is pure delight. It’s a lovely spring blend of fresh cut florals, crisp citrus and dewy greens. As refreshing as a garden stroll, Orange Blossom features top notes of lemon grass and crushed clementine leaves above a heart of Orange Blossom.  Finally, Water Lily reveals an unexpected twist of lilac. Whom You Know celebrates our 495th Product Alert post with this fabulous Jo Malone product!

The Composition

Top Notes: Cedrat Leaf, Clementine Flower, Lemongrass

Middle Notes: Orange Blossom, Water Lily, Lilac, Lily of the Valley

Fragrance Combining™ Tip: To fragrance combine, simply spray one cologne, let it dry, then spray a different Jo Malone fragrance over the top.  Or, try a body crème in one scent layered over a bath oil in another.  Part of the Jo Malone selection of floral fragrances, Orange Blossom combines with Nutmeg & Ginger to create a sensual aura. Or combine Orange Blossom with Honeysuckle & Jasmine for casual spring days.

 
Here is what the fabulous Whom You Know panel thought:

Jo Malone’s Orange Blossom Body Crème has to be one of my all time favorites.  This body crème is the most amazing product.  I could see a difference in how my skin felt and looked after using this.  It was so smooth, soft and made my skin glow.  You can count on this crème to exceed your expectations.  If I was stranded on a desert island, this is the one thing I would not want to live without.  This crème hydrates my skin so it does not feel tight or itchy.  Jo Malone is an advocate of combing fragrances by layering one on top of another.  The scent of clémentine will transport you to the most beautiful garden in the world.  Absolutely, makes for the perfect gift ……for yourself!

Jo Malone’s Orange Blossom Body Crème is such a fine emollient that only a small dap is needed.  A stay at a hotel in Bel-Air inspired it.  One can only imagine the delight!  It has a spring blend of fresh cut florals, crisp citrus and dewy greens.  Jo Malone’s Orange Blossom Body Crème top note features lemon grass and crushed clementine leaves with the main fragrance as Orange Blossom.  Water Lily exhibits its twist with the hint of lilac, topping off the total Orange Blossom aroma.  It comes in a very handy small container, easily carried in any bag.  This body crème is not greasy, just pure delight!  It leaves a smooth silkiness to especially rough, dry winter skin.   Yes, my favorite and a SURE WINNER!

I'm a big fan of citrus fruits, the taste and the smell is invigorating and reminds me of warm and sunny days.  Orange Blossom seems to capture and bottle that feeling for me.  While crisp citrus
is a main component of the fragrance, it's balanced and complemented with just the right floral notes of water lily and lilac, and dewy greens such as oakmoss to keep it just a bit earthy.  The Body Creme form is a great way to enjoy this fragrance in the wintertime, it provides the much needed moisturization and the scent really lasts, but is softer and muted.  For those of us who've suffered this brutally cold and long winter, just a whiff of Orange Blossom should transport you to thoughts of sunshine and warm days ahead!
