L'Originale
L'Originale by Moroccanoil is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum in the designer price tier. It opens with violet and citrus notes, moves into lily of the valley and vanilla and dries down to sandalwood, musk and amber. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
- Citrus Notes A mix of citrus peel with no single fruit named.
Heart
- Lily of the Valley Clean, green, dewy floral. Reads as 'fresh laundry' to most people.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
