Orange Affair

Carolina Herrera Orange Affair is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2017. Orange Affair opens with Petitgrain, Citron, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Almond, Orange Blossom, and Rhubarb, and dries down to a base of Musk and Tonka Bean. Carolina Herrera's Orange Affair carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This one's a head-scratcher. It's pleasant and fresh, with some genuinely lovely facets, but the price tag for an EDT with middling performance has left a few people feeling mugged off. Dive in only if you can snag a deal - otherwise, you're paying a premium for a nice, but ultimately forgettable, orange.

About

Orange Affair opens with a zesty, bright blast of citron and mandarin, instantly invigorating the senses. This sunny introduction is swiftly mellowed by the unusual but captivating blend of orange blossom, a hint of powdery almond, and the sparkling, tart juiciness of rhubarb. The dry down is a soft, comforting whisper of musky sweetness and warm tonka bean, leaving a gentle, close-to-skin trail.
