D’ORSAY Etiquette Bleue is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 1830. Etiquette Bleue opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Rosemary, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rosewood, Myrrh, and Opoponax, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. D’ORSAY's Etiquette Bleue carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, nearly perfect composition that's airy, clean, and smells far more expensive than it is. The only downside? It won't last long, so be prepared to reapply often.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Limonene from Orange
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Etiquette Bleue opens with a beautifully preserved lemon and candied orange, given a unique herbal twist by rosemary. As it settles, orange blossom and myrrh lend a sweet, almost powdery depth, preventing the citrus from becoming too sharp. The dry down is a comforting embrace of soft vanilla, warm amber, and creamy sandalwood, making it fresh yet surprisingly complex.
