by Jérôme Epinette

Laurent Mazzone Parfums Sensual Orchid is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Jérôme Epinette. The fragrance opens with Mandarin, Almond, and Neroli, settles into a heart of Heliotrope, Jasmine, Orchid, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Labdanum, Woody, and Musk.

Our verdict on Sensual Orchid: Acquired

This is a truly divisive scent; some call it a 'masterpiece' of luxurious, creamy florals and vanilla, while others are entirely underwhelmed, finding it generic or too sweet. It's either your dream gourmand floral or a 'pretentious fabric softener'.

Its potent projection and intense sweetness make it less suitable for the office or sport. However, its 'sensual' and 'luxurious' character, frequently described as a 'date night' or 'wedding perfume', makes it ideal for romantic evenings and formal events.

About

Sensual Orchid opens with a bright, subtly bitter almond mixed with a hint of citrus from mandarin and neroli, quickly ushering in a lush floral heart. Orchid, jasmine, peony, ylang-ylang, and heliotrope create a rich, sweet bouquet, which then settles into a creamy, warm base of vanilla and benzoin, rounded out by soft musk and a touch of cedar. The overall effect is a sweet, almost gourmand floral.
