Community take

Yes, if you appreciate fresh florals with a smoky twist.

Néroli Outrenoir is often described as a unique blend of citrus and floral notes with an earthy undertone. Users appreciate the fresh and bright opening from the citrus notes, which transitions into a more complex heart featuring tea and smoke. This fragrance tends to attract those who enjoy unconventional scents, but some find the smoky aspect off-putting. It is generally recommended for spring and summer wear, especially for casual or daytime occasions. However, a few users mention that it can be polarizing due to its unusual drydown and the interplay of floral and smoky elements.
