Bourbon French – Fleur de Royale

Fleur de Royale seems an odd name for a citrus scent, but there is a floral in here, unidentified on the website, which lists only bergamot and grapefruit notes. I would have expected a central rose, as that was certainly the favorite of many queens and empresses, especially Josephine Bonaparte. However, this is not a rose.

It hovers under those bright notes, making this a most unusual combination. I can recall few citrus scents that use florals, other than perhaps orange blossom to underscore bitter orange and petitgrain in citrus edcs. The intriguing thing is that I can't identify that floral note.

It is a dry, powdery floral with aspects of iris and that may just be the note itself.

Fleur de Royale is light and seems a perfect choice for summer wear for both men and women. It wears close to the skin and is appropriate for any setting.

A totally unique citrus scent and highly recommended.
