Latest Reviews of Oro
What a gorgeous concoction! Sweet & fruity & flowery. Not the usual sickly, fruity-sweet; a country store blend of apple, bergamot, and apricot. I smell a hint of iris. Patchouli and cinnamon here, are warming. Barely there freesia. Delightful amber, sandalwood, vanilla, and musk base. My Only complaint is, that Oro doesn't last long on my skin.
This is sort of like what you might experience if you were making an apple dessert while simmering some floral potpourri. It's definitely a certain kind of fragrance...a holiday, cold weather kind of scent. It's well done, user friendly and probably more unisex than femme. The bottle is a tad on the ridiculous side, but overall this is well enough done to earn a thumbs up and 8 stars out of 10.

l bought this blind on the recommendation of a lovely basenoter, & l have no regrets! This really is an unsung treasure, & was far & away my most worn fragrance this winter, because it's a perfect cold-weather daytime scent, just right for wearing to work.
l get a quite boozy opening, followed by warm, golden, spiced apples. Somewhere in the heart there's a smooth, creamy magnolia, & then a woody amber in the base. lt has a transparent feel despite the spices, in a similar way to Ambre Narguile, the sillage is soft, but it lasts well. l agree with awesomeness about the bottle!
This stuff is available dirt cheap on ebay, worth a blind buy if you like the sound of it!

Notes
Topnotes:magnolia,coriander,orris,pepper,apple and bergamot
Middle notes:apricot,patchouli,cinnamon,freesia and cedar
Basenotes:sandalwood,amber,musk,vanilla and guaiac wood.
I am reminded strongly of three other great fragrances Bang by Marc Jacobs,Pleasures by Estee Lauder,and Gucci Accenti(discontinued sadly).
The opening on me is sharp and peppery-similar to Bang or Pleasures or a combination of the two.
The middle and base are like a crossing of Accenti with Bang.The fruit is there in a supporting-sidekick-named-character,unlike the 'walk-on background extra'-freesia and magnolia.
The "STARS" of this show arepepper, cinnamon ,woods(patchouli,cedar,guaiac wood,sandalwood)and vanilla.
I think this is a excellent fragrance for either gender .I think it will be wearable in most weather and times(of day,of year).
This starts louder and gets softer over allday wear .Sprayed 8:45 am it is still there though more skin scentish by 7:30 pm.I sprayed about 4 times.
