Donna Karan Mandarin Neroli ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 2 July 2012 10 Comments

Donna Karan Mandarin Neroli

Donna Karan will launch Mandarin Neroli, a new limited edition fragrance, this month. Mandarin Neroli joins the Donna Karan Collection fragrances.

This sophisticated citrus scent is the newest addition to the Donna Karan collection. Evocative and uplifting, the Mandarin and its orange blossom, neroli, are known to soothe sensitivities and inspire creativity.

The soft citrus sweetness is captured in a refreshing blend of Mandarin and neroli highlighted with a touch of zest. For a thread of sensuality, it is woven into the background with notes of amber, smooth woods, and a hint of incense.

Donna Karan Collection Mandarin Neroli is available now for pre-order at Neiman Marcus, 100 Eau De Parfum for $100.

    Why do i hate that phrase “Limited Edition”. How many times have i bought a “limited edition” only for it to become part of the regular line up after a while……….

    I have been very tempted to buy the labdanum in this collection ! Sounds nice but wonder if it will have a audience on the already crowded shelves in the dept store ! Curious about lasting power of this Edp !!!!

      Have to agree…hard to see how this is going to be a huge hit, even if it’s good.

    Sounds great! All those neroli, classy colognes speak a lot to me lately.

      I love neroli, but admit this doesn’t sound overwhelmingly fabulous…but of course I’m going to try it if I see it! They did do a good job on the original Essence collection.

    Count me in on this one! I ordered the Wenge and Labdanum un-sniffed and have loved them both. She doesn’t bring out a new one too often in this line, and none of them are the “F” word. Flankers.

    I tend to think this particular fragrance collection – the ones in the tall slender bottles of smoky glass – are done very well. Although the only one I own is ‘Signature’, I’ve sniffed the others, Wenge, Jasmine, the reissued Chaos and Fuel for Men and they all appear as if they were done with care – not slapped together in 5 minutes.

    On another note: How sad is it that when I see a fragrance costs $100, I think to myself “Why that’s practically free?” I guess ‘juice junkies’ can justify just about anything, eh? lol!

    I wonder how this will compare to Tom Ford’s Neroli Portofino…
