In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Do not let the name fool you. Arancia contains no bright orange citrus juice, instead opening with rich golden amber and a sharp prickle of leathery saffron. It smells dense, warm, and distinctly dry right out of the nozzle. The initial alcohol flash burns off within two minutes, revealing an earthy heart of dry cedar…

Reviews →

Casablanca by Brown Girl Jane brings a sweet, smoky atmosphere. Clement Gavarry contrasts soft marshmallow with incense and dry suede, making this an intimate skin scent for cool winter evenings.
