Néroli Amara

Neroli Amara by Van Cleef & Arpels is a refined, bright citrus-floral scent centered on neroli and orange blossom, offering a soft, elegant, and refreshing experience perfect for spring and summer. It opens with a zingy blend of bergamot, mandarin, and pink pepper, which give way to a delicate, well-balanced heart of cypress and pear, adding depth without becoming dominant. The base features a crisp white musk that blends seamlessly with the neroli and orange blossom, creating a clean, slightly sweet, and airy dry down that feels both modern and timeless. It leans slightly feminine but is unisex in character, suitable for daytime wear. While the sillage is moderate and longevity is moderate to good, many users report it lasting 6 to 8 hours, especially in warm weather, with actual wear lasting beyond heats and under high-impact conditions. The fragrance has a subtle, graceful complexity that avoids being cloying, with notes of bitterness and freshness that elevate it beyond basic citrus offerings.
