    So I received my dupe of Jo Malone's Orange Blossom (vendor was Tuscaderos) and I'd have to say that yes it was a very nice and medium throw floral, but it was more of what I'd consider a honeysuckle scent than an authentic orange blossom floral. If I was looking for a good honeysuckle then that would be great but still looking for that pure authentic orange blossom. Now, that's assuming that the real Jo Malone orange blossom also smells like honeysuckle blooms.

     

    I know that sometimes when both are blooming they are a little similar but to my nose the orange blossom floral is sweeter. I miss the smell of orange blossoms in bloom and my neighbor's tangelo tree was wiped out by a storm several yrs ago....sad.

     

    I wouldn't form an opinion based on a dupe as it could be inaccurate. If you go to any of the Jo Malone Orange blossom products on the Nordstrom website you will see a place to chat with a beauty representative. They will send you out samples for free.

    I did not know that...did she have candles in Jo Malone burning everywhere? Those candles are kinda small, so she must have had a lot! I once looked into the Jo Malone version but it had other florals in it as well, so it was not a pure scent...more of the artist's impression of the orange blossom floral. I've got a dupe of the Jo Malone Orange Blossom coming in the mail to sample so I'll find out first had in a little while.

     

    She had orange blossom, grapefruit, and lime basil and mandarin candles throughout the venue. Jo malone also makes huge 4 wick candles in addition to the smaller ones. If you go to the Jo Malone orange blossom fragrance on the nordstrom website you can chat with a beauty stylist and they can send you out samples so you can see if you like it. (I just contacted them to ask and they will be happy to help you.)

    [smilie=th_Hello_] and [smilie=th_we0081] It is a good idea to get on Yankee/Bath&Body Works Mailing list. Yankee frequently has buy one get one free cooupons so that is a good way to try out candles from them. Bath & Body Works also frequently has their large candles on sale 2 for $22 and when you use a $10 off $30 coupon you can get three large candles for $22. (BBW sometimes emails out coupons and if you have a store nearby survey coupons sometimes print on the bottom of your reciept.)
