The story behind the bottle.
Celine Oriental Summer, launched in 2003, is a fragrance that balances the warmth of powdery almonds and vanilla with fresh citrus and spicy notes. The composition opens with mandarin orange and pepper, creating an initial burst of freshness before transitioning into a heart of heliotrope, iris, and jasmine. These floral elements add a soft, delicate layer to the scent, which then settles into a base of amber, sandalwood, and vanilla — warm and enveloping like a cozy embrace.
For best effect, apply this fragrance to pulse points for a gentle warmth that develops over time. Given its powdery and woody base notes, it pairs well with daytime activities but can also carry you through a mild evening.
