   A decant of Orange Bitters sat in my box for weeks before I finally wore it. The heart is the best part for me: Bitter Orange and Sandalwood feel carefully balanced. Give it a little time and Bitter Orange with Sandalwood comes forward — smooth and well done. It is not the loudest scent I own, but the balance suits it well. The composition is well made but not for me.

   A decant of Orange Bitters sat in my box for weeks before I finally wore it. Give it a little time and Bitter Orange with Sandalwood comes forward — smooth and well done. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Bitter Orange with Sandalwood, which is where the fragrance really shines. In cooler weather it sits closer to the skin, which I actually prefer here. Well done — recommended if the notes appeal to you.

   A decant of Orange Bitters sat in my box for weeks before I finally wore it. Give it a little time and Bitter Orange with Sandalwood comes forward — smooth and well done. The heart is the best part for me: Bitter Orange and Sandalwood feel carefully balanced. The trail is there if someone steps close, not across the room. This one gets my highest praise — beautiful from start to finish.

   I picked up Orange Bitters (2016) mostly on a whim, and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The heart is the best part for me: Bitter Orange and Sandalwood feel carefully balanced. Give it a little time and Bitter Orange with Sandalwood comes forward — smooth and well done. It is not the loudest scent I own, but the balance suits it well. I would happily buy a full bottle.

   Jo Malone London knows how to compose, and Orange Bitters (2016) is proof. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Bitter Orange with Sandalwood, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Bitter Orange and Sandalwood feel carefully balanced. It is not the loudest scent I own, but the balance suits it well. I can see this getting a lot of wear in my collection.

   A couple of wears in, Orange Bitters has really grown on me. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Bitter Orange with Sandalwood, which is where the fragrance really shines. Give it a little time and Bitter Orange with Sandalwood comes forward — smooth and well done. Performance is consistent: comfortable sillage and several hours of wear on my skin. A solid addition for anyone who enjoys this style.

   My first Jo Malone London experience was this one, Orange Bitters (2016). After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Bitter Orange with Sandalwood, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Bitter Orange and Sandalwood feel carefully balanced. It is not the loudest scent I own, but the balance suits it well. The composition is well made but not for me.
