If there is ONE blossom that is like pure perfume, it is the Orange Blossom or in French: FLEURS D'ORANGER! No wonder that the people from the renown French Côté Bastide company have used it in their line of products for years on end.
- Do you love to enjoy a bubble bath in the fall and winter time?
- What is YOUR favorite flower for fragrance?
Here they are together in the sunlight...
Côté Bastide FLEUR D'ORANGER Gel Moussant or Bath & Shower Gel and Eau de Toilette or Toilet Water
It is such a heavenly scent!
When our orange tree (in a pot) blooms outside on the greenhouse patio, one would love to bury one's nose in them. But be careful; those orange trees have mean thorns!
Far better to take the perfume from such a 6.6 oz or 200 ml bottle of Toilet Water.
- Works also great for spraying on freshly laundered and ironed bed linens for creating a romantic touch in the bedroom...
- As we learned from our consulting work in Asia, after dinner it is a great gesture for offering wet, rolled up wash cloths that are sprinkled with this Toilet Water...
- A total of three of those Côté Bastide FLEURS D'ORANGER toilet water bottles are available at my Zen Cart powered on line boutique Mariette's Back to Basics: French Côté Bastide FLEURS D'ORANGER Toilet Water.
- My pricing is VERY compatative as you can see when comparing to stores you find below my post.
Sorry Sold out...
Those blossoms are also full of pollen for the bees.
Have you ever tried orange blossom honey?
Also available for sale at my Zen Cart powered on line boutique are two Côté Bastide FLEURS D'ORANGER Bath & Shower Gel bottles of 24 oz or 750 ml.
French Côté Bastide FLEURS D'ORANGER Bath & Shower Gel.
Wish such a blooming season could be extended over a three month period!
All we can do is, enjoying it from the bottle...
Like +Maria Cecilia from Chile did in her post about Côté Bastide; just scroll down to see this FLEURS D'ORANGER

Thank you for your comment on Goro's video! Sounds like Spooky and Goro could be a good buddy to play with water :-)
DeleteThe sad thing is that our Spooky died of heart worm disease in March of 2007... Since than I've purchased always the treatment for our felines myself, one that includes heart worm as we did trust the Vet at that time and it proved he was NOT protected. We felt so sad about that, he was only 4-½ years old.
DeleteDear Mariette,
ReplyDeleteOrange blossom is so beautiful and just adore the sweet fragrance and yes, a bubble bath has to be the best sort of relaxing treat.
Happy new week
hugs
Carolyn
Dearest Carolyn,
DeleteYou bet that such a FLEUR D'ORANGER bubble bath is a relaxing treat!
Enjoy your new week and hope you still got some fragrant white stock left in a vase...
Hugs,
Mariette
The scent of oranges is delightful. One of my memories of Marrakech is the fragrance of oranges every where. I'd adore taking a bubble bath in one of these fragrances.
ReplyDeleteI've just returned from being out of town for the past week only to find that my blog is not updating on sidebars once again. Grrrrrrr! Checked my settings, and they are just as you had recommended. Any other ideas? ~ Sarah
Dearest Sarah,
DeleteOrange blossoms certainly are a delight for the senses! How many thousands of blossoms would it take for producing this gel moussant?
As for the blog not updating on sidebars, I have noticed that sometimes there is a delay of up to six hours for NO reason. So far I've not changed anything.
One never knows what's next, even though, Blogger is under Google and they should take care of it very well.
Enjoy your new week.
Hugs,
Mariette
Dearest Mariette,

Michiko

Have a wonderful time!
Hugs and Love to you always
Dearest Michiko,
DeleteSuch orange blossom products one indeed can enjoy tremendously.
When we lived in Italy, we did not have a garden though.... only two balconies.
Here in Georgia, USA we do have a huge garden but we have to keep our orange trees inside the green house during winter.
Hope the rain will soon stop so you can enjoy the outdoors again.
Hugs to you dear friend.
Mariette
Dear Mariette,

She hoped to fined a fine weather here!!She's not so lucky!!!
Wish you a happy new week!!Hugs!!
Dimi...
Dearest Dimi,
DeleteYou name all my favorite perfumes; orange blossom, jasmine and rose.
Too bad that your daughter encountered rainy weather in Greece. Oh my, after coming from cold Amsterdam she had looked forward to some warm sunshine... Sounds like our bad luck when we went to Florida last time. We had three days of rain... no sunshine and no swimming.
Hope it will clear up and she will get to enjoy the usual warm and sunny days.
Hugs,
Mariette
Dear Mariette,
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful these bottles are and the fragrance must be heavenly! Whenever we vacation in Phoenix in the spring, the air is perfumed with the scent of orange blossom. There is nothing as intoxicating! These would make lovely gifts. Hugs xo Karen
Dearest Karen,
DeleteThese are some of life's luxuries and save, without any toxic ingredients as in so many products nowadays. Pure from mother nature and as you mention about spring in Phoenix with the air perfumed by the orange blossom is heavenly!
I've used these several times as gifts and also as a bridal gift they would be perfect.
Hugs to you,
Mariette
