My favorite Atelier Des Ors has to be Pomelo Riviera and while I think it’s better than Blanc Polychrome, the latter is still a good fragrance in a similar direction.

Blanc Polychrome has a very bright, zesty citrus opening, with a hint of jasmine. Whereas I find Pomelo Riviera more sparkling and lifelike, Blanc Polychrome feels more fizzy (not flat, but less outspoken) and synthetic in a way. More of a lemonade than a squeezed fruit.

The base has a slightly green, very white musky character. If Pomelo Riviera stays citrussy and Riviera Drive goes more floral, Blanc Polychrome gets the most musky on my skin.
