Interesting. Nothing remotely orange in it to me.
Smells like Johnson & Johnson Baby Powder to me at first, then gradually smells like there's also maybe some Jasmine hiding in there. I usually can't stand perfumed snuffs but this one I can take every great once in a while (I've only sniffed it a very few times now and only a single dose at a time between other plainer snuffs, and never back to back with itself, never an urge to sniff a second time because then I suspect it might become miserable pretty quick ) but just once in a great while somehow sorta somewhat maybe actually enjoy this one, just once every great while.

Another masterpiece from Fribourg & Treyer. This is scented with Neroli oil and presumably nothing else. Neroli oil is derived from the blossoms of Seville oranges aka Bitter oranges. Now, flowers and fruits of the same plant often times are not very similar. There is an orange sense to this scent, but neroli is a truly unique scent. Its extensively used in perfumery and aromatherapy. After taking it a few times you will see why. It has an amazing relaxing and stimulating effect which is clearly felt beyond the ample nicotine of the snuff. This is perhaps F&Ts strongest scented snuff and second finest grind (after HDT).
It seems bitter and pungent out of the nose, but becomes sweet and delectable once inside. Absolutley amazing; a rare 5 star rating from me. Only this and Morlaix from this brand deserve more than 5 stars. Ideal for a nightcap, or as some would say: "dream-catching."

Tastes too much of rotten oranges for my taste, and it doesn´t get better with time. Quite fine and dry and a bit difficult to take, it can easily go too far up. The tobacco flavour comes through clearly and it´s the best thing about this snuff, but I just don´t like the Neroli flavouring in this one.

This is one of my favorite F&T snuffs. I often use this as my all-day snuff, since it is easy to take and satisfying in nicotine. I absolutely love the neroli flavor, and it is not sickly sweet as some fruity-snuffs. It has this bitter orange-peel scent, and first time I tried it, I immediately ordered two 50g tins :o) Highly recommendable!

Seville is not what I was expecting. When I heard it was made with flowers from a tree related to oranges, (or something like that) I was looking forward to a nice fruity/floral scent. This is not what I found. It smells like dirty oranges to me. At first I didn't really like it, but it has now really grown on me. The scent is very distinctive, you'll never mistake it for something else, and it is quite strong. It is not an all day, or every day snuff, but it is a good occasional treat for my nose.

Deep golden brown, medium grind and quite dry, this snuff is definitely distinctive and not one I would use too often. The scent is soapy and floral, rather than fruity, and is very relaxing. The scent lingers a long time and does not cloy, although with extended use the singular aroma can get tiresome. On the dry side for a Fribourg & Treyer snuff, with initial nose burn and some sneeziness, so perhaps not for beginners. 7/10.

fine, medium moisture due to the oils........to perfumy for me......not what I expected at all...but it is nice when it's cold outside........this one is very fragrant.....I was hoping for a subtle bitter orange scent that would merge with the tobacco for a deep scent.......but this is most certainly not that ........it's sweet.....for some reason it brings to mind an old, rich, perfume you'd think a western prostitute would slather on to cut through all the sweat and stench the cowboys would drag in off the range.....This one has a vintage scent......

Distinguishably Fribourg & Treyer. The flavor is drier than the moisture of the tobacco. Vintage fragrant neroli, somehow simple. Fine grind with an enjoyable burn. Requires a little care to take for the inexperienced. Quality blend, but not my favorite among the F&Ts.

Another decadent snuff from F&T:
You are listening to Laura Nyro, in your Levis' Gypsies and tie-dyed T. A mysterious guy, known only as Frank, hands you a tin of Seville and drawls, "try this, Man, it's ok, it's cool". As the sun sinks into the ocean a neroli-scented girl with long hair and rockpool eyes sits at your feet with the two Jacks - Kerouac and Daniel's. And you enter Nirvana.
You get the picture.

This is a fine snuff, but because it is moister than some it is easier to take. This example is very heavily scented. Neroli oil is made from the blossom of the bitter orange tree and features in many perfumes and is a staple in aromatherapy where the effect is considered to be soothing. Without inhaling the fragrance is bitter orange as one might expect. Upon inhalation the taste becomes intensely sweet and flowery. The effect reminds me of my dating years when, after leaving the lady in question, I was left an ineffaceable waft of perfume that clung to me for some hours thereafter. The texture is excellent and if you like Neroli oil and your snuff profoundly scented then you will enjoy this.

I can't imagine this being an all day snuff for anyone, but as an occasional treat it is wonderful. Flowery and perfumy orange. It is cloying but for some reason I find it cloying in a good way. It is very relaxing at the end of the day.

Trout is right on the money on the grind and moisture. I really like this snuff. It's low key and maybe even one-dimensional, but it has the right amount of flavor, fruity without being at all cloying or overpowering. It's pretty fine and dry and it takes some getting used to. I actually find F&T's HDT a bit easier to take. It's a good snuff you can use throughout the day without tiring of it. I get a really nice after-blow with this, the flavor seems to get even richer. A super nice snuff. If I liked orange more this would be a 5 star snuff.

This is my first F & T offering and I like it. Can't detect too much of a seville orange flavour, but it is easy to take with quite a lasting 'after taste'

This snuff is a fine grind and almost dry with the oils keeping it from being dry. For a fine snuff it is fairly easy to sniff as the oils do add a little weight to the snuff. It is a pretty enjoyable snuff with a light perfumed orange peelish scent that does hold on for some time. It reminds me of driving by the orange orchards when all the trees are in bloom. Its not very complex but still is one of my favorite F&T snuffs. Its just an easy snuff to enjoy.

This has a subtle orange scent to it and is quite a delicate snuff in my opinion. For some reason I can't understand,this makes me sneeze, which is something I thought I'd left behind twenty odd years ago. Whilst I would rate this as a good snuff, there is just a slight deficiency in character that stops it being great. Obviously, I'm on my own in that as its been made for a couple of hundred years I believe.

Very tasty! The orange flower flavour (neroli oil) is strong and astringent yet not excessively so and it lingers very well. The grind is quite fine, in fact nearly as fine as a high dry toast. That, coupled with the relative dryness of Seville means that care must be taken when sniffing or the result will be eye-watering! The colour is a pale yellow-brown, there is a good burn and the nicotine level certainly satisfies.

A beautiful simple fragrance. Fine and fluffy. Neroli, orange flower oil, is something special. A familiar scent for most makes a nice perfumed snuff for dreamland adventuring.
