About the album
Orange Flavored Love revolves around Nawal, a young Iraqi woman who takes care of her sick mother during war time. When the local pharmacy runs out of medicine Nawal is left to improvise. Getting hold of an orange — a rare treat in times of scarcity — she squeezes it, figuratively speaking, until the last drop.
Against the semi-visible backdrop of war, there is the human scale: the intimacy of homes, daily routines, conversations with neighbors or, indeed, a simple orange. These details are painted in colors so vivid that they overshadow the grimness of the so-called bigger picture. Orange Flavored Love therefore presents itself as anything but a tragedy, but as a tribute to humanity.

reviews
Alsouliman paints these details in colors so vivid that they overshadow the grimness of the bigger picture. Orange Flavored Love therefore presents itself as anything but a tragedy, but as a tribute to humanity.
— KASK & Conservatory editorial
Orange Flavoured Love depicts both the resilience of women in times of war, and complex, tangled feelings like maternal love or grief. Love was and still is in every seemingly negligible detail.
— Alfaro Decreton
This is an excellent soundtrack. I love how intimate and warm the score is ... the solo musicians seem to capture the closeness of the story and the emotions of the characters.
— Ariel Yznardo
