Time for a hint?

“Orange” is the definition.

I was thinking the answer is an anagram of y + saucers, but I couldn’t come up with anything.

If it’s a shade of orange, I couldn’t find any color that had those letters.

If it’s the Principality of Orange in France, it used to known as Arausicae. That’s the closest I can find, and it doesn’t overlap the previous answer.

Maybe it’s y + a synonym of saucers? Anagram of Yellow + Os? A homophone? A homonym? Something really simple I’m going to smack myself for not getting?
