If you want them to be orange flavored try a combination
of fresh orange zest, some fresh orange juice and possibly add
either orange oil or a good quality orange extract.
I use the Boyajian citrus oils myself.

You'll have to experiment by baking one and then seeing what the taste
is like as the taste of the finished wafer will be different than the 
raw batter.
Orange flowered water can be cloying; I'd only use it in very small 
amounts for
perhaps delicate thin wafers.
You mentioned doing cinnamon and orange. You might want to try baking
just cinnamon in  half a batch and flavoring the other batch with the 
orange.
Then compare the two. Cloves (freshly ground) works well.
