Pros & Cons
- ✅ The honey, pear, rose combo is really addictive and feminine. It is a sweet fragrance but I prefer this EDT version to the EDP (Pure Nectar) which is denser and a bit too sweet for me. This lasts over 8 hours on my skin with arms length projection. It has a beautiful scent bubble. IMO, this has a smiliar vibe to Lancome Idol. Idol would be the younger, carefree sister and this would be the bolder older sister. I think it's worth giving a try.
- ✅ I love this smell on a woman, I get a rich flowery but not rosey opening mixed with a pleasant fruit and honey smell. It's fairly lasting but the juiciness is gone pretty quickly. I get white flower notes a bit more than rose to be honest. The dry down has a pleasant soft woody note, but you have to get up close. Versatile enough, good for the office as well as informal occasions. Should work for spring, end of summer and early fall.
- ✅ The opening is pretty nectar, just like a petal from a pear blossom then it dries down a very oriental floral with a creamy musk. The nectar note remains throughout and has a beautiful peppery sharpness. Good for spring. I like it. Oh and it has this papery note that honestly reminds me of the silver paper that you get in a box of Silk Cut cigarettes - not a bad smell just a papery newness that’s distinctive
- ❌ I actually get white-ish flowers rather than rose, and a bit of honey. It smells fine, but doesn't smell modern.
