  1. A very sugary floral with a wallop of honey in the beginning. The honey softens a lot as it dries, making the florals more honeyed in scent, before it disappears. I don’t get any specific notes in this either – this is a seamless blend to me – but I get the subtle nuances of a watery rose, the sweetness from almond, and a slight creaminess from the orchid. It’s not a wet/humid floral, but dry.

  2. If you were to take white and light pink/peach-colored blossoms, place them on a slab of beeswax, and then drizzle the whole thing in honey, that’s what this smells like to me (with a very short-lived almond blast in the beginning). Probably the best honeyed floral I’ve ever smelled, which is perfect for spring.
