What does L'Eau d'Issey Pure Petale de Nectar smell like?

It opens with honey and pear juice, a sweet and juicy start. In the heart, rose absolute, rose water and rose oil shape the floral side, while lily of the valley and Maritima® keep the rose bright and watery. The base of sandalwood, cashmeran and ambergris settles it onto a soft, warm footing.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without being loud. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily and leisure wear, with some use at the office. Most voters find it feminine. Issey Miyake Nectar d'Issey and Mexx Waterlove Woman have a close profile.
