PowderyWhat does Pleats Please 2012 (L'Elixir Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with pear, which gives a fruity, airy start. In the heart, sweet pea and peony bring the floral side, with green and powdery touches coming through. The base is led by cedar, patchouli and vanilla, settling into a sweet, lightly spicy finish on a woody ground. The overall impression is clean and soft, with a slightly synthetic sheen. Issey Miyake Pleats Please (Eau de Toilette) and Marc Jacobs Lola (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
