Nectar of Love

On my skin, Nectar of Love was an intoxicating floral-oriental. The influence of the fruits are present in the top notes, where they serve to introduce the tuberose, but they do not manifest in the stereotypically juicy way seen in many mass marketed fruity-florals. Instead, they provide an edge to the floral opening, and set a clarifying tone to the fragrance experience. As the fruit notes fade, a voluptuous tuberose note takes hold, smoother than any tuberose note I've smelled before. What is so captivating about the heart phase is that the tuberose feels almost mystically grounded by the suggestion of sandalwood in the distance. But this isn't just any sandalwood either! Over the period of an hour, or so, the sandalwood slowly swells and unfolds to the point where it creates not quite a cloud, but a mesmerizing aura of woody warmth around the wearer. The texture of this sandalwood note is so sublime that I would compare it to the texture of the finest powder, yet the fragrance isn't powdery. Here in the base is also where a delicate rose note emerges, creating a fleshy (but not dewy!) feel to the fragrance, making Nectar of Love meld seamlessly with my skin. And I must note the warm, woody sandalwood base lasts FOREVER...around 6 to 8 hours on my skin, and that was from one drop from a sample vial. Yes, I would definitely classify this fragrance as a truly seductive floral-oriental on my skin!

Nectar of Love is a drug, a perfume that makes you addicted. Its velvety and sweet. Mysterious and deep. The opening catches you with a fresh citrus note, which immediately dives into the full bouquet of the middle note where everything from roses, over jasmine to neroli and tuberose awaits you. It has a powder effect, but doesnt' smell like powder. In the drydown a delicious vanilla note, covered with a blanket of sandalwood remain for hours on your skin. 6 hrs and counting. For a natural perfume, a long time and enough that I need. Nectar of love contains all the most precious absolutes, nothing spared. If you like it strong, feminine and sexy, this is it. I feel this is worth the price, the perfume goes a long way and one doesn't need much to apply.

Interesting perfume with a clearly floral soul, centered on tuberose. In this case the tuberose are wrapped in a sweet and ambery background, almost caramelized and very pleasant. It reminds me a lot of rodoass perfume by bepolar and a little of gold of puredistance, especially when drying. Nectar of love opens intensely although it quickly loses strength, remaining quite close to the skin, which makes it an easy perfume to wear despite its sweetness. The aroma also feels very natural. I see it for daily use under cold / temperate climates or for the night during spring and summer seasons. For me it is unisex although it tends a bit more towards the feminine side.

this scent feels sensuous and mature, slinky and sharp. like having sex in a forest or a heated discussion over gin cocktails. definitely leans more towards wood and amber for me, whatever floral scents slide under consciousness and only surface as afterthoughts. doesn't seem to have much radiance, and i would consider it an intimate fragrance. someone's nose would have to get pretty close to my neck to smell it properly. i really, really like this one, and definitely recommend if you enjoy funky, rich, bitter scents. january addition: today this smells milky, floral, effervescent. love it even more than last time, deeply satisfying and beautiful. not bitter, but now enveloping and soft.

What I have found over the years is, like juicing or eating fresh foods for a while, going back to superficial ones you used to like just don't hold the same romance, how could they next to nature. The beauty of this jewel is the tuberose is so lush and full - the highlights and nuances you only find in nature, it mingles with jasmine, that sexy sultry night flower that has a mysteriousness and depth about it with the sandalwood. The fruits dance around throughout perfectly balanced just so deliciously juicy. Ite is a cold winter here now and bringing this out instead of the heavier "sweater weather" preferences just made me smile all day....wanted to share some of that sunshine! xo
