Honey

As you can see by my username this note is very important to me. I have tried many different honey scented fragrance products and none came even close to achieving the level of realism Demeter has achieved here. No powders, no florals that don't fit just the scent of pollen mixed with the bees magic. I don't know how if they did a molecule analysis of real wildflower honey but they nailed it. It isn't overbearingly sweet and does not really replicate the smell of honey you would have up close but more the smell that would fill the room when making fresh honey. Longevity is surprisingly high for a cologne which employs relatively fleeting notes (6 hrs). Price is definitely worth the money with this one. Can also be layered with other white or yellow florals like Honeysuckle to make it a little bit lighter/seductive.

I’m fairly new to Demeter but I love the idea that you pick a note you love and layer with your favorites. I have the honey and the honeysuckle. The honey is like a bottle of honey, straight from the bear. However, when I spray it on over other perfumes it tends to cancel them out? This has he never happened. Either I go nose-blind, or it’s just sucked up all the sent (specifically Tokyomilk Honey and the Moon, Zoologist Bee or Marc Jacobs Daisy). I’ll try putting it on first next time. I’ve also had good luck spraying all over (at this price point, go in) and the putting on lotion. Lasted all day.

Wow this one is very long lasting on me for some reason, and my skin tends to eat up most scents. This is a great deal! Also really smells like honey in the sweet and sticky sense without the florals. I also have marc Jacob's honey and kim k pure honey. Those both have the smell of honey to me (though a lot of people can't detect it) but there are definitely flowers mixed in. This is just straight honey! I love it. I don't smell any floral at all in this one, but I see the other reviews are saying that so idk LOL our noses are different I guess.

This is one of the best Demeters, imo. First of all, I’ve never bought a frag from them that has lasted as long as Honey. I could still smell the dry down on me after I took a shower and had already worn it for over 8 hours. I love the scent itself as well—it’s exactly how honey tastes but with a little bit of a floral touch, very feminine and sweet. It’s also fun to layer with other florals and tea fragrances (my personal favorite combo is with Demeter Green Tea), but can still be worn on its own.

I was a tad bit hesitant that it'd smell too floral, but I'm glad I went again & got it anyway because it's NOT in the least bit just pure honey scent!! Ever so seductive in the sweetest sense, easy to layer with a variety of others & so I also bought the matching lotion. It's silage also gives it that sensual feel as it stays close to the skin but lightly projects.. If you're considering it, go ahead & buy it. You won't regret it!
