Miel Obscura

Golden fuzzy warmth with a vintage feel in the best possible way 🍯🪻🌹🌲✨️ The honey is a very realistic golden note with some creaminess from beeswax. The pine doesn't add anything sharp, rather a sap-like resinous richness. The cedar gives it depth and keeps the scent grounded and comforting. The florals are soft, powdery and complimenting. It's as if you are in the forrest on a warm summer's evening collecting wild honey while violets and roses bloom nearby. The warmth brings out the smell of the trees and their sap as you break pine needles underfoot. While I cant pick out a specific rose note, it's adding another floral layer. On me its a comforting skin scent - 3 sprays on each arm and I dont find it loud or overbearing. I love honey, I enjoy finding rare unique blends and this is absolutely satisfying that. I also love violet and vintage powdery perfumes - if you don't, this may lean 'soapy' or 'grandma' if that is how you've associated the softness of violet. It's subtley sweet - the way a quality honey should be. No overpowering sugar here. Rather a gentle sweet warmth from the caramel and depth from the cedar. Dry down is giving honey, beeswax, musky amber skin scent bubble - which is beautiful to me ✨️ I'm sitting in the warm sun in the garden while I wear this and the bees keep circling 🐝 so even they think it's realistic. It would be perfect in Autumn and I actually think this would be be beautiful in Summer - especially warm summer evenings. On me it isn't cloying and the added warmth from the sun makes this feel more decadent ✨️

It's a perfume for honey lovers... you'll smell like honey for 6 hours. Don't expect it to have sillage or incredible longevity because you'll be disappointed, but you'll have the scent of honey in your personal bubble. Highly recommended if you like honey because you'll smell like pure honey.

This was part of a bundle I ordered so wasn’t expecting much.. I love it! IMO it’s a powdery honey not too sweet or spicy (perfect balance) with a touch of freshness. I love pairing with VS Honey to amp it up a little more! If you like honey scents, definitely worth a try!

Unlike Pikachu777, the first thing I smell when wearing this is the honey, followed by the pine (in a not overwhelming way). This is one of the most interesting (in a very good way) fragrances I've tried this year.

It’ SO STRONG! This is a very ”strange” perfume but in a quite good way. At first it REALLY smells like a vintage perfume from 1989 but after a while you can really smell the honey in it. It still smells vintage at that time but in a much better way. Without the honey, it would have been a TERRIBLE scent. I just got it yesterday so I will let it macerate for a couple of months. I like it but I dont know if I could/will love it... Time will tell! I’ll give it a strong 6,5/10.

It starts off quite harsh with the pine, citrus and alcohol note; a bit off-putting. However, as it dries down around 15 minutes or so, it starts mellowing into a softer powdery floral honey that's quite realistic. It's not too sweet and cloying so it can be worn during hot or cold weather. One of the few honey perfumes where the bottle and the name actually match the scent.

This is a tricky one, at first I hated it and it didn't smell that much honey at all. Just flowers. Let it sit for about three months and now it's a honeyBOMB!. It's almost too much honey and it's sweet. Doesn't smell like Ellis Brooklyn Bee at all to my opinion. That one is more waxy, resinous honey with a lot less sweetness (which I prefer). After about 10 minutes it calms a bit to a smell similar to the bodyshops honey line. I like it when it calms down to this. If you're into sweet honey and don't mind flowers in the background, then this is for you. To me it gets a bit to cloying.

This smells like a beeswax polish my dad used to put on furniture when I was a kid. I'm not a big fan.

To me this smells like non of the notes. It starts with a funky scent blast, not honey, yes the scent has sweetness to it but not honey to me, I am honey addict and taste various honey around the world and it doesn't smell like any honey I know but rather a funky flower scent that I cannot put my finer on. Like a pollinated funky wild flower. The funk subsides a little bit but always lingers, it bothers me quite a bit. I will let it sit for a little bit but most likely get rid of it if it stays same.

This smells like my toiletries bag with toothpaste floating in it and feminine hygiene products. It’s a nope from me.

Soapy honey 🍯 scent with enormous projection and eternal longevity. It gives me headaches. Not overly sweet, it's special. Not for me

I bought this scent on a whim not knowing anything about it because the price was amazingly cheap at the time. I only get rich, sweet honey from this but i just love it. So long lasting also but not super strong which is fine and it layers with almost anything. I wore this yesterday with Versace Crystal noir, amazing btw, and 12 hours later this was still pretty strong on my skin. If you like honey this is a no brainer!
