Honey Suite

Such a sleeper hit! Great honey fragrance! I was not expecting to like this as much as I do. Honey scents are so tricky. I totally wrote it off at first, but grabbed it from Ulta at 30% off for Black Friday because it would be easy to return if I hated it. This one is super sweet and woody with a powdery texture, but still super smooth, and also aromatic with a bit of lavender. Does not smell medicinal or syrupy like Ellis Brooklyn Bee, which definitely goes into Ricola cough drop territory for me. Honey Suite actually smells like honey and the woodiness and lavender go black tea-like for me. It makes me feel like I'm sticking my face in a bag of fancy loose leaf lavender black tea with an entire vat of super sweet farmers market honey right next to me. It almost reminds me of a Kilian style DNA, in that there is something that reminds of Smoking Hot and maybe a bit of Angels Share (though in no way a dupe). Maybe it's a little boozy? I love the way the woodiness is done. It definitely smells more expensive than it is, except for how sweet it is. I don't really get any incense, which I am happy about. I was also a little worried about the saffron too, but it's nothing resembling BR540. I'm not getting anything resinous, which I tend to be super sensitive to. For context, I am a fan of Snif as a brand and this one would be in my top 3. I also love Soda Snob, Crumb Couture, Coco Shimmy, Citrus Circus and Vanilla Vice. Wasn't as big of a fan of Rose Era or Sweet Ash. I do like Tart Deco and Heal the Way, but am not big on Cherry or Palo Santo, so just not for me, though I've been tempted many times to buy both when they go on sale. Slice Society is fun too, but less "wearable". Naughty Nona is also on its way to me. This definitely makes me want to try Vow Factor!

I've been eyeing this scent for so long and finally snatched 10 ml on Black Friday sale and OMG. I wasn't expecting to love it this much. It's the most subtle and comforting honey perfume I've smelled so far. I've always been intrigued by this note and wanted to find that warm gentle honey scent that is easy to wear and this is exactly that. It was a love at first sniff. The opening is pretty saffron and honey forward, and then the scent settles into more of a steamed milk with honey and a touch of frankincense and vanilla. It almost starts to smell like a beeswax candle in a cathedral. It's so delicate and creamy yet a little spicy and warm. I don't really get lavender which usually tends to be a little harsh on my skin, so it's super well blended. The only downside is longevity as it seems to be holding to my skin for maybe about 4 hours but I still love it and would just reapply it. I think it would be a solid full bottle purchase once I'm done with my travel size because I seem to use it up very fast!

I'm really enjoying this. But it's not what I expected. It is not your typical honey scent. I don't think it smells like either of the Bee's (Zoologist or Ellis Brooklyn). This is an incense perfume through and through. I'm hard pressed to find any honey at all actually. But I like it! It's dark, it's mysterious. Lots of incense so if you're not a fan of that note, this probably won't work for you. It would be nice if I could get a little bit of sweetness from the honey but it's just not there. Maybe as it matures, that hidden honey note will become noticeable to me. All of that being said, I like incense-y types of perfumes so this is a win for me. I also wasn't sure how I'd get along with the saffron note as it's not a note I normally vibe with (although lately, I seen to be more tolerant of) but it's in the background and it's not leathery like saffron can be. Oh and performance is EXTREMELY good with potent longevity and projection. Can't beat it for the price. 😁

this scent had to grow on me a little because it's different in my collection, but it went from a like to a love. honey suite is a beautiful scent. the opening is the most astringent-- i can smell the honey the entirety of the fragrance but the sweetness is the most balanced upon first spray. shortly after, i start to pick up on the florals and aromatics as the honey also gets sweeter. by the dry down, i get a very warm, wildflower honey with a touch of woody vanilla. when i first received it, i restricted it to a bedtime scent because i find it to be incredibly sweet, comforting, and often associate lavender, vanilla, honey notes with sleep. but as it gets colder, i find myself wanting to reach for it during the day. i wouldn't dare wear this in the heat because i would certainly either choke or be chased by bees. i have only worn this to bed so i can't speak to longevity on skin, but i do still smell it on my clothes when i wake up.

Crystallized Honey, Broom Absolute, Incense, Havanawood, Lavender Flower, and Vanilla Bourbon...? It's a beautifully unexpected scent. Woody, yet syrupy and somewhat powdery. It's perfect as an Autumnal fragrance for its earthy, witchy qualities and vintage feel (vintage in that it smells like old things, not nessisarily a vintage perfume). This is how honey is meant to be. The sillage and longevity are great! Lasts an entire 9 hrs before it starts to fade a bit, but it lasts forever on clothes. At first I wasn't sure how I felt about it, but it but I've worn it almost every day since it came in the mail. I didn't really catch on to the "honeymoon" theme of the bottle/promotion (even tho it was pretty obvious lol), so if the bottle turns you off or doesn't feel like it fits the notes, you're not the only one! It's well worth the try!

Honey Suite feels like poring over a desk in a dilapidated library while the warm sun filters through the high windows, catching dust in the air. It also brings to mind that celestial decor that was popular in the 90s (iykyk). I understand why some people call it “witchy” or “gothic”, it’s just the right about of moody with a touch of something very magical and whimsical. This isn’t chains and leather, it’s more hippie, whimsigoth, or dark academia. In the bottle, the incense notes are much more noticeable to my nose, but they’re much softer (while still present) and comforting on my skin, where the honey seems to take center stage. This isn’t a gourmand honey, either. It’s warm but not cloying, like bathing in the sun in that picture I painted above. It’s really the perfect fall scent and I can’t wait to wear this all season.

Mmm, I love this! I was concerned about the broom note and comparisons to Ellis Brooklyn's Bee - a perfume which is absolutely nauseating for me. Thankfully, while I can somewhat see the comparisons, Honey Suite is far better blended. It is first and foremost a honey fragrance, but not in an overly sweet or gourmand way. It is backed by the lavender and frakincense, maybe some of the cedar, and it melds together to create a very lovely and comforting scent. It makes me want to relax and fall asleep! It's more unique, nothing extremely groundbreaking, but I don't have many frags like this so it's definitely a keeper for me. Definitely unisex, and my husband loved this too. More of a cool weather fragrance IMO. It doesn't seem to project that well for me, unfortunately, even on clothes, but longevity is decent (few hours).

This is the best smelling fragrance from Snif yet. This review has nothing to do with Emelia’s popularity, though well-deserved. This is strictly about the perfume. I’ve worn this every day for 2 weeks. Not only do I love it, but I get compliments every time I go out. It’s not a gourmand fragrance, but gourmand lovers will like it. It’s warm, confident, and smooth. I feel beautiful when I wear it. The honey is both strong and delicate. It doesn’t muddy the other notes. The broom absolute is a lovely yellow floral that coordinates so well with honey. It’s spicy but not overly so. The vanilla is boozy, not like a cookie. This is not a weak perfume, it stays and produces a decent but not obnoxious scent bubble. Absolutely worth the price. It smells expensive, but still inviting and approachable. I’m in love with it.

An elegant, mysterious, and alluring scent. It’s a little dark and vampy, thanks to the incense and bourbon. A little earthy and woody as well from the davana and cedar, which grounds the sweetness from the honey and vanilla. The florals here are beautifully complementary and I love the edge that the lavender is giving this. It’s absolutely a “witchy” fragrance in my mind; to me that means dark, mysterious, a little earthy, and yet beautiful and sophisticated. It smells so much more expensive than it is. It’s an intoxicating and alluring fragrance that I think will have those around you intrigued and bewitched!

Softer, smoother, and cozier than Ellis Brooklyn Bee. The opening is definitely reminiscent, but the development of this scent is stunning. I wish it came in a larger bottle, because I can’t seem to get this out of my system. If you could wash your clothes with honey and rum and dry them with vanilla and a touch of incense, this is how they would smell fresh out the dryer...still warm. It performs well. It is both sensual and comforting. Packaging and presentation are the stuff nostalgia is made of. Top to bottom...just incredible!

A really interesting, unsweet honey (I know, like... what?) Depending on your body chemistry, the incense may become overpowering as it dries down. The comment describing this as "witchy" is spot-on to me. It has whimsigoth love potion vibes. From a house with some notorious powerhouse gourmands, I was really impressed with the depth and complexity here. The honey note is not gourmand at all, it's almost spicy. Unique and sensual fragrance at a very reasonable price!

I would bathe in this if I could. Such a unique and beautiful honey scent. The frankincense deepens it and makes it feel aged but in the perfect way to help balance out the sweetness. Absolutely a favorite of mine but not for everyone as honey can be an interesting note. There's no weird pissy note or anything but honey is just one of those interesting smells. If you are curious and can find a sample, absolutely go for it. Wearable yet still fun.

This is magical. Magic in a bottle. The start of this is pure dark, waxy honeycomb, but as everyone else has already said, it dries down into a spicy, witchy, gothic scent that has just enough sweetness to add a touch of whimsy, like a grin. There's a rich, deep aroma to this from the frankincense and honey, and the davana note, which I recognize from Heal the Way, adds a sharp herbal hit that brightens it up a tad. I simply adore this.

at first spray, i was scared. now as i have used it serval times, just... wow, honey suite is phenomenal. this is something a fortune teller or some mysterious, powerful woman wears. a sexy, herbal witches brew. sultry, spicy, sweet. this itches something in my brain... my first and favorite snif fragrance i own. my holy grail. PLEASE snif.. never discontinue this masterpiece. ✩+ ̊.⋆☾⋆++✧

A gorgeous, smooth, sophisticated honey fragrance. It’s sweet and deep, but the lavender gives it this brightness that keeps it from being cloying. It reminds me of those flavored honey sticks. Soothing, fresh, sweet and delicious. I keep sniffing my wrists where I sprayed, it’s so good. This is one I’ll keep repurchasing as long as it’s available.

The steamiest make out session you’ve ever had in a bottle. It’s slightly smoky at first before flecking into the richness of honey. It’s sweet and sexy. The saffron leads in the beginning performance and then it becomes slick honey grounded with woods. I really love this one and the performance is great! 6 hours later and I can still smell it.

Usually sweet perfumes give me headaches, but the more medicinal smelling notes and woody notes balance it perfectly. The smell almost reminds me of honey lemon cough drops and I say that as a compliment. Unlike any other perfume I own and I find myself not only reaching for this, but also thinking of the scent from time to time.

How am I the only one getting Princess by Kilian from this? It’s nice but it was instantly familiar. The powdery sweetness is almost identical to Kilian’s Princess. The only real difference being that honey note. Not at all similar to Ellis Brooklyn Bee which I actually prefer for a photorealistic honey scent.

Gorgeous scent exactly how described. I smell all the notes listed in a beautiful smokey, slightly sweet and aromatic blend. The honey still manages to be the star of the show a little while after dry down now. Incense smell does get sharper with the dry down so that part might not be for everyone.

As many, many others have already said, this definitely has that “witchy apothecary” vibe, majorly. It brings to mind potions and cauldrons. The honey is not overly sweet. This scent is rich and has a lot of depth. It’s moody and seductive. Slightly woody. This is gorgeous in the fall and winter!
