Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth

First, you smell orange mandarin, as if it was just picked from the tree. Bright notes of neroli immediately hit your nose. And then honey with wax appears, as if you found real honeycomb and are tasting it. There's something viscous in the scent, like honey, but at the same time not too cloying, which is a pleasant surprise. Closer to the end, more vanilla and musk are felt, and the sweetness of honey gradually fades. Overall, a quite positive impression, but there's something mysterious about this fragrance 🤔
5/5

A wonderful honey scent, as if I'm in an apiary!! For me, it's almost a copy of Amarige by Givenchy, very successful. Although I'm usually not a fan of this brand, all their fragrances seem too chemical. But these ones are truly beautiful. The bottle with the bees - extra respect!
4/5

I looked at this scent, the bottle is standing there, and I kept scoffing at it. But now it smells just great, like honey nectar and honey. Yes, there's a bit of chemical artificiality, but now I perceive it as part of perfumery. In short, now I like it

Tested it again today at Rive Gauche. There are discounts on it, so maybe it's worth getting. The honey notes are somewhat hidden, no honey in the usual sense. Unless it's very diluted. Overall, the scent is sunny, floral, and quite pleasant, especially in such rainy and gloomy weather 🌧️
5/5

This perfume from Donna Karan's new line definitely stands out, but not in a good way. The sweetness of honey is just overwhelming, and it makes me uncomfortable. If it weren't for those natural notes, I wouldn't even consider it. Interesting? Yes, but only if you like perfumes that suffocate. Personally, I can't stand honey in perfumes, so for me, it's a complete flop
2/5

The scent brings sad thoughts, it's too bright and intrusive. Citrus and fruits seem to scream about summer, but inside me there's only longing. Honey adds sweetness, but it doesn't save from the feeling that all good things have passed. Summer is leaving, and with it, joy, leaving only memories of ripe fruits and warmth 🍂
3/5

DKNY generally doesn't excite me much, but this fragrance still caught my attention. The honey note here is truly delightful, it's so fresh, as if just collected from the hives. But it's a shame that this freshness doesn't last until the end. In the base, you just hear a floral bouquet, light sweetness, and fruits. It lacks depth!!
2/5

The opening is simply gorgeous - honeycombs, absolutely. But then it turns into typical DKNY, just like all the others, fruity-floral, nothing new. The honey aspect is cool, sure, but then it still becomes commonplace. Disappointing, to be honest
5/5

Wearing it now, but it's just awful. It doesn't highlight spring at all, it just irritates. The scent is somehow cloying, as if bees have landed on me. No pleasure, just discomfort. The bottle is beautiful, of course, but that doesn't save the situation 😒
4/5

Spring flowers are clearly felt here, and the fruitiness is so bright it's simply captivating. Linden honey, though liquid, adds an interesting touch. There's something in this scent that lifts the mood and fills you with optimism 🌸
3/5

The bottle is simply stunning, and the scent is quite interesting. The fruity sweetness is delightful, and a light honey accent adds charm. But the floral notes aren't impressive; they seem a bit bitter and too artificial, even though they appear light
4/5
4
The scent is simply terrible, no orange mood at all. The brightness here is only in words, but in reality, it's mandarin with some cloying plum that just presses on your brain. The notes that should be sunny actually only cause irritation. This perfume doesn't touch you, but rather repels. Tenderness? Oh come on, it's just warm nonsense that leaves no impression whatsoever
4/5

The scent reminds me of honeyed flowers, as well as ripe fruits with a slight hint of vanilla. It's a really pleasant luxury perfume, sweetish but with a touch of sourness, which makes it interesting )
4/5

First, you feel an incredibly sweet floral honey, simply magical! 🌼 Then the freshness of herbs is added, a little bitter, but very pleasant, like linden and honey flowers. This directly associates with a carefree summer vacation! ☀️
5/5

This fragrance is simply mesmerizing! I can't get enough of its scent, it brings true pleasure. When I studied its notes, I understood why I like it so much. Citrus is my weakness, and I also read that there's lily of the valley in the heart of the fragrance, which I adore. That's how I became the happy owner of this wonderful bottle with a bee on the cap. Definitely recommend it!
