EMES #220 Honey Potion and the Story Behind the Fragrance
EMES #220 Honey Potion is an oil-based perfume from the American niche brand EMES, released in 2017.
The EMES perfume house was founded in the United States in 2013 and builds its aesthetic around purity of concept, expressive formulas and numbered fragrances, with the composition itself taking center stage.
The name Honey Potion immediately sets the mood: this is a soft, alluring and gourmand fragrance in which the sweetness of honey meets a radiant white-floral facet.
The release belongs to the floral and sweet fragrance families, while its unisex positioning makes the composition appealing to both women and men.
Notes and the Character of the Composition
Only two notes are listed at the heart of the perfume: gardenia and honey.
This minimalist composition allows EMES #220 Honey Potion to be experienced as a unified olfactory image rather than as a complex, multi-layered pyramid with numerous nuances.
Gardenia creates a white-floral accent, adding creamy softness, floral expressiveness and a subtle sense of polished elegance to the composition.
Honey, in turn, brings warm sweetness and depth, making the fragrance rounder, cozier and more noticeable.
Development and Sillage
On the skin, EMES #220 Honey Potion comes across as a rich honeyed-floral accord in which the sweet side gradually blends with white flowers.
Thanks to its oil-based concentration, the fragrance stays close to the skin while still having a very powerful sillage, making its presence noticeable to those around you.
This is not a fragrance to apply without restraint.
No recommended dosage is specified in the database, so it is best to start with a minimal amount and assess how it develops on your own skin, especially indoors and in warm weather.
When to Wear Honey Potion
Its honeyed-floral character feels especially natural in the cooler seasons, in the evening and in situations suited to expressive, sensual compositions.
The fragrance can also be beautiful in summer, but in high temperatures its sweetness and very powerful sillage may come across as more intense than expected.
EMES #220 Honey Potion will appeal to those who enjoy noticeable white-floral fragrances, warm sweet accords and an unusual presentation of oil perfumes.
It is a choice for a confident image, when you want to leave behind a distinctive, softly seductive impression.
