Pleats Please Issey Miyake 2013 Eau de Parfum

Today, before heading to puppy school, I spritzed Pleats Please EDP with a smile, as it reminded me of a situation that occurred when my mom's poodle Samson was still in his baby shoes.

My aunt and I had comfortably settled at the coffee table - Samson seemingly well-behaved at our feet.
My aunt was wearing one of her obligatory, calf-length Burberry pleated skirts, and we were chatting animatedly.
There was so much to talk about - and the little poodle didn’t make a peep.
When my aunt stood up, we saw the aftermath!
Samson had reverently chewed on the hem of her skirt, leaving it limp and wet - without a single pleat.
You couldn't have pressed it better with an iron.
My mother exclaimed excitedly: Where are the wrinkles? and my aunt replied amusedly: I still have plenty of those - on my face!
We all had to laugh - and the little poodle wagged his tail joyfully.
Good thing my aunt wasn't a stickler for details.

And the fragrance also exudes good cheer.
It is full and soft, and doesn’t evoke sharp wrinkles at all - rather a swaying bell skirt.

The violet enters confidently, and not at all modestly, as it is often said, giving the fragrance a cheerfully romantic touch.
The peony is elegant and the sweet pea is enchantingly persistent.
A stroll in a bell skirt through the blooming garden.

Patchouli adds warmth and depth - and the delicately sweet vanilla makes Pleats Please cuddly.

A soft, inviting scent, which matches the violet blue of the bottle well.
Only accurate wrinkles, I can't imagine with it.
Our Samson probably can’t either - otherwise he wouldn’t have redesigned my aunt's strict skirt.
