pretty but fleeting

This has become one of my favorite scents for the summer. For some reason, nectarine did not click in my head that it was a kind of fruit--I just thought it was a flower. But now that I know, I do remember eating nectarines when I was younger, and the taste is like the smell of this. This is tart, lightly sweet, and a little bit of green. I don't think it's fruity floral gourmand, but it is more like a fruity green (like Nina Ricci's Liberty Fizz or Acqua di Gioia). Lasting power is not very good on me, maybe 3 hours at most. However for a light fragrance, that's not bad.

Just Add Nutmeg

Jo Malone's NECTARINE BLOSSOM AND HONEY is sweet peachy flesh, fragrant and abuzz. It's pretty close to the skin, but in the case of this fragrance, that's a good thing--otherwise, you smell like teenager wearing body spray. The longevity, for a cologne, is actually quite good, too.

The only thing I'd say is that if you're looking for a peachy sweet scent that's still alive in the dry down, here it is, BUT, I'd still suggest layering this scent with something else to cut the straightforward stickiness. It needs nutmeg or spice, or bourbon. Something boozy or warm to offset the nectar.

A fruity but short pleasure

I've just tested this fragrance at my fovourite drugstore and I found it very pleasant, sweet and fruity, really delicious and perfect as summer scent.
The nectarine is noticeable and well mixed with the other fruity notes and the honey touch.
Unfortunately, considering the high price of Jo Malone's creations, isn't neither intense nor longlasting and after a few hours you need to spray it again. Very elegant the bottle.

Reminds me of a dry white wine

I’ve smelled lots of Jo Malone’s because my mama used to (back when I was a teenager) and still wears them a lot. I’m not sure if she’s ever tried this one, but I’ll have to have her try this one out.

Nectarine Blossom & Honey has absolutely no honey in it, but maintains a subtle sweetness from opening to its dry down. It opens with a blast of green notes and syrupy black currant, which contributes to both the sweet fruitiness of this scent AND the greenness. It’s very lovely and doesn’t come off screechy at all. After a couple of minutes, the peach and nectarine come in and add this juicy, yummy, fruity fragrance, and mix with the green accords. It smells like the skin of a semi-ripe nectarine / peach hybrid, and the plum and vetiver add this sweet, aromatic wine-like touch to the scent. It’s a very grown up way to do a fruity scent and I think that’s why I like it so much. I don’t come across black locust much in scents, so I wouldn’t be able to tell if I’m picking it up or not.

I agree with the notion that it smells like a wine, but it smells like a semi-sweet white wine, like a Pinot Grigio or a sangria that’s been mixed with something to lessen the sweetness. It’s so so beautiful and it wears like a dream. It’s light, but has a presence and is so easy to wear alone or match with other scents. Perfect for the spring and summer days and for almost any occasion.

Jo Malone scents are notorious for their bad performance, but at the end of the day, they are colognes and not EDPs or Parfums/Extraits. Intimate to moderate projection and moderate longevity. If you are looking for a more grown up and mature fruity fragrance, try this one out.

A delightful sensory experience

This fragrance has an effect on me that is almost euphoric. It was unexpected. The notes are very much up my alley, but in general Jo Malone’s style (the perfumer and the brand) don’t align with mine…but this is different. It’s soft, sweet, joyous, bright, fresh and feminine without being floral or chypre /citrusy. And the longevity on it is honestly quite surprising, especially for the house and the fact that it’s a cologne. This lasts for a solid 8 hours on me on skin and I can smell it all throughout this time, bringing me more joy with each whiff.

A favorite that will forever be in my collection. I highly recommend it!

Fruity-fresh "shampoo" profile but in a very natural/non-synthetic/understated way. Neutral, a bit green - like underripe pear skin.

This is too fruity/sweet for me. It really does smell like nectarine blossom, but it’s giving bath & body works

A little fresh, a little sweet, a little fruity - not too sticky or jammy like many fruity notes can be. Safe, not intriguing at all.
