A Jar of Honey
When it comes to gourmands, I am much more enthusiastic about wearing something that smells like honey rather than cotton candy. I've been searching for a realistic honey scent for quite some time. I did enjoy Serge Lutens Miel de Bois, but it wasn't what I wanted. Since finding Honey I Washed The Kids, I believe I may have found the closest to what I was looking for.
Honey I Washed The Kids is a fairly linear scent, with syrupy honey, sugary vanilla and gooey caramel. It smells delicious and foody, just like a gourmand should be.
The opening is where the honey note is at its strongest. I was amazed by how realistic it smelt on my skin. It was just like sticking your nose in a jar of honey and inhaling. Although the honey note is dominant throughout this composition, it does tend to lessen in intensity. The heart and drydown introduces the vanilla and caramel which helps in balancing out the fragrance.
As far as I'm aware, Honey I Washed The Kids was a limited edition that has long since been discontinued. The last time I inquired about this fragrance in a Lush store, I was re-directed to a shower gel named It's Raining Men and told that it's the same scent, just re-named.
I was lucky enough to be sent a sample from a kind Lush fragrance collector. Since falling for it, I guess I'll now have to join the ranks of fans waiting for a bottle to appear on Ebay.
