Light honey floral
Mellifera is the polar opposite of Tituba, the other popular honey scent in the Sixteen92 line-up. Whereas Tituba is a waxy, thick honey-amber, Mellifera is a light floral honey as clear as spring water. Mellifera is for fans of a true, linear honey note – simple, uncluttered, and admirably direct. It doesn’t pretend to be anything other than pretty. The scent’s floral touches are abstract watercolor versions of flowers rather than thick, oily explosions of color and density – they lend a faintly green, powdery texture, ensuring that it remains sparkling and buoyant. For something this delicate, however, Mellifera is remarkably durable, outlasting even a shower. I would recommend Mellifera to someone looking for a lightly floral honey note that is not weighed down by the usual accoutrements of beeswax, tobacco, spice, or amber.
