Pure Honey KKW Fragrance 2013

The drugstores have been selling two different refill soaps in the scents of sea breeze and milk-honey for decades. Now, let’s imagine that dear Kim Kardashian one day unknowingly strolls into a DM store just to wash her hands. She reaches for the milk-honey variant. If one doesn’t skimp on lifestyle, then certainly not on hand soap. Once home, she washes her hands with the new liquid soap. And lo and behold, Kim is absolutely delighted by the honey scent. Shortly thereafter, she calls her mother Kris and announces that a perfume with exactly this scent is to be launched.

If this were indeed the origin story, it would be a tribute to the German drugstores. To this fragrance creation, I say: hats off! A sweet bottle with exactly this liquid soap scent has been achieved. At first, the scent is very floral and somewhat zesty, but soon it transforms into a distinct honey scent. However, although many claim it to be an authentic honey scent, I must disagree. It is a very floral, soapy mixture. The honey is indeed clear and recognizable, but it is not sweet and resinous. To me, it even has a slightly hairspray-like smell. Overall, the scent is by no means bad. Especially for those who are fans of the milk-honey soap, this perfume is a safe bet. Lastly, it should be noted that the longevity of the perfume is also good.
