English Honeysuckle

English Honeysuckle, released by the British house Yardley in 2022 for women, combines spicy, green and musky accords in equal measure, with sweet, floral and citrus touches at half strength.

Bergamot opens with a clean citrus brightness, sharpened by black pepper for a dry, lively spice that is unusual in a honeysuckle scent. Honeysuckle then comes forward, nectar-sweet and slightly green, joined by jasmine for creamy warmth and heliotrope for a soft, powdery, almond-like sweetness. The base is green and earthy, with oakmoss and moss giving a damp, garden-like depth, patchouli an earthy warmth and musk a clean, soft finish.

The overall impression is of an English garden in bloom, with a peppery, mossy twist that keeps it from feeling too sweet. It suits spring and summer, daytime and relaxed occasions, and should appeal to anyone who likes honeyed florals with a fresh, green edge.
