Pancakes and chicken marinade are not the only things honey is useful for. Thanks to science, we can now smell like it too. No honey perfume will smell solely like honey, or have you thinking honey is the only essence in the bottle, you would always get a youthful blend of other notes. Honey perfume is made in so many different ways, some with more honey than others, but one thing is for sure, when you put it to your nose, you would say “this is sweet”. Honey perfume is not sweet in the manner that cotton candy perfume is, it has powdery and animallic nuances that still manage to distinguish it from other gourmand notes.
