All I can say is I have never gotten so many compliments on my fragrance. Even the receptionist at my doctor needed to know what I was wearing. I am not one for fruit based scents but this potion just works!

This is my favorite Jo Malone so far! It smells so real and juicy-- a little bit tangy, even. It is definitely mouth-watering without being sweet, and definitely NOT "syrupy" as most peach/apricot scents tend to be. Yet it is very rich. Smells just like peach nectar. Maybe there is some citrus and green notes thrown in. A mint leaf, perhaps?? The honey is not very noticable to my nose--and my nose is very sensitive to honey. Beautiful for summer!

FYI, this is more "real" and less sweet-smelling than i Profumi di Firenze's Florentia 22 (peach and flowers), which is beautiful, if not a little bit watery and flat in comparison.

I read the previous reviews and I was so excited about smelling this at the Jo Malone boutique that when I sprayed it on my wrist and I smelled cheap clogging peachy room spray I almost fainted. I SWEAR.
No honey, no nectarine, no peach sorbet, just the most revolting synthetic peach I have ever smelled. *sigh*

Jo's newest fragrance, Nectarine Blossom and Honey, is already on the market in the US...you just have to know where to shop. If you like sweet fragrances...this is for you. I personally found it very boring and a little too sweet for my taste. I prefer Jo's Orange Blossom or French Lime Blossom.

My roommate works for Estee Lauder and got an early preview of this fragrance and I must say...it is DIVINE! I didn't think it was possible to surpass the sumptuousness of Orange Blossom, but this Nectarine & Honey achieves it! I wore the lotion to work one day and got 6 COMMENTS on how lovely I smelled. The best part about this fragrance is the clean, light, slightly sweet scent that lingers on your body without being overpowering or offensive.
An absolute steal at $75 for the lotion and $110+ for the fragrance b/c it will last quite a while due to the large size of the bottle and will give you a reputation for smelling wonderful.

Hi, I am a Londoner. I recently went to the Jo Malone shop and bought a bottle of this for myself. The first day I wore it to the office, I had two compliments. It's a lovely, subtle scent but it lingers on all day. I don't normally go for "fruity" fragrances, but for some reason this is very soft and grown-up and I love it. Highly recommended.

What a lovely scent, not as sweet as I expected from reading the other reviews. This scent is in no way "juicy sweet" as in a tempered sweetness mixed with fruit. A perfect combination and makes me think of a skin care type of scent, absolutely great and worth the full bottle I purchased.

I purchased this DUTY FREE at Heathrow Terminal 3! £24.00 for a 30 ml bottle.

When I spritzed it on, the aroma of peaches wafted up. Not unpleasant, but just the scent of peaches. After about 45 minutes, the peach scent dried down to a nice, soft fragrance. Now, almost 10 hours later, the fragrance is still there if I sniff my wrist. Very light, but there.
This is the perfect fragrance to wear in the office, or if you want a nice scent that doesn't arrive into the room before you do, or stay for hours after you leave.

This is one of my favourite JM fragrances.

I bought this scent on my trip to London recently and I've been wearing it ever since. The notes are in the other review, so I won't repeat them here.

Bascially, when I put this cologne on, I don't notice the individual notes so much. There is fruitness, and there is also a honeyed sweetness to the scent, but it stays pleasantly light and never overpowers. On me(I have oily skin), 2 spritzes of scent lasts all day. This fragrance makes me smile because I just feel like I'm wearing summer all around me.

This is the newest addition to Jo Malone's collection. It is for those who like sweet, fruity fragrances, which I do. According to jomalone.co.uk, this is " A youthful and fruity fragrance which was inspired by the delicious scent of just-ripening nectarines and a taste of refreshing peach sorbet. Mouth-watering nectarine and peach with hints of plum, blackcurrant and vetiver are combined with the sweet warmth of acacia honey in this truly seductive combination".
To my unsophisticated nose, I definitely smelled the peach & nectarine most, maybe a dash of plum, blackcurrent & some vetiver. It was about 2.5 hrs before the top notes really started to recede. By 6 hrs it seemed almost completely gone. And yet, I detected it ever so slightly clinging to my wrists this morning. All in all I thought it had pretty good staying power on me. I didn't detect the honey per se, just a softening of the fruity notes. This is definitely a yummy one. Not sure I will repurchase as there are so many summery fruit fragrances to try.
