The Marc Jacobs vinyl-accented juggernaut continues with Honey, a sort-of flanker to 2012′s Marc Jacobs Dot, which of course followed Lola and Daisy and all of their flankers. More specifically, Honey “channels the eclectic appeal of Marc’s Dot signature and adds her own golden touch”.
If you’ve liked what they’ve done with the bunch so far, you’ll probably like Honey too. Like the rest, it’s basically a cheerful and wearable fragrance. To my mind, Daisy was the most cheerful and most wearable of them all, and while Honey isn’t going to knock Daisy off her pedestal, it’s arguably less threatening than Lola or Dot — not that either Lola or Dot was particularly threatening.
Honey starts a bit crisp, but it’s sweet from the start, with lots of pear shampoo and with what they’re calling, in a rare case of truth in advertising, “fruity punch”…
