Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L'Eau d'Issey Pure Nectar de Parfum EDP
A luminous, dewy rose wrapped in nectar and honey - modern, romantic and quietly sensual, this is a fresh floral done with real character and softness. Perfect for springtime optimism or dreamy, radiant dates.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Clear Honey EDP
Perfume Parlour's Clear Honey chases Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Pure Nectar - the honeyed pear and creamy rose are recognisable, but this dupe pushes the sweetness flatter and loses the dewy, grown-up elegance that made the original's jammy rose feel refined.

Season and Occasion Fit

L'Eau d'Issey Pure Nectar de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

The honeyed rose and aquatic notes make this shine in spring and summer, offering freshness with a lush sweetness. Its fruit and floral heart is less suited for winter's depth but works beautifully in mild, blossoming weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual

Its moderate projection and inviting, romantic sweetness make it ideal for dates or daytime wear. The clean aquatic undertone suits office and casual settings, while the honeyed, floral richness is less formal and not designed for gym or sport.

Clear Honey

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

The dewy honeyed rose, pear and watery freshness feel brightest in spring and summer, carrying into autumn before the cold mutes it.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Elegant, sweet and refined - well suited to dates, the office and daily wear, with enough polish for a dressier occasion; too soft for sport.
