Our verdict on Pleats Please: Favourite

Pleats Please is a divisive little number - a playful, sweet floral that gets some people feeling like flower fairies, and others scrubbing off a cloying, 'bathroom cleanser' vibe. Definitely don't blind buy this one.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate sillage and often-praised "clean" aspect make it suitable for casual wear or even the office if applied sparingly. However, its potent sweetness and the strong floral-fruity character might be too casual for formal events and a bit much for active sports.

About

Imagine biting into a juicy, crisp pear in a blooming peony garden, then a subtle, clean musk and a hint of vanilla emerge, grounding the flirty florals. It’s sweet, fresh, and undeniably bright, with an indolic edge that keeps it from being too innocent. A touch of patchouli adds an earthy but not heavy depth, making for a luminous, slightly powdery finish.
