Double Fold For Women

Double Fold opens on a crisp, juicy pear that reads sweeter and a touch more candied than the nashi-pear shimmer of the original. The heart is a soft, feminine bouquet led by a prominent peony with a sweet pea lift, while a whisper of indole keeps it from going fully sugary. As it settles, white musk, a light patchouli, vanilla absolute and cedar form a clean, cosy drydown. Compared to Issey Miyake Pleats Please, this Perfume Parlour interpretation runs a little flatter and more linear - the refined patchouli-and-vanilla depth that gave the original its staying power is dialled back, so the wear is brighter and simpler but doesn't cling as long. It's a cheerful, easy spring-and-summer floral for casual days, with enough sweetness to carry into a relaxed date.
