Bee
Bee by Ellis Brooklyn is an unisex eau de parfum in the designer price tier. It opens with rum and davana, moves into honey and cinnamon and dries down to sandalwood, vanilla and cocoa. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Rum Boozy, sweet and warm. Adds a grown-up edge to gourmands.
- Davana Odd and gorgeous — apricot jam, rum and dried herbs at once.
Heart
- Honey Sweet, waxy and slightly animalic. Can smell dirty in large doses.
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Cocoa Dry, dusty chocolate. Bitter rather than sweet.
