Nectar
by Commodity
Nectar by Commodity is a radiant, heady white floral fragrance with a fresh, citrus-tart opening of bergamot and pomelo, followed by a lush, honeyed blend of orange blossom, neroli, and honeysuckle. It evokes an authentic, naturalistic floral experience—reminiscent of jasmine green tea, a field of honeysuckle, or a sun-drenched Mediterranean beach—delivering a crisp, zingy, and slightly bitter opening that softens into a powdery, musky, softly sweet drydown. The scent is most effective in spring and summer, admired for its strong projection and ability to layer well, especially with sweeter, drier, or spicier scents. While some find it synthetic or overly intense, others rave over its naturalistic quality and elegant balance between freshness and sweetness. Yet, it has moderate longevity and strong sillage, which may overwhelm sensitive noses or those seeking subtlety.
