by Nest
Wild Poppy by Nest is a bright, juicy fruity floral that feels youthful and carefree, delivering a light, airy scent ideal for spring and summer. It opens with a tart, zippy burst of pear, raspberry, and apricot, layered over a soft rose and jasmine base, creating an immediately approachable and pleasantly sweet aroma. The dry-down is clean and slightly feminine, with the fruit notes fading into a warm floral-honeyed base, leaving behind a faint, soft trail. While some find the projection moderate and longevity moderate to average—lasting around 6 hours on most skin types—many note it’s best worn in warm weather, ideally as a day-time scent. Its soft, inoffensive profile makes it well-suited for office wear or casual outings, with many describing it as safe, crowd-pleasing, and ideal for lovers of light, sweet florals. However, the scent can feel synthetic or overly sweet to some, with strong reactions ranging from delight to intense dislike, particularly among those sensitive to intensely fruity or “candy-like” perfumes. A few find it lacks depth or complexity and compare it to mass-market body sprays or candle scents, while others praise its freshness and ease of wear.
