Radiant Nectar

I agree with @JoanThreatt's thoughts on this scent. I also sampled it and fell in love with the floral sweetness. I purchased the big bottle today, and all I get is a very strong musk and woodsy notes. I waited for the drydown and yet I don't get the fruity elements I experienced from the sampler. All I could think of is cigarettes and I hate when scents give off smoky vibes. This is so disappointing. I should've got Sparkling Sugar (and noooo they don't smell the same as opposed to the "This perfume reminds me" section above. :/ This is more like Glossier You's older sister.

Gorgeous pear fragrance, opens as a sweet juicy pear and dries down slightly less sweet. Longevity is pretty impressive for the price, around 5 hours.

almost a 1:1 perfect dupe of studied by liis. definitely a tad sweeter than studied, and there’s a bit more of a rich quality that lets the pear poke through more intensely with radiant nectar. to my nose they are pretty much identical, radiant nectar just has better sillage and has a more synthetic and artificial dry down. still amazing and really beautiful. i’ve also heard from multiple people that this has a tendency to go rancid, which is disappointing. for the scent itself, i love this. i wouldn’t choose it over liis, but it’s a great option for people who want something more affordable with the same scent profile

Radiant Nectar is a complex, sticky, syrupy scent. I enjoy it paired with a Le Labo "Another 13" dupe (ALT's "Simply Another"), which has a clean unisex moss/musk/pear profile. The sticky pear in Radiant Nectar helps pull things towards the feminine (I also love adding Le Monde Gourmand's "Fleur de Blonde" for even more feminine soapy pear sweetness, or Ariana Grande's "Sweet Like Candy" for a whipped cream/pear/blackberry treat). I don't think I would ever wear Radiant Nectar entirely on it's own, but I appreciate it for its complexity and layering potential.

I loved this when I had it in a sample size, but for some reason, the full size smells a little different. In the sample, it was light, peachy, and floral, and I was totally addicted. After getting the full size, the musk is more noticeable, and I get this overwhelming, sweet honey note, which some people would probably like, but I don't like sugary smells, so I was disappointed. Less intense after the dry down, but still not what I was hoping for when I bought it.

I love so many notes that are in this perfume., pear, orris, musk, ambrete and also I adore cedar but for whatever reason I can’t get on board with it. It smells like raisins and I don’t want to smell like that, kinda sweet and vegetal, not sure what causes it but this is a hard pass from me, it’s a same because it’s a good performer for a really reasonable price. Longevity- 4/6hours Projections- arms length Scent profile - 3/10 Purchase- No

I used to HATE this but I've come around to it now. it smells exactly like Arianna Grande's God is a Woman. It's like pears poached in a black tea and brown sugar syrup that got left on the stove a little to long and it's started to burn a bit. I also get heavy wood furniture and unsmoked cigarettes. When I first got it that burnt aspect was really gross to me, it made me think of an ashtray. This along with God is a Women have been an acquired taste for me for sure. I find it very interesting and comforting now. I also don't know if this smmmes like a summer fragrance I'm wearing it today in late May and it feels a little heavy and to "warm", I'm thinking it will be going away for the summer and coming out again in late October.

nice sweetness that isn't overpowering however, it doesn't strike me as a summer fragrance as it is pretty heavy and missing an airy feeling 6.5/10

Warm weather heaven!

This smells so sweet and inviting. I get peaches and a little bit of musk. Would be perfect for causal a walk in the park during spring or an outside waterfront bar in the summer. It isn't overwhelming and settles well. I hope it doesn't go bad :(

At first: lovely light fruity scent for the summer, I'm going to wear this every day! After a few months: rancid liquifying bowl of fruit with flies buzzing around it

I got this as a cheaper alternative to Liis studied. It smells almost identical. Clean skin scent and I love the carrot seed.

Like a fresher version of glossier you! I like it a lot. Only have a small sample, so hopefully won’t have time to go rancid like other reviewers mention.

Oh did I enjoy this perfume… till it went rancid yuck 🤮

I wanted something similar to GIAW so badly, but this is another fail for me. It's vaguely reminiscent of it, but in Radiant Nectar I'm mainly smelling honey, pear, and musk. The honey note is so heavy that it is almost nauseating, and not very "clean" in my opinion. I think the performance is decent, but this is just not my favorite. I wish it had a fresher and more juicy pear note but it doesn't sadly. If you want something that leans more gourmand for the warmer months maybe this one's for you.

I am a huge fan of Clean Reserve perfumes. Radiant nectar is a beautiful scent and I appreciate the opening notes. However, there is a underlying smokey note that smells like cigarettes that the perfume would be much better off without. The top notes are very bubbly and peachy and I wish they would reformulate without the tobacco scent.

I really like the scent, too bad it lasts less than a fart. This didn’t even last for 10 minutes on my skin. Longevity aside, it’s a very pretty, delicate perfume. I get a little bit of pear, a little honey, a bit of a floral note too. Would definitely get a full bottle if I could actually smell it.

Wow these reviews are so far from what I expected. Of course this is no niche fragrance, but it is a nice, sheer scent that is sweet, fruity, and fresh. It smells like pear and peach with a clean musk in the background.

I think the worst version of this scent that I've smelled. I kind of think it might be a little off? But that's still a con of this fragrance, because I'm testing from an official sample in the discovery set, and none of the other samples smell off like this one. So you also shouldn't buy this because it won't smell nice for very long. It smells okay in the drydown, typical pear ambrette musk. It's okay, but the foul off/vomit opening is really disgusting.

The most disgusting perfume I’ve ever smelled.

a nice syrupy pear. earthy and kind of gourmand. reminds me of prune juice.

I love, love, love this from the Clean reserve line! I do not smell pear or tobacco in this at all. Rather, it is similar to a nostalgic burnt sugar syrup tapioca pearl and soy dessert (“taho” is what it’s called). The emotional and childhood connection made me like this perfume so much. I feel super good when I wear it.

I'm really glad to have this in my collection. It's a lovely, sweet pear perfume and I find it's great for layering. I love to use it with Chanel's 1932, which sweetens it up a bit. By itself, I find 1932 a bit too screechy, but Radiant Nectar rounds out the edges. I also love to layer it with Dior's Jasmin des Anges because it increases its longevity and rounds out the indolic character of the jasmine. I never wear it by itself, but it's such a useful addition in my fragrance wardrobe! I would probably repurchase this.

I love how people are describing the scent here, but i only get pear in the beginning and then it disappears.

I adore this perfume. Don’t let the Ambroxan turn you off, it’s not huge here. I dislike strong Ambroxan and have zero issues with this fragrance. This is tobacco leaf (an unsmoked cigar, if you will), and honey to my nose. It has sweetness but isn’t gourmand. It’s a woman putting on her man’s jacket after a night at a smoky bar. Very intimate smelling. I have the full bottle after getting a sample of this. I don’t reach for it all the time, but when I do, it’s sooooo lovely. Definitely a fall/winter scent! Gives no headaches, well blended, pretty unisex perfume.

Super sweet opening, but give it time. Juicy pear with a side of golden honeycomb. The dry-down is raisins. Some compare it to Thai milk tea and I smell it too.

This scent is almost identical to Studied, by Liis. If you like one, you will like the other. If you have one, you don't need the other. Only pear is listed in the notes, but the opening is very fruity, and smells more like peach to my nose.

Smells nice citrusy and fruity. Clean. My husband is OBSESSED with it. He will place his nose on my neck and just sniff it. Weird I know, feels great tho. Not strong, needs several sprays, will not last long.

The loose tobacco you buy at the smoke shops. I love most Clean fragrances but this one is not for me.

Weak Sauce 🥱 They should label this as 'hair mist' strength. Just like their labeling, this perfume is practically invisible. I briefly caught a beautiful fruit wood sap scent but it was gone in moments. Very disappoint, much sad. 😔 It takes several sprays all over to wear this for longer than half an hour & will only stick to natural fabrics like cotton, wool, etc. Don't get me wrong! This scent (when you can actually smell it) is beautiful & delicate & a well built formula. The full size bottle is relatively inexpensive but I highly recommend Skin over Radiant Nectar all day. 3/10 Quality ingredients, nonexistent sillage.
