They sent me a sample which I tested. At first, by magic, it smells of roses despite not having them listed; since I’m not much of a floral person, I thought it wouldn’t work for me. But within minutes, everything changes: that note fades, leaving a deep, sweet, and sensual fragrance. I loved it so much that I already bought the bottle and use it daily. It’s elegant, feminine, intense, and lasts a long time on my skin.
Today I was gifted a sample, and while I didn’t fall in love completely, it doesn’t smell like anything either. It’s very oriental, bringing me memories of Kenzo Flower Oriental.
Sweet and intense floral, it has an air of Elie Saab’s perfume, equally potent with floral touches, though perhaps this one has more vanilla-like sweetness.
It’s very long-lasting, but I have issues with the scent; those sweet notes seem penetrating, cloying, or spicy. I bought it because I liked the top notes when testing it, but I didn’t analyze the dry-down and I think I rushed. It’s not bad, just that I opt for fresh and soft aromas, and this isn’t the right one for me.
This perfume is very long-lasting, but I have problems with its scent. Those sweet notes seem penetrating and somewhat cloying or spicy to me. I bought it because when they showed it to me I liked the top notes, but I didn’t analyze the base notes; I think I rushed a bit and I barely tolerate it. I must clarify that it’s not bad, just that I opt for fresh and soft scents and this is not the one for me.
I love how the pear and peony blend to give this fragrance a magical touch. It’s super luminous, cheerful, and fun, yet it also has a sexy vibe. The longevity is just right.
Pleats Please is a lovely, charming perfume, perfect for spring. It’s not overpowering or suffocating; a great all-rounder for the next season. The moment I smelled it, I saw myself wearing it, which is unusual for a simple, fresh floral-fruit fragrance. It has a synthetic air that, however, pleases without leaving a bad taste; it smells like Suavitel or non-irritating detergent, like you’re wearing something freshly laundered. The indole contributes to this. I don’t love it, but I like it; it’s comfortable for days when you don’t know what to wear, without that feeling of laziness, but rather it brightens your day. 7/10.
I think the pear and peony blend is what gives it that charming touch. It’s luminous, cheerful, and fun, yet also sexy. Perfect longevity.
Pleats Please is a lovely and charming perfume, ideal for spring. It’s not heavy or suffocating; a perfect all-rounder for the season. Since I smelled it, I saw myself wearing it, which is strange because its fresh floral-fruit composition wasn’t what I expected from myself. To me, it smells synthetic, but well-made; it recalls sweet pea and pear, but not natural, rather like a pleasant detergent, nothing scratchy or plastic. It’s like wearing something freshly laundered. It doesn’t enchant me, but I like it: it’s comfortable for days when you don’t know what to wear, without that feeling of laziness, but rather it brightens your day. 7/10.
Comfortable and youthful scent, a sweet floral-fruit blend with a tart edge. Good sillage and medium longevity. Reminds me of a flanker to Estée Lauder’s Pleasures and a laundry fabric softener; the pear, sweet pea, and indole smell like freesia, bergamot, and rose, crossed with vanilla, patchouli, and a soft musk. It’s not that I dislike it, it just doesn’t speak to me—it’s sadly more of the same. Ideal for a dynamic woman in informal outdoor activities under the sun.
One of the most beautiful bottles I’ve seen in a long time holds one of the most unbearable scents for my nose. It’s a shame because Issey Miyake has been consistent since his fashion beginnings. I’d love to like it; the bottle, with its pale pink and white, references Miyake’s pleats and is gorgeous, very youthful and flirtatious. It could be from Cacharel, so creative with this. Maybe my sense of smell is atrophied, but I remember it as a mix of Giorgio Armani’s Si and Viva la Juicy. Something fresh, floral, fruity, and sugary… a freshness that gives me nausea, nothing elegant or mysterious. I understand others enjoy it—I’m amazed it’s like that. But while others find something delicious, I only encounter a garish freshness that repels me. Plus, it seems it’ll be discontinued soon; it’s been on the market for two years and is already very cheap. If I were a user of ‘Please, Pleats,’ I’d gradually move on to other bottles.
One of the most beautiful bottles I’ve seen in a long time contains one of the most unbearable perfumes for my nose. It’s a pity, because if Issey Miyake has been consistent since starting in fashion. I would love to like it; the bottle reminds me of Miyake’s pleats and is gorgeous, with that combination of pale pink and white so youthful and coquettish (I think I hate that word). It could be a Cacharel bottle, so creative and youthful. I must have a blunted sense of smell for what I don’t like, but I remember it as something in the style of Si by Giorgio Armani with a bit of Viva la Juicy. Something fresh, floral, fruity, and sugary… A freshness that is nauseating for me, nothing elegant or woody. I understand that others like it and I marvel that it is so. But where others see something delicious, I only find a messy freshness that repels me. By the way, it seems it will be discontinued soon, I haven’t seen it in two years and the perfume isn’t even four years old and it’s already very cheap. If I were a user of ‘Please, Pleats’ (what a name), I would start buying a few bottles gradually.
I’d heard about this perfume and recently checked it out; I have nothing bad to say about the scent itself—it’s feminine, light, and daytime-appropriate. I detect floral notes, perhaps bitter orange blossom or honey stands out. Could it be a blatant copy of Elie Saab Le Parfum? Should I even review products that mimic another fragrance by 99% and ride on someone else’s innovation? There are levels to this. If a perfume is to be hated or loved, let it be for its original formulation. Some brands make cheap perfumes by copying trends under the guise of ‘supporting the economy,’ but no one likes it when they copy your work. Why would a recognized design brand in decline do this?
I had heard about this perfume but recently had the opportunity to smell it and I have nothing bad to say about the aroma, it’s feminine, light, and daytime. I perceive the floral notes and maybe the orange blossom is very noticeable, maybe the honey too, maybe it’s a blatant copy of Elie Saab Le Parfum… maybe I don’t like reviewing products that practically imitate another by 99%… maybe it’s unpleasant to gain fame from someone else’s ingenuity. Similar perfumes will always exist, but there are levels… if you understand my message you can see my review of Elie Saab for a more detailed perception. If a perfume is to be hated, let it be for its original formulation; if it is to be loved, let it be for its original formulation. There are places that make cheap perfumes trying to equal the originals… they have all the raw materials to invent something new, risky, and horrible (still, there is an achievement for being an honest creation)… but they don’t; in fact, they ‘live’ by imitating the trendy perfume because consumers ask for copies. Matter of approach, but no one would sympathize if someone copied and commercialized the copy of their work, right?… Anyway, that’s what some houses do without serious commitment under the argument of ‘supporting the economy’. Why did a recognized design brand on the verge of improvement have to do this?
Very strong! However, when I smelled it in samples, magazine testers, etc., it seemed much more pleasant to me, that typical light feminine scent one wants to buy, and in fact I was going to. But I went into the perfumery, sprayed it on my skin, and the result was something else; it didn’t seem like cologne but alcohol with pepper, a fraud to me.
Wow! However, when I smelled it on samples or magazine testers, it seemed much more pleasant—a typical light, feminine scent that made me want to buy it. But when I went into the perfumery and sprayed it from the bottle, the result changed completely; it no longer smelled like cologne but rather alcohol with a peppery kick—a fraud to me.
I don’t like writing negative reviews, so apologies in advance to those who love it; in the end, I’m just reflecting my perception. Pleats Please left me completely indifferent, it didn’t convey anything to me, it didn’t seem interesting or pretty, let alone innovative. A roundabout disappointment. Upon application, the pear is very noticeable, but very synthetic for my taste to the point of overwhelming me. In the heart notes, the peony is the queen followed by sweet pea, and in the base I only smell a very light touch of wood; I couldn’t detect the other notes no matter how hard I searched. I don’t like how it sits on my skin; it smells like cheap, low-quality perfume. I can’t even speak well of its longevity and sillage because on me they are very short. It’s a floral fragrance with a sweet touch, suitable for daytime and spring, but for me it only leaves sorrows.
I don’t usually leave negative reviews, so sorry if fragrance lovers are offended, but this is just my take. Pleats Please left me completely indifferent; it conveyed nothing, didn’t seem interesting, pretty, or innovative—it was a total letdown. Upon application, the pear note is very prominent but feels overly synthetic and overwhelming. In the heart, the peony dominates followed by sweet pea, and in the dry down I only catch a very faint woody touch; I can’t detect the rest of the notes. On my skin, it smells cheap and low-quality. The longevity and sillage are very short. It’s floral and sweet, suitable for spring and daytime, but for me, it only brings disappointment.
I was gifted a sample of Pleats Please at Barcelona airport in 2012, right before its launch, but I gave it to my sister because it felt too intense for me. Later, with Kenzo Amour Kiss ‘n’ Fly, I started to tolerate that kind of fragrance. Now, seeing it on sale has tempted me again. It’s not for everyday wear, but ideal for parties—like an accessory that completes the look, unlike Kiss ‘n’ Fly, which is more casual. Although I’ve heard it’s the same as Elie Saab, to me it reminds me much more of Amarige, just less strident and with a more natural vanilla base compared to the woods in that other one.
PLEATS PLEASE is one of those perfumes you either love or fear. At first, it’s strong, like opening the fabric softener bottle for the first time, loaded with florals and an indolic scent that hits instantly. I tried it because it made me feel good, and the reception was great—even my husband liked it. It’s fresh, floral, and sweet all at once, making me feel freshly showered. I adore it in the heat; it reminds me of when my mother hung freshly washed sheets, smelling of flowers in the spring breeze. Recommend not buying it blindly; it’s not for everyone, and your mood is key to how you perceive it. ESTELA 9/10 LONGEVITY 9/10 SCENT 8/10
Pleats Please is one of those perfumes you either love or fear; at first, it smells strong, like opening the fabric softener bottle for the first time, and the indole makes us react instantly. I tested it because it made me feel good, and the acceptance was incredible, even my husband adored it. It’s fresh, floral, and sweet at the same time, making me feel freshly bathed. I love it in summer; it reminds me of when my mother aired freshly washed sheets with a floral scent on a breezy spring day. Don’t buy it blindly, it’s not for everyone, and your mood when wearing it makes the difference in how it’s perceived. SILLAGE 9/10, LONGEVITY 9/10, SCENT 8/10.
I never even glanced at this EDT until I found it and checked the notes. I absolutely loved it; the pear is perfect, neither too sweet nor too green, and it blends beautifully with the florals. On me, the pea and peony stand out with a base of musk, vanilla, and patchouli; the wood is less present. The longevity for an EDT is excellent and the projection is moderate, nothing invasive. It has a moment where it smells like talc, but then it fades. I wear it in spring, summer, and even into fall. It’s sweet but measured. The bottle is gorgeous (photos don’t do it justice) and the atomizer is luxurious, spraying amazingly. 💖
To me, it smells aggressively sweet and loud, like overripe pear dessert, vanilla, served in bowls of patchouli. The invasiveness drops after an hour as the pea, peony, and musk rise, softening the vanilla. It’s feminine and youthful, with powerful projection and lasts over 12 hours, perfect for spring. It’s not bad, but I don’t wear it outside because I’d feel like I’m impersonating someone else. Pleasant: 4/10 Interesting: 3/10 Versatile: 5/10 Original: 6/10
I’ve never been so bossy with my reviews, but I was surprised to read opinions here. I used Pleats Please at my wedding. Although it doesn’t represent me 100%, I chose it because it’s sweet, kind, reassuring, and vital. I know it’s subjective, but I wanted to do justice to this perfume after reading so much criticism. I’m glad I gave it such a special space and I think it deserves it.
Perfume taste is super subjective, just like pain or humor, so why not here? It caught me off guard and brought out a side of me I didn’t know I had. I’ve seen people apologizing before giving their opinion, which seems ridiculous; scent goes straight to the brain and hurts, but it should unite us nerds, not divide us. Sometimes we make weird associations and it’s delicate. I’ve deleted toxic comments so I don’t look like a Taliban, though I know I have my share. Some people review clones or know nothing, and that’s not an opinion, it’s nonsense. As for the bottle… the name is the ugliest in history and the logo has bad typography, I know because I’m a designer, but it’s Issey Miyake and it was for his pleated collection, so I’ll overlook it. I discovered it in 2024 and was blown away: the nerd who becomes social. The spray was magical. It’s not a note exam, it’s emotion. Suddenly, a cheerful, confident, and likable Ada emerged, my grunge, advocacy side but at peace. It reminds me of surfing, laughing with friends, hugging my boyfriend on the motorcycle, going out with minimal makeup and comfortable because I hate tight clothes. It’s freedom, sweetness, and security. I can’t take it off even though it’s discontinued. A floral? This one is. Hate it, because it’s my perfume.
Taste in perfume is super subjective, like fear or humor. I’m reflecting on this scent because it surprised me so much and helped me rediscover a hidden part of myself I had forgotten. I know some reviews can be annoying, but apologizing before giving an opinion is absurd; this perfume is powerful and goes straight to the brain. Sometimes we make strange associations with scents, and that’s delicate. I’ve deleted comments that made me feel like a perfume Taliban, though I admit I have my fair share of being a nerd. I try to convince myself that it shouldn’t offend me if someone doesn’t get my scents, but there are people who review without knowing the ingredients, basing themselves on clones or hearsay—that’s not an opinion, it’s stupidity. After all that, my experience with the perfume that has the ugliest name in history and a logo with questionable typography (I say this as a designer and as a person). Please, pleats… terrible. I ignore it because it’s Issey Miyake in honor of its avant-garde brown or black pleated haute couture collection. When I get 500€, I’ll buy one of those fairy-like avant-garde dresses. I discovered it in 2024 and was blown away; the nerd inside me becomes social and reaches out to try perfumes from the 2000s in tester format. The bottle looked weird to me, and I didn’t expect that magical spell from the first spray. Pardon me? What is this? Yes, it’s sweet flowers, but it’s not about identifying ingredients, it’s about sensations. Suddenly, a cheerful, nice, social, and confident Ada came out, a side that amuses me and that I don’t usually show. Anyway, no one likes me entirely. I felt it was my fragrance when I want to be in open mode, feminine, with that grunge touch, assertive but at peace, which is part of my essence. (Just kidding, I wanted to identify with the dark and mysterious, even the sinister side of grunge! BUT). It reminded me of when I surf, snorkel, go river rafting with friends, hug my boyfriend on the motorcycle, wear little makeup and loose clothes because I hate tightness. This perfume is freedom, sweetness, mental peace, joy (yes, crazy joy even though my life is dark), and above all, self-confidence. I can’t get it out of my life and I’ll do whatever it takes to have it even if it’s discontinued. A floral, me? This one. Hate it, because it’s my perfume ^^
