Knee High is a fruity floral gourmand fragrance created by Alie Kiral and launched in 2026 as Pearfat’s limited edition summer release. From their website: The corn piled up at the corner stand looks like it’s smiling at you, its just-off-white teeth in juicy, deliberate rows as if to prove the existence of a higher power with a passion for vegetable design. “A good crop is knee high by the 4th of July,” the man winks as he slips you an extra cob outside the range of your mother’s watchful eye. You hold it gingerly, like a baby, shielding it from the hot summer air—this holiday, this country, nothing could mean as much to you in this exact moment as what’s in your arms, the honeysuckle kissing your ankles, the fresh blueberries you’re not allowed to eat in the car for fear of stains. Knee High features a top note of Indiana sweet corn; middle notes of honeysuckle and tiger lily; and base notes of fresh blueberries and hot summer air. It is an eau de parfum, edp.
PEARFAT PARFUM KNEE HIGH
Fragrantica: “Like being in the backyard, surrounded by cornfields, on a hot summer day. The air is THICK and wet from the corn sweats, as the slightly sweet aroma fills the air around you. You’re snacking on a bowl of blueberries and waiting for the cool breeze to return. The florals aren’t super noticeable but they’re there. Maybe not full bottle worthy for me, but so pretty & unique! Surprisingly wearable.”
Fragrantica: “Knee High is sooo fantastically weird lol. Not linear at all, first spray was a weird mix between Captain Crunch and corn meal, then the green leaf of the corn comes and goes, lastly it dries down into an airy fruity floral. At first it smelled dense, like summer humidity then dries down to it being more fresh. The blueberry isn’t very synthetic, it smells like very sweet blueberry jam wafting in the air. Never smelled anything like it before.”
Fragrantica: “Immediately, it's smells like corn silk when you peel corn, very vegetal. It moves towards the sweet blueberry note, but more like a blueberry dessert, creamier than I expected.”
Fragrantica: “The opening makes me think of freshly picked corn with still of that outdoor smell to it, a bit earthy. It also has this dirt/soil accord that I’m picking up. As it settles I get more of that blueberry and it turns into this earthy sweet corn next to some blueberry lemonade but the blueberry flavor takes over the lemonade so it’s more of a blueberry juice lol.”
Fragrantica: “Originally ordered this just for fun with no expectations. Is it a little bit sickening? Yes. Do I love it? Also yes. Imagine: your chosen families rural property - "grandma" has fresh corn in a basket in the sun waiting to be grilled for lunch, she's burning a blueberry Yankee Candle in the kitchen. You can hear the horses across the property, the dogs are running around. It's 80 degrees, the flowers are in bloom, and there's a slight breeze. In the way of the blueberry note, this is what I wanted from Thin Wild Mercury's Sheep Meadow.”
Fragrantica: “Yummy! If you've ever tried and enjoyed Korean corn tea, or Korean corn ice cream, you'd like this. Sweet and subtle corn but enough to make an impression. Then you start to smell the blueberry, and it's like a corn bread blueberry muffin. However, it's not overly gourmand because of the added florals. Definitely worth a try but not fbw for me.”
Fragrantica: “Really does smell like a hot summer day in a field. Like late summer when the grass is dying. Very corn forward at first which provides an earthy sweetness. Gets a little floral as I dries down and the blueberry starts to come out. I wish I got more fresh blueberry from this. It's really pleasant though, just kind of faint on my skin.”
