Blush Bouquet
Notes: Top: Cherry Blossoms; Mid: Peony, Sweet Pea, Lily; Bottom: Amber
This is a very sweet floral scent with a perfumey note. I think it's cherry blossoms with maybe a smidgen of baby powder, but there's also some other floral note in there like maybe jasmine and/or rose, and a tiny bit of amber like warmth. It's a little bit like a Pink Sugar scent but without the fruit, very sweet and girly. I really like it!
Someone in our Facebook group said "On cold sniff, there’s a light floral fragrance, mixed with just a bit of light perfume. It’s too floral for me to say 'clean', but it leans that way. When melted, it’s true to its cold scent. Lightly floral—spring flowers mixed with a light rose. There is a bit of perfume, but it’s not musky. The throw is pretty good but not too strong 3.5-4 out of 5. It’s lasting a long time, too. I definitely catch the peonies, but I think the mixture takes it away from authentic peony scent, moving it more to a light pink rose. It also mentions amber, which must be the mild perfume scent."
Throw: Medium, 3.25 out of 5
Floral Candy
Notes: Traces of pear blossom, sparkling rose water, sugared rose petals, lily, Ylang Ylang, powdery musk & marshmallow
I thought based on the scent name that this would be Pink Sugar scent, but it's completely different. Pink Sugar is a super sweet raspberry based girly perfume scent. This is also not a cotton candy scent, as that is more fruity, with raspberry and lemon notes, and no floral or perfumey notes. This scent is more of a candy scent with a floral note. It's perfumey, but not as sweet and rich as Pink Sugar can be. It has a vanilla marshmallowy note, and only a slight fruity note (strawberry or apple, maybe?). Although the throw is bold and I can smell it throughout the house, it's not an overly strong scent, so it's not overwhelming. Getting a strong throw from this type of scent is unusual!
Throw: Bold, 5 out of 5
Seaside Woods
Notes: Top: Orange Blossoms, Cool Citrus; Mid: Sweet Alyssum, Acacia; Bottom: Cottonwood, Driftwood
Fantastic scent that smells like a light beach wood, musk, a sweet floral like sweet pea, and a little bit of sweet tobacco and maybe a smidgen of patchouli. It's a very unique scent and I love it. Looking at the notes, there's the beach wood (driftwood) and sweet floral (acacia and alyssum), but no tobacco, and I don't smell any citrus notes. If I had to classify it, I'd say it's kind of an incensey scent, but it's also a little bit perfumey.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
Turquoise Glass
Notes: Top: Iced Watermelon, Peach Tea; Mid: Sea Breeze, Tiara Flower, Freesia; Bottom: Musk, White Cedarwood
A fresh, watery, slightly sweet scent with a smidgen of floral and fruit (watermelon? apple?), but it's definitely a fresh scent rather than a floral or fruity scent, and it's not perfumey at all, nor does it have the salty note that some oceany scents tend to have. It has a tiny bit of a soapy note that makes it smell a little like shower gel, but although it's sweet, it's not quite sweet enough for shower gel. It may also have a smidgen of coconut. I have a lot of scents that are similar to this one, but I still like it.
Someone in our Facebook group said, "There is a soapy or perfume undertone, but the scent in the foreground is much like clean spring or ocean water. It doesn’t quite have the salty quality of salt water, and it’s not quite as mineral based as spring water, but there’s definitely a water tone. I’d say this is a clean smell. I don’t know how they capture the scent of a color, but if turquoise had a scent, this would be it. I think there is also something sweet floating around in there. I would still qualify this as a 'clean scent', but it’s completely different from any linen, laundry, or soap scent."
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
White Strawberry Bellini
Notes: Top: Pineapple, Orange; Mid: Mango, Peach Nectar, Chilled Champagne; Bottom: Sugar
This might be one of the best fruity scents I've ever smelled! I smell strawberry, raspberry, pineapple, and maybe a hint of guava or mango. It's a super syrupy sweet candy like fruity scent with a hint of tartness. Someone in our Facebook group said it's a "really sweet strawberry/champagne fragrance." Strangely, there's no strawberry in the scent notes.
Throw: Bold, 5 out of 5
