Pros & Cons
- ✅ I really really REALLY love this one. At first I got the sweet cake scent, then the drydown to the rose water skin scent goodness. I don’t find this scent linear at all, I actually find it to be a pretty complex gourmand. It’s definitely a new favorite, if not my new signature scent!!
- ✅ Ok this smells like the pink frosted cookie from Crumbl and I love it. Wasn't expecting to like this so much since im a rose hater but I really barely get rose. Its delicious.
- ✅ This is SUPER pretty. First thought was 'I've smelled something similar before' and it was 'A Party or Something' by Sorce. I think it's the almond/almond cake note. I usually smell pistachio in perfume like febreeze, but this is beautifully done and adds a creamy nuttiness to it that helps it give a true vanilla sponge cake scent to it. The rosewater comes through a little later and helps balance it on the dry down, simply in LOVE with this, will be graduating it to a full size soon!

- ✅ For some reason on me it dries down smelling like the herbal essence blue hair conditioner. I really like this a lot.
- ❌ At first sprtiz its a caramel cake . Then after a few minutes it dry downs quick and becomes a skin scent. A photo realistic cake scent. Soft and not overpowering.
- ❌ I tested at Sephora today, I'm super disappointed! I was really intrigued by the cardamom/rose water/pistachio combo and hoping for a middle eastern desert vibe. It just smells like playdough and cake. Very cheap and reminiscent of a birthday cake candle from the dollar store. It immediately reminded me of something when I smelled it, and whoever said it smells like B&BW milk bar line is absolutely correct. Even before this line, YEARSS ago B&BW had a really popular limited edition bodycare line called Confetti Cake Pop and this smells exactly like that. I barely detect any cardamom or rose unfortunately. It smells yummy but in a 'I am now craving cake' way not in a I wanna smell like this way lol. I feel like the market is currently flooded with these types of cake/vanilla sweet category of fragrances. IT'S ENOUGH!! LOL.
- ❌ This is pistachio on my skin. Pistachio plus like fresh shaving cream. I was hoping for cake & frosting. But this is warm, nutty, with freshness. Definitely sample first before buying, if you can!
- ❌ You just have to test this on your skin. On paper it was nice, but the dry down on my skin..... the worst smelling perfume I've ever tried.
