Raspberry Holiday Pie Bar

This is sold out now in my area, so I think this might be the most popular of the recent collaborations with celebrity chef, Christina Tosi, of Milk Bar. It smells amazing - liked a fruit-forward baked dessert square with shortbread/sugar-cookie base, sweet raspberry pie filling and a crumble topping. The note from the brand lists "sweet raspberry jelly, buttery sugar cookie and toasted almonds". I didn't immediately get the almond note, but when I looked for it, I could smell an almond extract type of note. This would be amazing on its own, or layered with other releases from the Milk Bar collaboration, almond scents, citrus scents, vanilla scents, fruity scents or floral scents and more, but I'll probably layer it with raspberry, red berries, orange, almond, vanilla, rose or jasmine scents. Love it. Enjoy!

This smells like a raspberry jelly donut and I like it!! It’s not a dupe but it does remind me a little of Minnie Mouse from HOS. I love it! I was nervous about the other milk bar scents so I went with the one that sounded the safest to me. I definitely have no interest in the peppermint one and cereal milk sounds disgusting so I only got the body washes because I could use my rewards for those and not regret spending money if I hated them. Update: Omg I finally used it in a layering combo this evening and I used the body wash, lotion, and spray with Brown Sugar Babe Madam( Minnie inspired ) and Kris P Kreem oil, VS Velvet Petals Brûlée, and Minnie Mouse.. It smells amazing!!

This is intoxicating to me and brings me right back to 1984 playing with Strawberry Shorcake dolls. I never had the Raspberry one but this is exactly how she would smell. I have the body creme too and paired together, there is just enough "oomph" that I can get suble whiff of myself for about 4 hours. I just wish the body mist had more staying power. On its own it becomes a memory very quickly. Amazing scent nonetheless!

The "less good" version of Raspberry Jam Donut. I remember when Raspberry Jam Donut & Strawberry Poundcake came out and I bought both. Raspberry Jam Donut was my absolute favorite (and could be amazingly/surprisingly layered with so many actual perfumes). I don't know why BBW kept Strawberry Poundcake but not Raspberry Jam Donut. 😟 i still have a little of the lotion left. Join me on YouTube, Fragrance Memoir 🫶

Tart raspberry with a buttery, warm pie crust balancing it from being too sweet. Very delicious! With the raspberry's tartness, it's wearable in the spring and summer. Meanwhile, the pie crust note adds that gourmand aspect that makes it suitable in fall and winter! A very wearable, fruity gourmand! For me, it's tied with Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel cookie for my favorites of the Milk Bar collection

Smells exactly like raspberry thumbprint cookies. On initial spray the raspberry preserves is prominent. On the dry down it becomes a creamy vanilla and on my chemistry, even like a powdery raspberry. Soft and feminine on the dry down as it fades. The almond cookie note isn't detected in the mist, but more obvious in the body cream form. This scent is my favorite of the Milkbar line.

Everytime I wear this I get compliments. Especially from my boyfriend. He says it smells like candy lol. Easily one of my favorites from B&BW. Performance and Sillage are so good for it to be a body mist. Definitely smells jammy. I’m sad it’s discontinued. I need this in a perfume 😭 I see this compared to Minnie Mouse by HoS, and im gonna have to sample it

I was worried about how tart it smelled on my first spray (not on skin). On my skin, I absolutely get the vanilla cookie note and it is incredible. I am always sad I missed out of Jelly Donut, and I wouldn;'t say this is 100% a dupe, but it is soo close (especially when layered with the pretzel cookie mist :,P)

This is lowkey competing with the Birthday Cake body spray from the same line for my favorite scent. The initial spritz, while being somewhat alcohol-y, immediately hits you in the face with raspberry jam before quickly adding a sweet, buttery crust in the mix!!! I'm in love!

i love this. it's a delicious tart raspberry with a background sweetness that reminds me of a graham cracker pie crust. it lasts fairly well, roughly 3 or 4 hours on my skin, and leaves a faint trail wherever i go.

If you've ever made or had raspberry ribbons/raspberry butter cookies, this smells just like that. The cookie base isn't too strong or butter-smelling, and the jam really leads. For a body mist, this is top tier.

Love it! Smells exactly like the raspberry thumbprint candle they had a few years back which ended up being one of my top bbw scents so I’m glad it’s back atleast in spray form

this literally smells just like a raspberry jam cookie. They nailed it. So yummy. I just wish it lasted longer!

smells EXACTLY like a thumbprint cookie!!! very cute and girly

this one is super sweet, but it’s sooooo good!!!!!

Raspberry Pie Holiday Bar smells scrumptious! When my nose first had access to it, I could smell lemon and raspberry. The raspberry in this mist smells so tart I love it. Even though it's not listed, I felt like I could smell a hint of a brown sugar note too . I really liked this one. Out of the entire collection, I felt this one smelled the best. Plus, in comparison to Birthday Cake, Raspberry Pie Holiday Bar lasted longer on my skin. If you like tart and fruity scents like me - this would be one to consider adding to your collection. I think it would be a fun mist to include in layering options as well. Specifically, I would recommend layering it with La Fede Manga Splash, Lattafa Yara Candy, or with Lattafa Honor & Glory.

A cute concept, but very weak in execution. The raspberry note is very fleeting on my skin, barely lasting more than five minutes before disappearing almost entirely. What remains is extremely faint, barely noticeable pie crust, and lacks enough presence to stand on its own. The fragrance feels incomplete by itself and heavily depends on layering with a stronger, cakey scent to make sense. When paired with something like Strawberry Pound Cake it becomes more wearable, but on its own it falls flat. Still, the raspberry itself is nice while it lasts, and as a light accent for layering it can be fun. Overall, enjoyable but unfortunately too weak to fully deliver on its promise.

i'm not a fruity gal, but this is honestly nice. i don't get almond tbh, just a sweet gourmand raspberry jam scent--it reminds me of those thumbprint cookies. it's super sweet but it's got a touch of tartness without pulling sour. the only downer is that this seems to evaporate off of me. idk if i'm going noseblind but i feel like while the initial spray is pretty typical for b&bw, the scent is gone before i can even get to the drydown.

Explicitly sweet and photorealistic, smells of raspberry Bear Paws that toddlers eat (which is a bonus point when you work with kids). All in all a pretty good gourmand if you want to smell like a breakfast bar while being on a tight budget!

I so agree that this smells like Minnie Mouse. I really like this scent profile I think this would pair nicely with my way or sugar cookie.
