Strawberry Pound Cake 2020

I first had Strawberry Pound cake when the farm house cafe collection came out which had sugared cherry crisp, Vanilla mocha cafe, Etc came out((2020)). The packaging was everything and just so cute, however SPC didn’t have the best longevity and wasn’t headache inducing like it has been in the faceted bottle recently((smelled like strawberry rubbing alcohol)) but for some reason even after that, I wanted to give SPC another try since I needed a sweet girly scent that I can use because it’s uplifting for me, and I loved strawberries so, I gave SPC another go this year, and JUST WOW. the formula has changed up since its been out and in its latest repackages, it’s not headache inducing anymore and the longevity is impressive for a body mist, and I have tested if not almost all BBW mists that BBW has to offer((popularized mists)), and by far, SPC is the best when it comes to longevity on the skin and clothes. SPC is a scent that I feel anyone will like, definitely pleasing, because who doesn’t like a strawberry poundcake? But honestly this years version reminds me of strawberry cheesecake instead of pound cake, it’s so creamy, sweet, and just yummy. I honestly wanna get a back up because its soooo good, definitely happy I gave SPC a chance again, hopefully they won’t tweak the formula of this one because it’s spot on perfect. Definitely a comfy scent for me, if you don’t have SPC, buy her, she’s definitely a keeper, and a safe buy.

I purchased this BBW Strawberry Pound Cake just to see what it was like. Overall, I found that it's a bit too sweet for my taste, so I may have to use some BBW Oh Cherry or BBW Apple & Honey with it to tart it up a notch. These BBW are all layering scents are meant for experimenting just to see what I can come up with. his one really does give Strawberry Shortcake vibes and only a certain personality type can carry it off to be able to wear it straight up. Anyway, it picks up my mood and makes me smile, that is all that really matters. These fruit scents would all go well with other bright floral scents and other fruit scents. I would stay away from spice or rose scents or what you concoct will end up smelling like a bathroom air freshener. The only exception is BBW Apple Honey with Cinnamon Spice which may work well. Thank goodness this formula had no vanilla detected. BBW vanilla comes off as stink bugs on me for some reason, yet I can wear vanilla fragrance in other scents which has me curious. From what I understand, I am not the first to say that! I do love the fruity scents at BBW though.

I don't know what it is about this one, but I never grow tired of it. I have a few different versions of this (different years, packaging) and there doesn't seem to be any variation between them which is nice. I love it from first spray to dry down, (especially the dry down) and whatever lingers on my clothes and in my hair afterwards. It's such a perfect sweet strawberry-whipped cream-cupcake-doll scent and everytime I wear it I fall in love with it over and over again. I don't usually get compliments because I like to keep my scent close to me, but this is one of the few scents I've received them on. One from my husband, who compliments it every single time he smells it on me, and another from a coworker who almost made it weird. I think this one of those scents that you either love, or hate with a passion. I'm a lover!

Favorite go to Bath and Body Works scent, Although I can't really smell the cake part it has more of a vanilla undertone but heavy on the strawberry almost like strawberry jam or syrup super sweet and gourmand. I only ever buy this scent from Bath and Body Works whenever I run out. It's perfect if you are someone who loves gourmand scents you will love this. I do wish bath and body would have kept the original packaging when it was redesigned in 2021 when it was the bakery packaging it looked so much cuter rather then when it was switched too plain red I also think the scent was changed as well since I had the one with the bakery packaging in 2021 and when i compared it to the plain red packaging in 2022 it smelled more heavy on the alchol and more like fresh strawberries rather than strawberry syrup and vanilla cake :(.

this is such a guilty pleasure fragrance for me. i usually go for more unisex, deep scents (amber, patchouli, woodsy notes) but for whatever reason, i cannot get enough of this. i hesitated about getting this for such a long time since i generally don't love fruity frags and this just seemed so juvenile, but strawberry is one of my favorite fruits and the scent of strawberries just gets me every time. the opening's very synthetic and sharp, but it settles down pretty quickly to a cozy, vanilla strawberry scent that just makes me feel so safe and happy. projection and longevity are both decent for a mist, so if you don't mind smelling "cheap," this is sweet, cozy goodness.
