Vanilla Ice Cream

This is BY FAR my favorite demeter fragrance so far. Its all about preference in my opinion but I love Gourmands especially vanilla based ones. This smells exactly like vanilla ice cream 🍦. Its milky vanilla ice cream on top of a sweet wafer cone. This is the kind of ice cream that would come from a nice parlor with kindhearted workers and a nice atmosphere. Its the kind of ice cream that isn't too hard or too soft but you have to eat it fast because its melting! Definitely reminds me of summer though it may be too sweet for the heat. I do get the freezer feeling on initial spray but then it warms up. The freezer isn't nasty or messy either. It the cleanest freezer fully stocked with your favorite ice cream. When you walk in it cools you down from the heat outside. Demeter does simple Gourmands very well I've noticed and this is one of them. Its simple vanilla ice cream. You get what you asked for with the name. I wanna test this out in cold weather because I feel like it would do well. Something in this reminds me of the holidays. I also want vanilla cake batter hopefully they are different enough to keep both! :) lasting power isn't too bad either compared to the rest of demeter fragrances. One thing I noticed though. When people buy demeter fragrances they get upset when a fragrance smells exactly like what its called witch confuses me. When you get this your getting vanilla ice cream. Nothing fancy or high end. Simple good ol vanilla ice cream. :) Edit: the longer it stays on my skin the warmer and more wafer like it gets. Almost like slowly eating the ice cream down to the cone. And the cone is kinda softer because the ice cream is melting. Still really good! Its also long lasting on me.

Extremely buttery and rich! It doesn’t smell like vanilla ice cream per se, but it’s still a really nice vanilla. It’s not that sharp powdered vanilla in most cheap perfumes or candles. It’s like a salted crème brûlée without the burnt sugar. I mix this as a base with spice gourmands and it gives a comforting depth and thickness that I haven’t gotten elsewhere.

Cheap vanilla ice cream on a wafer cone or in a wafer sandwich; it has a toasted, almost burnt vanilla with evaporated powdery milk scent. Reminds me of being a little girl messily eating an ice cream cone in the heat of summer. It’s a sweet familiar scent. 🤍🥛🍦

I reach for this quite a lot just recently! It’s so sweet and I get loads of compliments when I’m wearing it! Somebody even told me once that I “smelt good enough to eat”! Cheap enough to buy to use as an everyday perfume. Great blind buy!

This smells sooo good!!! I feel it smells like caremel popcorn more than Vanilla Ice Cream... It's pretty weak in longevity and sillage... But it's Yummy, so whatever!!
