Sweet

On me, this is a warm, comforting pear scent with an amber-y base. The effect is soft, but juicy at the same time- definitely reminiscent of a sweet yellow pear (extra points here because it seems like forever since I've tried a frag that actually has an accurate name and bottle design!) Where I think some people might have issue with it is the amber note is similar to the amber in Ellis Brooklyn's Super Amber- there is a little bit of a "fresh soil" scent to it underneath the sweetness. Sounds weird, but to me it's good. The only thing I don't like about it is the alcohol smell in the opening, but that's a pretty common gripe I have with a lot of perfumes. Very low sillage after the first hour, but I get oddly good longevity out of it otherwise. It's really growing on me and I like it enough to pick up a travel size, (although I may test out God is a Woman to see if that's actually comparable, because this is a bit expensive for what it is.)

I understand these reviews, and none of these notes should appeal to me but I love this perfume very much and find it different than the mass market, nondescript fruity florals. It opens sweet but has a lovey amber musky scent to it, and I get whiffs of violet. Reading the notes, I should not love as I do but just ordered a bottle and want to wear it every day and night for summer, and hope it can last a while into Fall. It is sexy! I dont really get pear from it but perhaps the marshmallow sweetness and general sugary scent. It is a lovely contradiction and while the longevity is not great, I find it far superior to the perfumes it is compared to, no headache and more natural. A total winner for me! When the scent is almost gone it makes my skin smell like I wish I naturally smelled :)

Sweet pear compote dissolves into the clean skin scent that seems to be the backbone of all Ellis Brooklyn perfumes. Others have mentioned Sour Patch Kids, to me this is more Swedish Fish. She’s the friendly, polite girl you meet at a friend’s birthday party. Non-judgmental, makes you feel at ease and encouraged in conversation, but kind of basic. Very hot in a clean girl way. She’s a Swiftie and she wears Everlane. Obsessed with her cat. Moved to the city with her boyfriend last year. They live on Bedford Ave and they’re paying way too much. EDIT: as maybe you guessed, I sorely misjudged this chica! Sweet has become an easy, light summer go-to. There’s something to be said for simple likeability.

I'm blown away by the artistry in this one. For one, it's the first time I've smelled a pear note that was realistic. It feels like the light amounts of violet and heliotrope in Sweet are specifically here to amp up the pear note instead of singing for themselves. The sweetness is light rather than nauseating, and the orris gives it a pleasant fluff around the edges without going into full powder mode. The white amber gives it depth without turning it into a full-on amber fragrance. It's extremely well balanced, but you can still catch different notes here and there (like an occasional whiff of bergamot). I wish I knew the nose behind this one so I could find out what else they've made.

This is one of my favorite perfumes! It’s complex, warm, Iris-y, sweet, and sexy. Fitting for any occasion, time of year, time of day. I get so many compliments when I wear it. It lasts about 6 hours on me. The other day while shopping, I was sniffing perfumes per usual, and came across Lancôme’s latest: La Vie Est Belle Iris Absolue. I feel in love. I ordered a large sample. I wore it for a couple days. I did start to detect a faint sharp/ chemical-y note. But kept wearing. Then I realized that it smelled very familiar. It is very very similar to EB Sweet! However, Sweet is less sweet and cloying, softer, and better! And clean ingredients, which is important to me.

It smells like a pear fruit cup. Like you spilled it all over and your chin and fingers are sticky. Super nostalgic and I love it. This is definitely in the same family as Sun Fruit and Father Figure. It's almost very similar to Orris 22. It's juicy, fruity, and perfectly powdery all at the same time. It's much more muted than Sun Fruit and more "sweet" and feminine than Father Figure, but it has that same intoxicating base. I can't stop sniffing my arm. It's fantastic, I do wish it projected better though. It's too weak and that's the only reason I can't justify a new bottle. I don't want to have to sniff my arm to smell my perfume.

I can't say how much of it is chemistry, but this is a clean-smelling fruity floral on me that is more refreshing than sweet. Yes, it's somewhat sweet, but not as much as it's slightly creamy and soapy beneath a freshly cut pear. The cashmeran and amber are reminiscent of Trish by Trish McEvoy, though perhaps it's a transitional stage. I do find a synthetic muskiness to this fragrance - and its sharp twist - somewhat interesting. It's not up there with my favourite gourmands (I'm not even sure it is a gourmand on me - I certainly get none of the marshmallow) but it's a pleasant wear that works all year round. Yes, I like it.

I have to agree with other reviews in the fact that it does smell like Swedish fish! IMO, this fragrance is somewhere in the middle between God is a Woman and Glossier You, but with added powderiness from the marshmallow. If you like those types of fragrances, then you will like this one! For being named Sweet, it is surprisingly not too sweet and is actually a bit on the lighter side. I really enjoy this fragrance, and I think it is an easy reach for everyday wear! ☀️🍐🍭💛

Holy crap this is Swedish fish in a bottle, and honestly I'm here for it! The name of this perfume does not kid around, and genuinely only for those who really enjoy gourmand smells. I would love to wear this as a signature, but I know it's definitely sickeningly sweet for many people. The projection is decent and dry down really nice, it's something I know I really want and might make this my spring or inner-child scent!

I really enjoy this. First wear made me think of blue skies with just the right amount of couds to not be considered gloomy, but full sun and air with a touch of salt on warm skin. Neither masc nor fem on me but quite nice. It’s a beautiful mix of notes with the ambrette, violet, pear and marshmallow being my personal faves. It reminded me of BR540 extrait and instant crush in the dry down.

This stuff is soooo delicious. Only issue is that the longevity is complete garbage! Evaporates within 30 minutes or less. Doesn't last on paper, skin, or clothes as far as I can tell. Sweet is....perfectly named as a perfume. It does smell similar to god is a woman by ariana, however that one smells a tiny bit worse and the dry-down is cheap. Not as well blended or smooth as this one.

This is one of those perfumes where if you walked past me and wore this, I would stop you to ask what you’re wearing. It’s sweet and fruity but in a sophisticated way. The pear is the main character of course, which I love and the dry down is immaculate. Definitely a great summer fragrance although I think you can wear this all year around. I would buy this again for sure!

this scent is so amazing. it totally smells almost exactly like God is a Woman by Ariana Grande but the dry down is completely different. First of all the fruity notes in this perfume do not wear out anywhere near as fast as Arianas do and this perfume is more sweet and sugary than Arianas. It lasts very long and has beautiful amber notes towards the end.

I really enjoy Sweet by Ellis Brooklyn. It opens fruity, clean and a bit powdery to my nose. This fragrance leans a bit feminine, but it has “sweet” gourmand qualities that I think make it unisex. The simple description would be it smells like fruity candy, think Sour Patch Kids or Swedish fish. I like it, very pleasant, my favorite by Ellis Brooklyn.

Gorgeous. Fluffy sweet marshmallow with greenly sweet pear, floral sweet orris, violet and heliotrope, musky sweet amber, cashmeran and ambrette. Lasts all day and beyond - it will revive itself next day in the morning workout. I wanted marshmallow and sweetness without feeling like I was wearing a tween body spray or celeb scent, and SWEET nailed it!

This gets me compliments every time I wear it. I will repurchase until the end of time! The pear comes out as sweet and candied. The middle notes really ground it to be more than just a sweet scent. The marshmallow and amber work really well together in the base. I recommend to anyone who wants a sweet and addictive scent.

This is one of the best smells I’ve ever smelled before, this is exactly what I love in a perfume. It’s fruity, juicy, airy, sweet, powdery, soft and bright. I tend to love mallow, pear, and fruity airy vanilla perfumes along the lines of Mod vanilla, Liis studied, Sparkling Nectar. Shame it doesn’t last at all 😭😭😭

Tested in store. I noticed it lingered most of the afternoon and shone through the other fragrances I had tested on my skin. It is a bright, candy-coated fragrance, perhaps a little juvenile - but I loved it. Reminiscent of pear jelly beans, Swedish Fish, and those sugary edible flowers in fancy cocktails.

This such a criminally underrated fragrance! It has unique pear and marshmallow scent that is perfect for the summer. Everyone always compliments me when I'm wearing it and it has become one of my favorites. It smells youthful, without being childish. I'm always sniffing myself whenever I'm wearing it.

@momopeach, have you tried La Belle (either variations) by Gaultier? That has a strong pear note and is very sweet, dessert type vibes? Sweet by Brooklyn Ellis is all pears and lolly shop vibes... heavenly. Love wearing this one on my arms whilst I am also wearing Angel's Share... beautiful gourmands!
