Cookie Bite

I sampled Cookie Bite and the opening is pure comfort: a realistic burst of freshly baked butter cookies straight from the oven. It’s a gourmand lover’s dream, no complaints here, especially since I’ve been on a serious unisex gourmand kick lately (Mounjaro helped me lose 14 kg in 4 months but I somehow gained 100+ bottles of dessert in a bottle!). CB feels creamier and more lactonic than many of its DNA cousins in my collection including: a) Amy (Amyris) Sugar Cookie (Fragrantica still hasn’t caught up) b) Paris Corner Creamy Biscuit c) Dua Cookies & Milk (Cerchi Nell'Acqua Latte e Biscotti inspiration) d) Tubbees Cookies & Cream e) Lattafa Give Me Gourmand - Whipped Pleasure, and f) Beaufort Lignum Vitae The catch? That buttery biscuit accord vanishes after about 15 minutes, leaving behind milky, lactonic notes that can lean sour. I now understand why some reviewers mention “baby formula” or even “condensed milk gone rogue.” It’s not unpleasant but it’s definitely a shift. Full-bottle worthy? I’m on the fence. Gulf Orchid’s gourmand line-up intrigues me but I might hold off until Black Friday deals roll in. For now, CB remains a curious little cookie sample - sweet, creamy and just a bit unpredictable.

4. ~2 week update: I love using this layered with Eshal (V28 dupe)!! 3. Update overnight use: The dry down on this is as delicious as in store. It smells so so so edible and I'm so happy. This brings me closer to transforming into a cake and I am satisfied. 2. Update upon purchase: Just opened my bottle today. I will be honest it smelled nicer in the store so I think it needs some maceration. At the present it smells KIND of like Molten Caramel by Paris Corner. I will give it a few weeks to get to that smell I had when I tested it in the store. 1. Review on test strip for 24 hours at the store before purchasing: This isn't a BL dupe. Literally smells like cookies and warm sweet caramel WITHOUT the milky lactonic smell when it dries down. It's what I thought molten caramel and all the caramel perfumes were going to be. (Intrusive thoughts: I bit the test strip at one point cause it smelled so delicious) Also! I had a kayali vanilla 28 tester strip and smelled it together with cookie bite, and it was AWESOME. I have Eshal on order and i'm pretty sure they're gonna smell amazing together!!

Oh wow, I cannot believe how straight yummy this is! The execution is really spectacular here. Buttery chocolate chip cookie without pushing too far and becoming a gross and cloying disaster. Theres something Coconut-y in the Caramel base that harmoniously holds this all together. I have Lattafa’s ‘Cookie Crave’ and that is fully a Chocolate confectionery experience where this is distinctly that crunchy, sweet, kinda salty Chips Ahoy moment. 🍪 Ive had a few duds from Gulf Orchid recently and its honestly put me off trying until now. ‘Cookie Bite’ has raised my hopes/interests in their offerings. 😇

this is one of the best gourmands i've ever smelled- one of the VERY few times i smell something and go 'oh my god i just want to eat it'. i'm shocked at how delicious this is and it STAYS. i am layering it with date syrup today and i smell like a sticky, caramel toffee pudding and vanilla ice-cream. then i sprayed a bit of bianco latte for a more milky note + a bit of artisan ethnique to make it more 'grown up' and sexy! i don't understand the person saying 'bianco latte dupe' as it's nothing like it at all, tbh. actually, bianco latte does not compare to the gourmand delicacy this is. 5/5

just blind bought this and idk how no one has said this yet but this smells EXACTLY like a cinnamon sugared pretzel. like exactly... i dont get cookie at all all i get is pretzel LOL. its not bad, just not what i thought it would smell like. just an edp to the bbw cinnamon sugar pretzel to me edit - 2 weeks later and the more this macerates its evoling to a buttery cookie, no chocolate tho. more of snickerdoodle. edit #2 - after a month of macerating im finally getting that fresh chocolate chip cookie smell. so good!

This perfume has really played with my emotions..Ive gone from loving it to hating it back to loving it..okay I think it is definitely good but probably should not be oversprayed. Its a sugar cookie drizzled in caramel. It needs maceration when you get it to smoothen out some sharpness. Its delicious though. Update: Wow after a month it has really macerated wonderfully. I no longer get the cloying smell but a beautifully mellowed well-blended cookie!

a little synthetic when you first put it on, but once its on your skin for a while it smells AMAZING.. smells just like a sugar cookie and butter!! very long lasting as well, literally can smell this on myself <<3 the longer you have this perfume, the better it smells! have received SOOOO many compliments from people everytime i layer this perfume with my Choco Musk by Al-Rehab. i even spray this on myself before bed .. im in LOVE with this

It's not a Bianco Latte dupe or Sol de Janeiro 71 dupe. The scent of this perfume is literally a mixture of Chips Ahoy cookies and Cappuccino Coffee. The projection is insane. It lasts 7-8 hours on my skin. My classmates always tell me that I smell great thanks to this perfume. Some tell me that my scent reminds them of freshly baked cookies. I love it. If you want to be a walking bakery like me, this perfume is for you. 10/10.

1st impressions were lackluster due to poor longevity so I put it away for a few months into the "sell" jail. It's been a few months and decided to revisit. Let me tell yah...she got much stronger as far as longevity and what I'm picking up on is the sweet delicious raw cookie batter and I'm here for it. She's definetely a delicious keeper, and to think I almost walked away from this gorgeous gem. Love.

Smells like you opened a fresh bag of chips ahoy cookies, put one on a plate, and microwaved it for 30 seconds. 🥰 after an hour or so, it dries down to a salted caramel chips ahoy. Imagine you’re baking a caramel cookie, and you get those crispy, bubbly caramel edges and a healthy dose of butter. Yummy, comforting, and worth every penny!!

absolutely loveeee this, smells just like cookie dough as others have said 🍪 really good to layer with something salty or creatively combine a different flavor profile like coconut, more cocoa, cake, or a deep sultry vanilla

I hate this one.. it makes me crave caramel popcorn and chocolate chip cookies!!!!!! it smells exactly like that. never wanted to eat a perfume so bad!

It smells delicious like a warm butter cookie straight out of the oven. I don't find it to be a dupe of SDJ 71.

I cant agree more with the comment below. You summed it up perfectly, well done!

Just got this, it smells exactly like a coconut almond vanilla macaroon cookie to me that you would get as a treat on the side of a coffee order, must be from the butter and of course vanilla ingredients in this. You don’t get any chocolate chip at all, which makes sense as there is no chocolate listed in the ingredients. I have Eclair by Lattaffa and the dry down on this cookie bite is similar to the vanilla opening of that. The scent doesn’t seem too strong or lasting on my skin but it is a yummy vanilla with a final sweet cookie dough smell (but without chocolate). Would be good to layer :)

I honestly really hated it at first, but I removed the sprayer to reduce the stronger fumes that I got from it. After that, I decided to try layering it with Choco musk, and it was HEAVENLY. I did the same method with chocomusk and I smelt so damn delectable. To me, I smelled sweet in a warm, sugary, sort of nutty way. Like a sugar cookie with caramel and almonds or something.

Warm tray of chocolate chip cookies and the chocolate is melted and hardened on the pan. Dries down much heavier almost like maple syrup. Probably one of the heaviest gourmands I own. Compared to Tubbees, this is pure cookie. When I want to smell like nothing but cookies, I wear this.

This is an extremely sweet buttery cookie scent. It can be very cloying or heavy with too many sprays, but it is definitely an extreme sweet gourmand if that's what you're looking for. I like it but I don't think I'll want it on my chest/neck, I'd want it to waft from farther away.

Snagged from Burlington on clearance at $23.39, and what a steal! Safe blind buy for gourmand lovers, and anyone who loves the scent of fresh cookies.🍪🧁🍰

Buttery sugar cookies before going into the oven. This lacked a toastiness from baked cookies originally. Update: Now I’m getting churros.

I agree with what most of people said before: this is not sweet cookie 🍪 from grandma, its more like cookie 🥨. Its not sweet and its not beast mode. Unfortunately, i prefer molten caramel due to its sweetness. Overall, gulf orchid has only one perfume that i liked. Rest was quite disappointing.

Smells like a worse more buttery version of creme of clouds. Like a Bianco Latte wannabe tried to switch directions mid formulation and ended up being the worst of two worlds

nope. i never thought i’d say that i liked the initial spray more than the dry down for a fragrance, but here we are. the initial spray is tolerable, to me it doesn’t smell like chocolate chip cookies, it just smells like someone eff’d up making a cookie from scratch. the dry down, oh god. the dry down smells like warm milky baby vomit to me. i sprayed it on my sweater yesterday and when i picked up my sweater this morning i almost gagged. fortunately it wasn’t strong as the perfume lasts less than an hour for me, but it definitely still lingered on my sweater. last time i’m ever trusting a tiktok fragrance influencer again lol

It is nothing like Bianco Latte. This is something completely different and in the direction of a caramel popcorn butter cookie. If you can imagine one, this is it. Very good longevity and projection. I’m really happy to have found this.🍪

This is a photorealistic chocolate chip cookie. I just got it, and I’m wearing it for the first time, but I see myself layering this with a marshmallow fragrance, like Ellis Brooklyn marshmallow - or marshmallow blush for some sweetness.

I have a lot of gourmand fragrances but nothing like this! New favorite...smells a little like 71 but better more cookie/caramel it’s sweet and mouthwatering a slight saltiness its absolutely delicious!You will smell like a snack!❤️

Wait, this smells so much like lush sticky dates to me, which I love, so no need for this. I just got it in the post though and it's cold from the outdoor temperature. I'll give it a proper wear when it warms to room temp.

Got mine from amazon for 22$ and its a delicious scent of homemade chocolate chip cookies, the butter is not taking over the scent, its a great gourmand scent if you love a sweet cookie scent with butter and caramel.

Sniffed the cap in a store, wow sickening. Sweet chemical cookies. These gourmands are a simple cash grab. It doesn't smell like perfume, it smells like flavour drops you add to food.

synthetic upon spraying the dry down tho is heavenly i wanted to eat my hands lol

Please unshackle us from the Bianco Latte Dupes, I beg.

Is this another Sol de Janeiro 71 dupe?
