Rice Milk

What a lovely cosy scent! It opens with a beautiful nutty hazelnut note. I've never smelled hazelnut in a perfume before, so it's exciting to discover something new. It's not too dry or overly creamy either, and the hazelnuts still have their skins on. I don't get any bergamot or lily of the valley distinctly. The rice soon comes into play and blends with the hazelnut. Wow so pretty! The fragrance has a slight lactonic feeling, but not in a typical milky or rice pudding way. It's more like the creaminess of rice starch, whilst the rice itself smells lightly toasted. I hope that makes sense, it's quite hard to describe! There's a floral lift in the background that keeps everything balanced. I couldn't tell you which flowers I'm smelling because they're blended seamlessly. I don't pick up on the sweet almond note really. It's musky too, which adds a softness and makes these foodie notes feel more wearable for everyday. In the dry down, the milkiness fades and the rice remains. I'm smelling cashmere woods and maybe a touch of cedar, along with the musk. The woods aren't overpowering. I don't smell any vanilla or cream... and honestly I wouldn't want to! I expected this to be sweeter and more floral, but I love that it's a bit savoury. I have a sample of L'Eau Papier, and can definitely see why people compare them. Rice Milk takes the rice in a nuttier more lactonic direction, whilst LP feels drier and woodier. I love the smell of both, sue me! LP only lasts an hour on my skin sadly, whereas RM gives me 3 hours. I know, it's still on the weaker side... but I'm hoping the performance improves with age. We'll see!

I got this one today for my birthday! Its so heavenly!!! Im Obviously a bit biased since my mother bought it for me, but upon opening i noticed how the bottle was a bit smaller than i expected. Despite that its very delicately designed, the rose-gold accents are absolutely gorgeous !!! On my first spray, i got hit with the smell of orange blossom accompanied with a lactonic smoothness to it. Its a rather light scent, so i can already assume its sillage is rather moderate. If i had to describe a scene to this itd be standing midst a field of wheat, threatening to be taken over by flowers blossoming between. A compination of morning glory, poppies and daisies. The sun is slowly arising, and the ground feels damp from left over petrichor of the night before. There are white butterflies swirling the field, up early just like you! The sky is a pale blue which fades into a yellower tone, and the clouds are in different shades of pink and peach; thats what this smells like to me!! This is also a safe blind buy, coming from a blind buyer!

What a lovely fragrance. Upon first spray I was immediately reminded of Diptyque L’eau papier. Like they strongly resemble but not quite 1:1. Very musky throughout. I’m oddly am reminded of the smells of newborn baby’s breath. It Smells of creamy, light rice paper to sum it up. I also get some resemblance of glossier you to my nose. I was surprised Ambroxan wasn’t a note in this fragrance. As it goes from wet-dry the woodiess from that cedar wood comes through. I didn’t really get any halzenut in the opening and the almond in here is not nutty. It’s more of an almond milk. The fragrance went through a bit of a journey on my skin. So comforting, powdery, and well balanced I can’t wait to add a full bottle to my collection. She going to be perfect for my bedtime routines.

I absolutely love this scent; its everything the name says- Rice Milk! The rice scent is there but in a refreshing way, not a yucky starchy note at all. It is complemented with all the other notes. This perfume has a pleasant creamy, fresh, light musky DNA. It is lovely! If you like Lactea Divina or Her Confession, you may like this one. It's not as gourmand leaning as those, but still in that same scent family. The only downside is that I wish it lasted longer and i'm someone who oversprays, I had to re-spray 3 times in one day. Its worth it though, and since its cheap i'll just stock up on more bottles.

I fuxwitit. My bottle was pre-owned, so I'm guessing that it's pretty settled atp. It does open up a bit harsh with the florals but that subsides fairly quickly, letting the sweetness and lactonic notes overtake. A little nutty, a little starchy, not overly sweet, not overly lactonic. Personally, I wish this had more of a pronounced rice note but I actually love this as is. It's a more versatile gourmand but I really can't see myself wearing this in the heat or the cold. Definitely more of a spring and fall scent. Cozy af, it's perfect for around the house any time of year.

First impression: this smells really nice and comforting right away. It has a soft, warm quality that somehow reminds me of a baby. You can clearly pick up the rice note, and the creaminess gives it a smooth, milky warmth. Overall it feels cozy, gentle, and very comforting on the skin.

It's very unique and different then what I usually enjoy, after getting match latte and loving it I had to try this one as well. It starts out very nutty but then it becomes more milky and smoth.the rice note is very special.the florals are gentle and well balanced with the musk.

This smells exactly like the notes desrcribe. Slightly sweet, slightly fresh, ricey..? Milky and nutty. I love it. Very addictive. Only complaints is that is does not last that long on my skin. I have to keep reapplying because I want to keep smelling this delightful fragrance.

I was trying to find a decent mango sticky rice fragrance, and this obviously doesn't have mango thought I might as well give it a try. Kind of reminds me of Horchata with a little less spice. Very creamy and unique, without being too offensive.

This reminds me of a slightly less sweet Bath & Body Works Milk. And I’m here for it because the Milk line is my favorite ever BBW scent. Gulf Orchid Rice Milk layers perfectly with it.

Creamy, nutty, slightly sweet... like warm milk with crushed almonds and a soft floral whisper. Comforting, cozy, almost edible... the scent of staying in bed longer than you should.

A really good comforting scent. Warm and powdery without being sweet. I pick up the same starchy rice note that is in L'Eau Papier and powderiness in Kenzo Amour. Very cozy.

this makes my eyes roll back in my head.

soft, warm fragrance -- a must try!

I truly feel like with lactonic fragrances, you’re either blessed... or you’re not. On some skin, they bloom into this sweet, buttery creamy clouds and on others, they can turn sour or slightly acidic. Luckily, my skin loves them. Rice Milk is a lactonic gourmand , it melts into my skin in the softest, most feminine way. In the air, it opens like warm, steaming sweet rice almost like sticky jasmine rice it’s starchy, but gently sugared. As it settles, that sweetness turns into a delicate, powdery, baby-soft scent that instantly took me back to high school... when I was obsessed with Gwen Stefani Harajuku Lovers Baby perfume. That same innocent girly, comforting aura. I’ve been yearning for a nostalgic scent like this . What makes this one stand out to me is the feeling of it. Most skin scents feel warm and cozy, but this one feels cool on the skin, like a milky toner on a freshly cleansed face. Light, airy, soft .... There’s also a gentle floral presence floating through it like jasmine, lily of the valley, it smells like petals...and instead of a traditional rosy floral sweetness, this floral leans more like white roses just clean, sheer, and ethereal rather than pink and sugary. It’s very ‘clean girl,’ meets “garden girl” but she’s not boring. She stays on my skin all day !! 7+ hrs with body oil applied and for it to be a skin scent, it is very radiant but in a soft, gentle non-offensive way....sometimes I’ll spray this on my sheets because it just has that soft angelic gourmand sensation that pulls you in ! this just makes me want to fall sleep on a little rice puff cloud with harps playing and birds tweeting in the air.

I did not have high hopes for this, I bought it on sale because the notes interested me and I really wanted to try it. I am so glad I bought it, it is beautiful. I get a pepper note even though there is none listed, it is creamy and comforting, the rice really comes through, as well as sweet vanilla and some musk. I don't get the bergamont but I do get the almond flower. This smells so much more expensive than it is. I have been inhaling my arm since I sprayed it. This is pretty new to me so I can't speak to the longevity etc but I will give it a proper all day wear test tomorrow. I am really happy I got this, it is excellent.

On me, this starts and stays very woody (a couple hours) and then mellows out to a musky skin scent. I've had it for a few weeks now and work it quite a bit and during that time it has not changed the way it performs. I wish it was more ricey for me and was closer to L'eau Papier (I bought it for that reason because I tried L'eau Papier in a Diptyque store once but I just cannot justify the price these days) because I love that scent. I don't mind the way that it smells because the woods it gives off make it more unisex for me. I think you could wear this basically any time of year, day or night.

This reminds me of a Korean rice drink called “Sikhye.” The rice notes are cool, watery, and refreshing! This may be the florals mixed in here giving me a more watery take. It’s not similar to leau papier - that fragrance is way more warm and like the steam off sweet rice buns. This one is more refreshing, sweet, watery, and only slightly powdery or musky. I really like it! It doesn’t project strongly so I’ve been over spraying. Unsure of longevity - need to try it longer. A strong like- but doesn’t replace my leau papier for its cozy warmth.

The first impression reminds me of the lipstick smell that my mom used to carry in her bag a long time ago. A delicate fragrance, mild, warm, like the embrace of a fragrant cloud. All the notes intertwine and they do it very well, perfectly. Perfect perfume if you work in some sensitive places where the smell should not be expressive, too strong, too intense. This is a fragrance that can be worn to the workplace and enjoyed by everyone. A real little light cloud.

This is my second review of this one - sorry! I have had it for 6 weeks now and it is literally L'eau Papier on my skin. I have both and if I spray one on each arm I cannot tell the difference. This has changed so much in 6 weeks. I loved it from the start despite getting a pepper note (which is now gone...) What beautiful fragrance that really just needed to rest before it was amazing. I am thrilled with this purchase.
