GIGGLEPUFF

I read the reviews here and was inspired to write my first, as I don't think anyone has captured this acurately to my nose yet. I never thought I'd fall for a lemon fragrance, but Gigglepuff changed my mind completely. The opening is a revelation: a fancy, sunlit Italian lemon that feels luxurious and joyful and absolutely nothing like a cleaning product. It’s bright, elegant, and classy. If you don't like lemon, and don't mind waiting a moment, of course it disappears. I wouldn't avoid this if you are avoiding lemon, but love vanilla caramel gourmands. Then comes the dry down, and it’s magic. A warm, indulgent caramel-vanilla gourmand that feels like being wrapped in a soft, golden cloud. It’s sweet without being cloying, comforting without being dull. The entire evolution from citrus sparkle to edible warmth is truly beautiful - a real journey, and I think the interesting lemon is what makes it feel so nonlinear and fun. To me, the white florals listed don't stand out particularly or individually, but I do get a more complex and interesting yet smooth vanilla. What surprises me most is the projection. I often feel like it wears close to the skin after a few hours, but I consistently get compliments from people behind counters (people not even standing next to me), so clearly, it's doing more work than I think. There's power here. Gigglepuff pushed my perfume journey forward. It made me reconsider entire categories of scent with lemon I thought I disliked, and reminded me why I love fragrance as an experience. It's fun, beautiful, and unexpectedly transformative. I haven't smelled the original Hufflepuff, so I can't comment on the similarities, but I will say I don't feel the need to try it now. This itch is thoroughly and happily scratched. Especially considering she-who-must-not-be-named could get a financial kickback that I'm not interested in giving her (I'm not sure if she benefits from the House of Sillage Hufflepuff, but it seems officially licensed). Gosh, Gigglepuff is also political. What a bombshell she is! FYI - I ordered my bottle from the brand directly, as I couldn't find it here in the UK (I think it was sold out at the time), and it took maybe 2-3 weeks to arrive, and didn't get stuck in customs. So if it's sold out where you are and they ship to you, you could consider that (also they have some interesting and cheap fragrance oils for gourmand lovers). edit to say: this was great out of the bottle, even better a week, and after a few months, it's amazing. I can now detect the peach, though its beautifully blended into the very smooth composition, it definitely elevates the whole thing.

I have so many perfumes, but I've only had this one for a short period, and it already has a serious dent in it. I like it so much that I went back and purchased Hallopuff, which is the complimentary attar that goes with it. I will admit that the opening notes are not pure love, because the coconut note comes across as awkward. I've noticed that many ME fragrances substitute coconut milk for traditional dairy-based lactonic notes that are often used in Western perfumery. However, the current coconut aldehyde used to replicate coconut is very waxy/fatty, which can communicate a glue note rather than the lush, hydrating coconut note typically associated with it. Those opening notes only last for about 15-20 minutes, and it's not bad, just not as great as it could be. Once the opening notes have dissipated, it becomes this rich buttery lemon cookie fragrance. I also own Devotion by D&G. Devotion is a different take on the lemon gourmand. It's a lemon streusel made with full-cream pana cotta and candied bits of lemon zest in a lemon-basil jam. In contrast, Gigglepuff is a full-fat buttery lemon shortbread cookie that coats the tongue with buttery velvety softness with a slight tart bite of lemon citrus. I've been wearing it a great deal. Bonus Play: At times, I layer it over Hermes Caleche EDT, and the backdrop becomes the perfect magical holiday backdrop to the season, reminiscent of bright lights, sweet treats, and that soul warmth that comes from cozy times with loved ones and hopeful expectations for the new year to come.

This smells so good! I cannot get over how lovely this is. I honestly had a few blind buys that I thought would be better than this. Now I see why this was talked about so much. It really is that good, I also got the attar to go with it. This opens with citrus it's not super strong nor do I get much coconut. Maybe it's coconut cream either way it's divine. The floral in this smells so good with all the vanilla. The best part of this is the dry down for me. The vanilla bean, musk, and caramel omgosh they smell so good. This is one of those scents where I keep smelling my wrist. This lasts a long time about 6 plus hours if not longer. Also stays a long time on my clothes. Sillage is moderate but that's fine with me. This is an amazing fragrance that I'm so happy with. I have majorly hyped scents but they don't compare to this. I think I could wear this year round. And I will I love it so much. This was the scent I got where I thought I'd like it but wouldn't love it. No this I adore and highly recommend. Best blind buy in a long time. Also great price for how good it is.

It smells sooooooooooo good. It's just a sweet and creamy gourmand, not cloying, a little citrusy but in a candied way, not a sour or sharp citrus. It's like a citrusy butterbeer fragrance. I get the similarities to Pink Blush (and probably YBM as well), but without the strawberries, so if you have that, you will probably love this. It's a layering fragrance, so you will want to pair it with something that has similar notes or that can go together to form a hybrid. I love layering it with Black Opium LP and Crumb Couture for a yummy cozy sitting in a coffee shop while eating a blueberry jam slathered croissant hehe, you get the picture. Definitely grab this, it's REALLY good! You can wear any time of year day or night since it's a lighter, layering fragrance to enhance your gourmands or add a gourmand spin to other fragrance categories.

This is everything I hoped it would be 🥰 🍑 🥥🍋🧁🌞 Absolutely gorgeous creamy, sweet peach and coconutty scent with some freshness from the lemon and delicious sweetness from the vanilla and caramel. It immediately feels like summer - the perfect scent for balmy summer date nights. The perfect summer vacation scent 🏖 summer nostalgia 😍 It doesn't go full tropical - which I love. The peach is stunning in this and the first time I've actually experienced peach shining in a perfume throughout the dry down 🍑 ✨️ An immediate yes for me and a full bottle will definitely be in my future for the warmer weather. I do think its wearable all year round regardless - it's just that it conjurs up warm, sandy summer days - fresh fruit, creamy coconut lotions and sweet treats after a long hot day and I bet the heat will magnify its projection 🌞 Adore 🥰

This, this, this! I fell in love with this from the minute I got it. Now I have 2 bottles (had to get a backup) and the first bottle is almost 3 months old. It has bloomed from really nice to so yummy I can't stand it. I have not smelled the OG because I can't afford to get my nose near enough to a bottle. This one assures me that I am not missing anything. This is sweet but not cloying. I didn't understand where the juicyness was coming from at first, then I saw that peach note. Yep, that's it. And unlike my other gourmand scents, this one dries down very nicely without changing too much. I wear this with the Hallopuff oil now and... Child! It's just an amazing scent. (@Ddskyblue - Yasss! I think we were the first rooting so hard to get this one on here! )

I don’t know what Hufflepuff smells like...and honestly, I don't care to find out. Gigglepuff has completely stolen the show. It’s a dreamy, creamy cloud of citrus and coconut, with soft florals gently humming in the background. The gourmand notes take center stage: fluffy, sweet, and utterly delectable without being overdone. I’ve been enjoying a 5ml sample, and let me tell you I’m so ready for the full size. It was love at first spray and has stayed consistently beautiful every time I’ve worn it. Sillage sits at about arm’s length, and I get a solid 5–6 hours of wear, honestly impressive for the price point. Gigglepuff is playful, cozy, and just sparkly enough to feel magical. A total win in my book.

Compliment magnet somehow?! Worth at last getting a sample.. I was not expecting the mass demographic appeal compliments - 95 year old grampa, my 66 mother stole a decant, younger 35 year old brother, little nephew 4, friends 40s , coworkers 30s.... This is a warm, sugared baked good but still a wearable perfume. Some gourmands are a little thick but this pings around light vanillas lemon, warmth, large sugar crystals, smooth coconut, gentle stone fruits. This is a unique scent style that is pretty great. No issues with longevity or projection. Cold weather slows molecules so maybe people are just getting hit with science. I live in the south so unaffected so far 🥳

Ok I own almost everything this gets compared to, so here is my take: Gigglepuff is a super light and sweet lemon marshmallow scent. It’s fluffy and airy, not syrupy or deep like Devotion. It smells like Mochi Milk with lemon instead of peach. Nothing like Soft by Al Rehab which I found to be awful (lemon cleaning products mixed with Pink Sugar). Doesn’t smell like YBM at all, but I suppose the vibe they give off is similar. It’s cousins with Empire Victor, but EV is less sweet, less lemony, and more just a creamy vanilla with a hint of lemon. Gigglepuff is perfect for a playful spring/summer day! Easy reach, non offensive. A happy, bright pick-me-up in a bottle!

If you’re deciding between this and Empire Victor just know they smell completely different to me. Same category kinda but not similar at all. To my nose this smells like Yum Boujee Marshmallow by Kayali just without the strawberry note. Gigglepuff is giving orange creamsicle with a lot of marshmallow. It’s smells like the carnival to me. It’s so good I already have a backup bottle on the way lol. It is a lighter fragrance but that doesn’t mean it’s weak. I can still smell it on me hours later and I’ve gotten compliments way after spraying. For the price you really can’t beat the quality.

It’s been a while since I was absolutely blown away by a perfume! This one reminds me so much of Cirque du Soleil (my beloved) minus the butteriness and the sandalwood. I’ve actually found myself reaching for Gigglepuff far more often than any other perfume recently, which is awesome because the price cannot be beat. Layers beautifully with Cirque and also with Boardwalk Delight. If you’re on the fence about this one, just go for it! It’s spectacular!

This is gorgeous and an easy reach. I’ve had a decant of this in my collection for a while and for some reason haven’t reached for it. Tonight I fancied something different so decided to have a little spray before bed and I fell a little bit in love. It’s a lovely sweet fragrance suitable for any occasion. The price makes it even more attractive I can see me reaching for this regularly and upgrading to a full bottle.

This is something I wouldn't have blind bought based on the notes as I dont tend to go for citrus or gourmand scents, but after receiving a sample from a friend I immediately bought a bottle. This is reallyyyy good!! A gorgeous blend of vanilla, caramel, citrus and peach. Its such an uplifting feelgood scent which is lovely for summer.

I fell in love this Gigglepuff at first sniff. In fact I immediately ordered a backup the day I received it. It’s a rich buttery fragrance. It has moderate longevity and sillage. To help the perfume project more, I use Plus One by Oakcha. It’s a fragrance enhancer that contains Ambroxan. Great blind buy

Beautiful light gourmand. The lemon is not in your face (it was a blind buy, when I read the notes I thought the lemon would be super present). It’s somewhere in the background behind vanilla. The perfume is sweet, and not sweete and sour. Love it, cannot see myself paying 350 eur for the OG Hufflepuff

Finally it got listed here! This is THE BEST 😍 I overspray because I’m crazy about this fragrance and every time I wear it I’m complimented by every single person I see lol It’s sweet lemony/coconut/vanilla but blended to perfection. Oh and it lasts days on clothes.

This scent is one of my favourites. The vanilla and Italian lemon is just so good! However, it lasts about as long as a fart in a tornado. I’ve had it on right now for about 45 mins and it’s just to say there, even on clothes. Which makes me very sad.

This is literally the perfume of my dreams. It's soooo good!!! I wear it on it's own or layer it with Genzee Marshmallow & Latte Abyad from the same brand for my signature scent. It's gorgeous! Not screechy to my nose at all and well blended. 10/10

This is delicious! For me it opens with coconut caramel and peach skin, a floats in to a Yum bougie type marshmallow fragrance! This lasts on my skin and projects but I moisturize before I apply fragrance. Its a steal on tiktok shop.

@Ddskyblue - Yasss! I think we were the first rooting so hard to get this one on here! I loved it until I found Empire and... I am not only cheating with Empire, I have completely left the relationship and married Empire! 😂
