Walk On Air Sunshine

Ever have a perfume that is so good to your nose that you almost can't stand it? Like a pleasure that is too good to bear? Yup. That is this perfume for me. It smells identical to Pantene shampoo from the 1980s until it was reformulated in 1999 to a peachy, sweet scent. I mean identical. I loved the smell of the glorious, creamy, white shampoo with the simple white labels so much that I'd sniff it every time I went in the bathroom. I went through massive family sized bottles of it. Then it...changed. Cue screaming. For years I fantasized about that stuff. I didn't even have the slightest idea what notes it contained. In December 2017 I went Christmas shopping at Ulta and of course I headed for the perfume area. Hmmm, what to try on? I applied the rollerball of this and didn't expect much honestly. I am picky with department store scents. In the car I smelled something amazing and nostalgic. It was my wrist! I figured it out upon getting a sample and now I desperately need a 3.4 bottle or 3. Yes, it's discontinued. Ahhh, that creamy, deep, clean floral of yesteryear. I think of The Spice Girls, smoky college parties, flirtatious smiles, and my youth. Extraordinary scent to me. Never imagined I'd find an exact dupe to Pantene OG!

Such a pretty fragrance! The drydown on this is so good! It has an oak moss quality to it. Not shown in the note breakdown, but that's what I smell in the dry down! :) Nice!

This is exactly what it says "sunshine" it's impossible to have a bad day wearing his! It is quite citrusy and sweet as well. Love the scent, just wish it projected better.

The bergamot comes off as very lemony, which does conjure the image of sunshine. Ultimately a little pickle-scented to my nose. Not my favorite.

Yes, it's yellow in scent feel, but that's the best I can say for this one. Initial smell is similar to my mom's old bottle of Sunflowers, which I always found "staticky" and made my nose itch. Half an hour later, zero sillage or longevity, which was good for me since I found this to be such a scrubber. I really like the original Walk on Air, which is so fresh and clean ... Sunshine is not.
