Jasmine Macarons

This is one of those scents that flies under the radar. Which is a shame, because it’s gorgeous. The opening smells a bit off- the Jasmine comes off sharp, and there is weird note that doesn’t seem to mesh. Almost smells like the fragrance is unfinished, missing something, or not properly macerated. Then, after about 10-15mins it melds together into a beautiful, deep, and decadent composition. It becomes harmonious It’s really like nothing I’ve ever smelled before. When you try this, please don’t disregard it at first spray, because those first sprays don’t it do this fragrance justice, and you’ll miss out on the beauty of it. It’s intoxicating. It’s gourmand for sure, but the floral notes keep it from smelling solely like a piece of baking. It smells sweet and rich, but is not syrupy sweet, and for me it is not headache inducing (I’m looking at you La Vie Est Belle). It’s unique, but would be mass appealing if it ever gained popularity like other niche houses. I don’t find it polarizing. I loooove Jasmine so my review might be biased. If you don’t love Jasmine, I still recommend that you try this. You can purchase a 1ml sample on her website. It’s also really affordable, and a little goes a long way.

Easily my favorite from Kyse, closely followed by Cocco alla Vaniglia and Praline au Caramel! It projects really well on me, I was wearing a sample of this when I got in a car with three of my friends and they (all wearing masks) told me I smelled really good. Without knowing any of the notes, they said it smelled like a popcorn jelly bean, but to me it smells like a very buttery sugar cookie and full bodied white florals that is just shy of indolic. Love this offering as a not straight-foody scent from Kyse!

I get the jasmine, whipped cream, burnt sugar and sandalwood the most on my skin. This is absolutely beautiful. I love jasmine and gourmands so it's a win/win for me. This smells how I'd imagine a jasmine and vanilla flavored ice cream would be. I've loved almost every Kyse fragrance I've tried so far and I've tried about half of them. The ones I didn't love, I did at least like. None of them smelled bad to me. But some aren't fb worthy. This one IS! It'll be my next 60ml purchase from them.

I got a sample of this as soon as it came out and, omg, it’s incredible! Big, skanky indolic jasmine mixed with the most edible vanilla cookie and a very subtle, barely there spice. It’s delicious and sexy! My husband came home from work and said I smelled amazing and nuzzled my neck. He told me to by a bottle of whatever it was. I’m loving the skank with the hyper sweetness. Great combo!

This fragrance is absolutely narcotic. It smells like a love potion: indolic, sugary, milky, and it reminds me of something so familiar but I just can't place what it is. Perhaps dogwood and magnolia flowers blooming in the summer heat? The scent doesn't really remind me of macarons or really any kind of food; it's decidedly gourmand but smells closer to human skin than it does to food.
