Crème Brûlée

Just picked this perfume up from Marshalls earlier today. It was cheap...why not. Plus, the notes look so yummy!! Testing: Oh wow....This is quite powdery! Definitely the powderiest fragrance that I currently own! Not a bad thing...it's soft and sweetly vanillic. This feels like an older fragrance...from the 60s...I really like this!! Thats wild....I have an aromachemical that smells like "Baby Powder" but I don't like it...THIS is the kind of "Powder" that I like!!! Mature...classy...sophisticated...regal even!! This smells like what a queens Royal wig would smell like from the medieval days! UPDATE: I wore this tonight as a base layer with "Juicy Couture" layered on top for a church music event I played at. I put on everything around 1730 and its 2238 right now and I'm still radiating this amazing fragrance combo!! Let me tell you.....I got sooooo many compliments tonight!!!! From guys, women, kids...everyone! I N-E-V-E-R , in a million years , would have E-V-E-R thought that a powdery fragrance could/would last this long!!!! Both "Noir Extreme" and "Musc Ragaveur" lasted about 45 minutes on me when I had them and I had to carry a huge decant with me just to smell either of those two (which I got rid of both...they sucked). Tonight I carried around a 3ml sprayer with the combo in it and I never even needed to use it. I gave it to the piano player because he said he could hardly concentrate because I smelled so good! I'm going back to Marshalls tomorrow at lunch to pick up a second bottle of this powder-heaven fragrance! This stuff is friggin A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

this is the first perfume of which ive actually almost hit pan. actually wait britney's midnight fantasy duo ball might beat that but ive had that one since like, 3rd grade? this is the first perfume ive loved enough to remember to wear everyday. i only bought it 4~ months ago. it makes me feel like a real girl doing pretty decadent things for myself and ive been into putting energy into my vessel like that the past half year. its....sweet, not in a totally innocent way but not overtly flirty, like it says, I know you think im a an explosion of icecream and sex and powderpuffballs and you want it bad and maybe you can get it if youre the type of boy who smiles for no reason, but probably wont get it.,ever. you have to be a little close to be able to smell it on me. the girls love it too--and theyre the ones who exclaim ohmygod you smell so good after i hug them goodbye for the night. all that being said, it doesnt smell like creme bru lee. its not annoyingly syrupy and roasted like that, its something else, akin to the afterthought of a dulce so soft and unassuming it cant really be named. no longer sold in stores so i will be buying again via secondhand on mercari.

I purchased this while rummaging through a Marshall’s at a time when I was purchasing every scent that I could. I took this home and I was “meh.” I regretted my purchase. I still wore it to the gym, just to not waste it. This grew on me substantially. It is not a Crème Burlee scent. It smells like a bubbly, bright, and refreshing cream soda. It’s mildly sweet, has a slightly powdery character, and has excellent performance for the price. It reminds me of Prada Candy, just muted. I consistently got 6 hours of wear with an intimate projection. This is a excellent option for the gym, for a fresh out of the shower scent, or for an evening in and you want something soft. This was not a love at first sniff, but this has earned a place in my collection and has earned a 7/10 rating for me. If you spot this at a discounter I think it’s worth taking a chance on.

I’m baffled at all the people calling this “powdery”. The diaper one made me laugh but I really don’t get that at all either. I get a spicy vanilla - I have PHLUR’s vanilla skin in the perfume, the travel spray, AND the body mist and this crème brûlée reminds me of a cheaper body mist version of it. Very spicy vanilla. Or actually it smells like if commodity milk put out a body mist. Don’t get any powder at all but there is a lactonic quality that maybe people think is powder? I tried this on at TJ maxx and ended up buying it. The cashier complimented me saying “you smell sooo good what is that??” That literally never happens to me so take that for what it’s worth.

This is a strong baby powder -like scent. Nothing more nothing less. For the first few minutes it's just baby powder. Then slowly the baby powder fades into a soft, lactonic scent. And way in the back there is absolutely and most definitely an apricot note that adds a bit of sweetness. It's a beautiful soft skin scent. It smells innocent and warm. If a baby blanket would be a smell thus would be it. The only thing I don't like about this scent is it's name, because it's Ill fitting and it doesn't describe the actual scent of the fragrance. I wouldn't really consider this a gourmand scent. It's a powdery, slightly lactonic fragrance.
