Miel Bébé

Got a strip-sample of this with several other fragrances from this brand, and this one... I hope it's not deceiving me because it's a paper tester, but I'm getting that lovely magazine-page scent that I so adore! None of the other scents have this note despite being on the same paper, so I'm crossing my fingers that it's all from the perfume itself. Definitely will be purchasing this, can't stop sniffing my arm lol. Desperately hoping it will smell the same from the bottle! edit: got my bottle today and I'm so relieved to love it! And so happy to have gotten the discontinued 2.5oz size, as this is a scent I no doubt want a big bottle of. This reads as a floral to me, but a very unique one. It's flowery in a syrupy, warm kind of way. The sweetness of the honey really shines through, and meshes so nicely with the praline. Meanwhile the orange keeps it smelling light and fresh, not too heavy. As far as my goal goes to smell like a perfume sample off of a magazine page, a pretty floral mixed with that lovely paper smell (if you get it, you get it) this might be my closest find so far! No way I'll be able to stop myself from wearing this year round, but I think it'll be especially beautiful in the spring. Don't wanna jump the gun, but I think this might be a new top 5-er for me :)

I absolutely LOVE this perfume, and it has become a staple in my collection - possibly my new signature scent, even! It opens with a bright, crisp note of orange dripping in honey, just sweet and sticky enough to make you think of a spoonful of honey without it becoming sickening. As it dries down on my skin it mellows out, and honestly reminds me of the smell of a newborn baby; no, not a baby doll / baby doll head, but an ACTUAL newborn baby. Subtly sweet; clean, but not soapy; fresh, but not cutting. It's soft and nostalgiac and comforting. When I wear this (which is most days now), I can't help but smile every time I catch a whiff of it. I also think this is a safe fragrance to wear around others, even those who might be a bit sensitive to fragrance, because the drydown is so delicate and inoffensive. It doesn't have tremendous projection, and I find that the longevity depends on how active I have been that day and whether or not I primed my skin with lotion first; but regardless, even if I spray it on myself first thing in the morning, I still can smell the faintest hint of it by bedtime, which just simply makes me happy.

Definitely smells like expensive shampoo, it gives luxury spa freshie, so I get the white tea comparisons but not a gourmand honey. I don’t understand the Gucci Flora comparisons at alllllllll. Been wearing it for less than an hour so I have a feeling the sweetness might flourish after another hour or two. I’m starting to pick it up more as the orange blossom evaporates. This one’s oil based so be careful with your clothing. I’d definitely spray this in my hair and around pulse points. Its a dry-smelling honey which makes it smell a bit more floral and artificial, but not cheap or juvenile. I’m supposed to be on a buying freeze but I might have to sneak a full sized bottle of this one. Its an easy everyday wear, inoffensive, and I work in healthcare so that should speak volumes about it not being too saccharine. I love a good santal frag and this one hits the mark. Even though I expected more sticky-sweet-dessert honey. I’m not mad at this floral take either.

this caught my eye at the Ulta checkout line and i decided to give it a go on my wrist. SO happy i did! :) this smells nectary, pretty like soft flower petals, and just delish. perfect for casual day time / office wear. its fresh without being overly sharp (i find a lot of "fresh" scents quite screechy and even head-ache inducing). think if Marc Jacobs Daisy + Honey had the perfect love child. <333 i used to love those 2 frags back in middle school, but re-visiting them as an adult, i sadly found a cheapy metallic element that i could not get behind. Miel Bebe makes up for that disappointment with its almost creamy composition, and reminds me that growing up is just reimagining the things you loved long ago. it doesnt last very long, but for the beautiful price point of $28, i will be picking up a bottle righttt after work next payday.*~

I found this at Marshall’s and I fell in immediate love. I couldn’t stop sniffing it as I strolled around. On me, it smells like golden honey and juicy orange. The sandalwood sometimes comes through after it’s dried down, but the sweetness curbs the pickle smell. This fragrance is heavenly and sweet but not syrupy. It’s somewhat jammy but I love that. I feels like this is great for most weather and is great for day but could be worn in the evening maybe layered with something moodier. This has a nice soft projection and lasts quite awhile on me. In my job, I get sweaty and I work with animals. I could still smell this on my scrubs after my shift with no reapplications. I may get a backup bottle if I see anymore while out.
