Angel Eau Sucree 2015

I am obsessed with gourmands. If it smells good enough to eat/drink, it's perfect for me. The only Mugler I like is Alien Essence Absolue. And I hated Angel EDP and EDT. The notes sound so delicious but the patchouli is just way too strong. Angel smells like sweaty armpits on me. But it smells amazing on my co-worker! I love Angel Sucree, I just blind bought the 2015 version because of a good price, and the notes/reviews. The opening is crazy freaky... minty and oily and plastic... but that goes away. Then it smells just like Tresor La Nuit to me. Then I get patchouli and cookies... which reminds me of Flowerbomb EDP, and then the drydown smells just like the way Angel smells on my coworker. I love it! But-- I can't really smell it on me, and I applied about 8 sprays this morning... over the course of 1-2 hours. It's def not a Mugler powerhouse, even as an EDT- Mugler knows how to clear a room. But it's like Flowerbomb EDP.... not as potent to ME as other people claim, however I do catch whiffs of it throughout the day. Soft sweet airy whiffs of delicious awesome. So I still think this blind buy was a WIN. Sometimes a quality frag means it becomes one with your body/skin and you radiate the scent rather than wear it. It becomes a lovely aura around you, rather than just sit on skin/clothes. I think that is the case here. The next best price on ebay were the 2014 versions, so I snagged that too. Some people say the 2014 is stronger? Even if it's the same exact scent, I will be so happy to have a backup anyways. It's weird that I get such lovely whiffs, but if I huff my shirt (where I sprayed) my shirt smells like mildew-y damp clothing, and that is not the case. This shirt is totally clean, haha. Unlike others, I really don't get overpowering berry. I can detect the lemon-cream-caramel pie, but overall it's just a very airy sweet foodie cuddly scent. I agree the patch just "grounds" the scent rather than overpowers. Which is probably why I love it. I've gotten used to patch in almost everything- and I quite enjoy it in Black Opium, I Heart New York for Her by Bond, Tresor La Nuit, etc.... except that damn original Angel. ;) I also find that Chopard Wish is very much like Angel on me, and does not work. :(

I scored big time with this one! I recently purchased a batch of half-filled testers. This one came in a bunch with two bottles 1/4 full of L'imperatrice original formulation, concentree d' Orange verte and a "partial" of Chance Eau Vive that turned out to be a full bottle. Many shops are going out of business in my country thanks to the economic downturn the government has caused, sucks but I am getting my grubby little hands on many fragrances I would have never been able to purchase otherwise. I have never owned any iteration of Angel Eau Sucree before, so I was pleasantly surprised with this one, I have tracked down mine to be a 2015 formula, Its not an incredibly complicated fragrance but It does have a lot of nuance. I am the one to shit on flankers but I have never found a Mugler flanker I wholeheartedly dislike, I went to shittin on em to try and purchase as many Vintages possible for my collection 🤡 The opening is ripe red berries, super savory, zesty yet so fresh they are almost minty (I Guess that would be the sorbet note). Smells tropical, kinda makes you wonder if there is also mango and pinneaple thrown in there for good measure. It's all I wanted Nova to smell like. The surprise is that the patch here is super dialed down from original Angel so I can actually wear this! The sweet is not super cloying, and the red berries do keep It from feeling like a pure gourmand... Oh but It is! It is a gourmand frag, the middle is this buttery caramel and slightly burnt meringue heart that go hand in hand with the patchouli base and the softest fluffiest powdery-est vanilla. The drydown: when It is sitting close to skin, after all the fruit party has departed and the ethyl maltol has evaporated, smells like literal vanilla cupcakes, the caramel and vamilla give Sucree 2015 a buttery confectionery quality. I'm slightly bummed because this is It, all I have is around 25 mls left, I Will not be able to repurchase, but I will rock the crap Out of it. Out there probably there is a flanker of la vie est Belle that smells somewhat like this plus the patchouli stank that makes me wanna go vom vom, all I have to do is actually find It and not lose my nose on the journey.

Angel has always terrified me. Every time I have sprayed it on a test strip I have been absolutely repulsed. It smelled so awful and strange to me, like grass, candy and motor oil. But when I began to get into fragrance and joined Fragrantica, I began seeing the overwhelming love for Angel and felt like I was missing out. But I just couldn't get myself to ever love it. Until Sucree. I have been reading the reviews of this fragrance for a while and deciding the notes were definitely something I would love. I finally saw Eau Sucree at Macy's yesterday, and of course the bottle was beautiful. I was pulled to it like a magnet and sprayed it on a paper. Not as shocking as Angel, but still rubbed me the wrong way. I was disappointed that i almost couldn't get myself to skin test it, but I was done being afraid and spritzed a generous amount into my arm. And it was INSTANT LOVE. It melted into my skin like sorbet. The sharpness of the initial test was gone, and this scent transformed into something warm, sensual and dreamy. Whipped cream is definitely the main charm of Eau Sucree, along with juicy berries and some strong patchouli. It's sweet, but at the same time earthy and quite unique. The rest of the day consisted of me caressing my nose with my arm and flying away into fragrance paradise. I can't stop thinking about it. It's so lovely. *** sillage: heavy longevity: VERY long lasting

People, if you're into gourmands - get your hands on this! :) It starts off with sweet, tart red berries (smells most of red currants to my nose) and it's pretty zesty the first few minutes. After that, in comes the meringue and caramel yumminess that puts the whole composition together for me. The patchouli isn't harsh or too earthy (dirty), but it simply grounds it a little bit and keeps it from being sickly. It is fresh enough to be worn during summer and summer nights, but I also think it will do a good job during fall/winter as well. I preferably wear it during nighttime for some reason (sometimes I find it just a little bit too sweet on hot, sunny days - not cloying though!) but it could easily be worn during daytime if you wanted to. Longevity is decent too. I can still smell it on clothing and in my hair the morning after wearing it. Here the other day a male friend of ours visited. His comment when he arrived was: "Oh man, something in here smells amazing" (and I had just doused myself in Angel Eau Sucree). I also have to add that I'm not a big fan of the original Angel because it doesn't sit right on my skin, but this version I LUV! <3

I know that I've already written about it,but now I know that my friend's sample was about previous year's version(light blue bottle).as soon as I saw 2015 version in a perfume shop I grabbed it.I thought sucree 2014 was so delicious,so how much pretty 2015 is going to be with more gourmand notes.I know it's a childish conclusion but it turned out to be right.they're very similar but 2015 is a tad sweeter and more buttery.I'm a gourmand lover so I'm always looking for them and I have to confess angel sucree is among my top ten gourmands.and I still believe it's more a fall scent than a summery one highly recommended to all gourmand lovers.this one and angel muse are so delicious that made me change my idea about the whole angel line I'm thankful that it matches with my skin chemistry and I can't get anything medicinal or sharp here,just edgeless sweet,caramelized goodness with very good projection without being cloying it happens very rare for me to repurchase a perfume,but I know I have to stock it and make sure that I'll never run out of it.I want to bath in this melted deliciousness forever scent:10/10 bottle:10/10 longevity and sillage:8/10
