Sweet Addict

This perfume is incredible. Oakcha is incredible. This was the first fragrance I bought from them and I have to say, WOW. Their forumulations are high quality. The lasting power is real. I thought the raves about them were hype via influencers influencing, but it's not. The quality is amazing. They save money via simple packaging which I really like. This perfume in particular is spot on as a dupe, if that matters to you. It also smells like ORIANA by Parfums de Marly, but it's just a gorgeous scent on its own and it just sprays so well and lingers nicely. I think initially, it has a woody opening that goes away after a minute or two. The amount of oil is appreciated! Thank you Oakcha. You are so wonderful for making great perfumes that are VEGAN (yes that matters to some of us) and the prices are amazing during a time when people are living on tight budgets.

I just received a bottle of this today. I am not a huge fan of the opening notes, but as it settles on my skin, I like it a lot more. The sweetness of the marshmallow mixed with the Sensual musky Face notes really smell nice on my skin however, there is no longevity. I do not smell this on my arm for longer than an hour and there is no projection is just on my skin. I’m gonna try it on my daughter and see if it’s any different on her. I just wish that it would project a little bit better and I wish that it lasted longer. Other than that it smells a lot like the original I want to say, almost Identical and I really like it a lot.

This is my favourite Love Don’t be Shy dupe (for now). The sweetness from the marshmallow is very similar to LDBS, but I get very strong florals in the drydown of LDBS that I don’t get in Sweet Addict. That being said, I do get a greenish note that I can only assume is the neroli in Sweet Addict that isn’t as noticeable to me in LDBS, but it’s quite faint and it thankfully fades in 15-30 minutes. I don’t get any pink pepper, bergamot, rose, musk, or civet here. Has minimal sillage and lasts all day.

Not sure why this one gets hate, it’s absolutely beautiful! On the first spray, you do get the pink pepper right away but it goes away almost instantly. On the dry down, it turns into this yummy marshmallow that LDBS is famous for. I agree it’s not an exact dupe, but for the price it cannot be beat if you’re looking for a similar scent profile. Also I don’t get any of the animalistic notes that people are talking about. I highly recommend this perfume if you love gourmand.

Twin sister of LDBS and an amazing long lasting affordable dupe. However you need to let this one dry down, as the initial spray took me back a little bit, it was very peppery and heavy on the florals, it was quite sharp, however the dry down is absolutely incredible. DELICIOUS! It’s the pink powdery fluffy squishy marshmallows that I love from the LDBS perfume. If you can get past the initial spray it’s worth it in my opinion (I have the black bottle)
