Heavy Cream

Sweet, fluffy, vanilla, lactonic, powdery, warm, creamy, airy, coconut, softly citrusy, feminine, sensual, flirty, charming, whimsical, dreamy, delightful, inviting, cozy, comforting On me this opens sweet and powdery with fluffy marshmallow and just a hint of citrusy and bright lemon and orange. As it starts drying down the creamy coconut and golden warmth of amber intertwine nicely with the marshmallow and citrusy notes. Once it’s fully dried down it grows more lactonic and decadent as you become wrapped in sweet and airy whipped cream, sensual vanilla, and creamy caramel. The notes that are the most prominent on me are the marshmallow, coconut, whipped cream, vanilla, and caramel. I’m a big fan of gourmand scents, and particularly of marshmallow ones, so I absolutely had to get this! It was a blind buy for me, and definitely a successful one! I’ve had this for about a year now, and I still don’t get anything like spoiled milk coming from it. It’s just a really pretty, sweet, and delightful fluffy marshmallow and whipped cream/lactonic vanilla scent. The caramel in this is similar to that in Caramel Skin, so there’s a slightly buttery scent from it, except here it’s much softer. I have had this for about a year now, and have never gotten anything “spoiled”, or “vomit-like” from this. I have several Phlur mists, and really enjoy them: Heavy Cream, Cashmere Skin, Vanilla Nectar, Beach Skin (my favorites), Vanilla Blackberry, Vanilla Skin, Caramel Skin, Coconut Skin, and Vanilla Smoke. I’m looking forward to trying more of them, especially the newest ones! As for the “reminds me” section, I do see some similarities to VS Coconut Passion, Replica Afternoon Delight, SDJ Coco Cabana, and Philosophy Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere. I don’t think it’s particularly similar to Snowflakes & Cashmere, or Gold Sugar, but I can see why someone might be reminded of Gold Sugar (it’s my favorite of the fragrances in the Pink Sugar line, and one that I keep a backup bottle of). For reference, some of my other favorite vanillas and gourmands include Kayali Yum Boujee Marshmallow, Vanilla 28, The Wedding Silk Santal, Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar, Yum Pistachio Gelato, PDM Oriana, Kilian LDBS, Princess, GdT Celeste, Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid, Burberry Goddess, The 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods, YSL Black Opium Le Parfum, Black Opium Glitter, D&G The One Desire, JPG Classique Pin Up, Valentino DBIR Ivory, JHAG Powder Love, Ellis Brooklyn Marshmallows, SDJ Summer é Amor, SDJ 62, SDJ 39, VS Vanilla Lace (OG), BBW Beach Nights, Boardwalk Marshmallow Clouds, Fireside Flurries, Whipped Honey & Vanilla

Sweet, creamy, slightly citrusy, powdery, fluffy, delicious, feminine, sensual, flirty, whimsical, dreamy, yummy, delectable, delightful, cozy, comforting On me I get sweet, fluffy, and sugary marshmallows, a touch of bright and citrusy sugared lemon and orange, creamy coconut, sensual vanilla, airy whipped cream, rich and buttery caramel, and warm golden amber. It’s creamy and delightfully yummy gourmand lovers dream. The notes that are the most prominent on me are marshmallow, vanilla, whipped cream, caramel, and coconut. I’m a big fan of these Phlur mists, and also own Vanilla Skin, Caramel Skin, Beach Skin, Coconut Skin, and Vanilla Smoke. They’re all super good imo, except for Vanilla Smoke. Heavy Cream is actually my favorite though because I’m a big fan of gourmands, particularly ones with marshmallow. I get the same rich and buttery caramel in this as I do in Caramel Skin, but here it’s a much softer version. The coconut is also more creamy and lactonic than anything tropical like in Beach Skin or Coconut Skin I’ve had this for around 6 months now, and I just get a very delightful, super yummy, and creamy lactonic gourmand. It’s never come off as spoiled, even after it’s macerated. I do see at least some similarities with VS Coconut Passion (the most similar imo), SDJ Coco Cabana, Replica Afternoon Delight, Ellis Brooklyn Marshmallows, and Philosophy Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere, all of which I also own. For a little further reference, some of my other favorite marshmallow, and/or vanilla fragrances include Kayali Yum Boujee Marshmallow, Kayali The Wedding Silk Santal, Kayali Vanilla 28, Kayali Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar, Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato, PDM Oriana, Kilian LDBS, Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid, Burberry Goddess, The 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods, SDJ Summer é Amor, SDJ 62, VS Vanilla Lace, BBW Beach Nights, BBW Boardwalk Marshmallow Clouds

Blind buy for me. I've never smelled anything more coconut focused than this. Truly, the name is misleading, this should have been called Coconut is King. The beginning strikes me as a CSP photocopy of Coco Extreme. It's strong for a body mist. The citrus is pretty much invisible. I wish I smelled it, but I don't. The scent contains a floral accent, it smells like Tiare too me, definitely not Jasmine. Slowly some vanilla whipped cream shows up, but the coconut never leaves. The silage is good for a body mist, and so is the lasting powder. Eventually the dry down becomes delicious and more like a coconut ice cream. The dry down is the part that I prefer. I don't know how some people smelled spoiled milk, yogurt, vomit, or anything of the kind. There isn't anything sour in this, at least not on my skin. The presentation is truly hideous, sadly. I don't think I've ever seen such a tactless display of simplicity in a truly ugly manner. A transparent plastic bottle, rounded, not even a nice top, and the liquid inside is watery with a slightly yellow tinge. Need I say more, what it looks like? It's just so ugly, that if I saw it in the store I would never pick it up to smell it. The price is high, $52 plus tax for a 236 ml bottle, but if you like the scent then it's worth it. Overall, I can only recommend it for those that like coconut forward scents, beach scents, tropical sunscreen type of perfumes. Slowly, it's becoming addictive. Who knew. I can't stop smelling myself.

For an entire week after I received this, I smelled nothing but salty buttered popcorn and easy cheese, then one day it miraculously changed for me (only for me, not for a friend who smelled it in both stages, so I don't think the mist itself changed). Now I'm getting the sugar, the orange, the vanilla and cream, with just a hint of saltiness. It smells like buttercream and yes, can smell a bit like yogurt at times, but is overall a pleasant scent and I don't regret the purchase anymore; however, I don't see myself reaching for it as often as Vanilla Skin. I'm slightly scared to wear this in public because I'm not sure who around me is going to perceive it as a salty butter scent. Do NOT blind buy, but if you hate it at first, let it sit for some time and then give it another chance, you may just get lucky like I did. edit: another week later and this is a gorgeous yummy vanilla lactonic scent, the salty, buttery notes are gone and it definitely lives up to its name. this would definitely be cloying in warm weather so proceed with caution. may just be worth a purchase of the full bottle...

So I LOVE THIS! Now hear me out, I don’t actually like to wear this the way you would think. I have found that by itself it’s very meh, sometimes I can smell it, sometimes it’s very faint, sometimes it’s too tangy, othertimes I only get the citrus beginning... basically to me, this is a hot news on its own. BUT layered, this is chef’s kiss! Any perfume or body mist I want to make creamy, a couple of spritz of this changes the entire game. I legit smell all the top notes when I use it for layering AND I’M OBSESSED with making all my perfumes creamy now lol. It’s so so good with body mists you want creamier like Ouai St Barts, Phlur Caramel Skin, SJD62, or to amplify perfumes with a cream base like Oriana, the new Yara, LDBS, devotion, the new Britney Spears flanker, or even to make a sugary creamy vanilla delight mixed with Bianco Latte, Kayali vanilla 28, dua huffletuft white milk. AND i find that when i spray it with some of these longer lasting perfumes, it lasts as long as they do! Highly highly recommend trying to layer this with your existing collection!
