Sweet Celestials

It strikes the balance between gourmand and fresh. Alot of reviews claim it’s super gourmand, but on me it’s also very floral. The pandan note is very green in the opening, like photorealistic green where you are ripping up a pandan leaf. Dissipates quickly. You’re left with an aromatic floral with a super sweet creamy coconut. Can’t distinguish the mung bean or rice flower in this, I’m sure it adds to creamy almost waxy aroma. It’s interesting the florals are distinct, i picture a beautiful south East Asian woman smelling like this and wearing traditional clothes with holding a flower garland. (im thai) It’s nice but it’s a bit intense every time you spray it, it’s not a pleasant experience in the beginning, I love the dry down and smelling this on my clothes the next day. But I almost dread spraying this on because how insanely suffocating the opening is.

Wow! I love this. Forgive my American take on this but I’ve never been to Thailand & my only experience of Thai culture is in a Thai restaurant. But, this reminds me of walking into a Thai restaurant and being served a Thai curry dish (it doesn’t smell like curry. It smells like that dish minus the curry). I love the combination of sweet creamy coconut base, the savory rice, lemongrass, the floral, green freshness, mixed with spices. There’s this mild banana twinge to this fragrance that is appealing I find in Thai cuisine as well.This is all all of that experience in a fragrance. It is a bit savory in that I can smell the rice. It’s really very pretty. I would 100% buy a large bottle of this. 30 mL isn’t going to cut it. I’d really like a 100 mL bottle.

so nostalgic and everything i hoped it to be and more !! this could be seen as not so great to people who i think aren't used to the savory rice w/palm sugar element. but i also think a ton of people who are familiar with the scent profile try it out but then soon realize yeah no they don't want to smell like straight up nab vam or khanom once they put it on (which i totally get, my mom was super repulsed when she smelt a dab of it but she loves all the food reminiscent of it). NOT SAYING ANY OF THAT TO DETOUR YOU THOUGH I THINK IT'S STILL WORTH TRYING. nostalgia aside, it's a wonderfully sweet, playful coconut sticky rice aroma w/hints of nuttiness. i love her!!! and i'm looking forward to sampling more from this house!!

So addicted to this it’s crazy.. have acquired a few different full size perfumes lately and while I love them all this is the only one I’m literally huffing the remnants of off my sleeve the next day. My favorite is how it smells after around 30 minutes. The grassiness and bite of the coconut fades a little and I start smelling the mung bean... one of my favorite dessert ingredients and it smells so creamy delicious and comforting. This has great longevity especially for this type of fragrance in my experience. The 30ml bottle is so cute but I hope they will make more sizes eventually! This is theeeee gourmand-y perfume I will be reaching for ... at least until I find something I like with black sesame or taro :)

I try to be objective and informative in my reviews because people have wildly different preferences and it can be exceptionally difficult to decide what fragrances to try — especially when you’re shopping online. That said: THIS IS GOOD SHIT (unless you hate coconut, in which case this is AWFUL SHIT). I can’t stop smelling my wrists — Sweet Celestials is photorealistic coconut sticky rice with an occasional whiff of light, white floral. I’m not a floral gal, but this is just enough to smell pretty without turning me off. I suspect many people with a wide variety of tastes will enjoy this fragrance, and I highly recommend giving it a shot!
