Sweet Treats Ella

This was the first fragrance I ever bought before I even discovered my love for perfumes! It was stolen at some party, but when I found it again online all these years later, I realised that this is a scent that I can't be without! It opens like biting into the sweetest blackberry before becoming woody jasmine that's freshened by the rose and tang of the orange blossom. It's sweet but in a floral way, not in a gourmand way. That translucency allows it to be worn all year round, but best in warmer weather. It's simple, feminine, elegant but youthful, a cozy powderiness balanced with delightful sweetness <3

Oooh, easy to love. I've had a few blind-buy duds recently, but Ella is a real winner. She is nice and dry, with plenty of cassis and patchouli. Vintage lovers will appreciate this one. Maya by Tocca comes to mind. No sugary notes here, but Ella is still a sweet treat!

Blind bought this for $8 at TJMaxx. I don’t feel like I was ripped off. My nose smells the bergamot, cassis, and sandalwood the most, making it feel unisex from first sniff. Then the rose starts to come through, but it’s never in your face or overly feminine. I don’t smell orange blossom, jasmine, amber, or vanilla. They may be giving a slight sweetness and gentle soapiness, but I can’t pick them out. Also, this is not a sweet perfume. More of a fresh woody, slightly rosy soap scent. Clean and pleasant. Seems to need warm skin to really show its beauty. Overall, it was a good purchase, not great, not one of my favorites, and it may end up in the give away pile. Sweet for the price, just don’t expect a sweet treat. Edit: Oh, and I do get the patchouli. Let my husband sniff. He thinks it teeters on unisex also. He’s going to give it a go before I give it away.

This was my lucky buy from January discounts. I had no idea about Ted Baker perfumes, and wasn't expecting much, just checked main notes from fragrantiga and bought it. So I assumed I had white flower office safe something...but lucky me, on my skin this is lovely very spicy orange flower, amber and radiates warmness like my favorite winter juice, Chopard Casmir. Why I'm missing totally white flowers, i don't know. As I tried to find them, so I put on another hand my everyday flower perfume Blanc. Which sadly cannot at all compete with Ella, but now smells like toilet freshener as I smell both 🥴 I don't know how, but this is an amazing perf on my skin, but I can see that it's not for everyone and is spicy without being clearly masculine. I'm happy with this, good skin match for me, but it only last max 2-3 hours on my skin.

Used to own this back in the day... was one of my teenager perfumes despite being quite a mature fragrance for a teenager 😂 It was just so boujee and grown up for me at the time, I wear much more juvenile scents now 😂 I’d love to smell it again just for the nostalgia of it (although only the old formulation). Remember it not being for everyone, but really enjoying it. Very much night out, deep, dark as others said scents. Definitely wouldn’t be a crowd pleaser but had something endearing about it. A powerful fragrance for sure
