Golden Praline Bliss

Difícil de describir, me fascinó y creo que de mi colección tubbees es mi segundo favorito. Su salida es curiosa y me recuerda a tortillas de maíz con vainilla, pero después la mandarina y las moras acarameladas flotan todo el tiempo junto con un caramelo estilo cajeta y una vainilla atacada. No recomiendo comprar a ciegas, si te gusta lo dulce y raro te va a gustar.

This is my second fav tubbees fragrance. It really smells like butter with praline on top, literally. Long lasting and more masculine. Very unique and bitter. Not a safe blind buy.

Its crazy delicious. Its sweet and young praline. I can definitely smell caramel, good for me not so much chocolate cause I don’t like it as a smell.

Golden Praline Bliss feels very much in the same family as its Tubbees sibling, Sweet Caramel, with little echoes of SDJ 71 and Paris Corner Molten Caramel peeking through. To me, it stands out as one of the most gourmand scents in the Tubbees in the Tub lineup, which IMHO leans fruity-sweet, making it a real treat if you love richer, dessert-style fragrances. The opening is honestly gorgeous: a lush, creamy caramel that feels almost drinkable - milky, smooth and indulgent in the best way. It immediately gives that comforting, wrapped-in-sugar warmth. As it settles, it shifts into something a bit more grounded, slightly earthy, softly powdery and with a subtle chocolate nuance that adds depth. It does lose some of that initial sugary “wow” factor but it becomes more nuanced and wearable, which I can appreciate. That said, if you’re after a purely gooey, buttery caramel bomb, Sweet Caramel might still edge ahead. Golden Praline Bliss leans a touch more mature in the dry down, thanks to that powdery chocolate accord, which I personally find interesting, though I can see it being a bit divisive. Projection is very strong, especially in the opening. It definitely makes an entrance. Two sprays are more than enough and anything beyond that might overwhelm a room. It’s bold, confident and doesn’t hold back. In terms of longevity, like most other Tubbees scents, it sits around a moderate 1-2 hours before becoming more of a skin scent. But honestly, for the price point and the vibe, that feels fair and shouldn't be judged like other niche gourmands that cost 10-20 times more. Let's be realistic, these fragrances are clearly designed to be fun, indulgent and easy to enjoy without overthinking and Golden Praline Bliss certainly delivers on that sweet, playful experience.

The notes and description listed here are incomplete. According to the website: Top notes: Brown sugar, Praline, Buttery, Mandarin, Nut Middle notes: Blackberry, Creamy, Vanilla Base notes: Powdery, Tonka, Vanilla "The warm, comforting aroma of golden pralines cooking on the stove. Buttery brown sugar and rich nuts are swirled with a hint of juicy mandarin and blackberry, creating a deeply creamy, sweet, and addictive gourmand fragrance." So if you’re looking for just pure praline, bear in mind this has additional notes.

Smelled this today at Winners. Seems to be yet another take on the Biancco Latte or Cheirosa '71 DNA. It's a very nice caramel but if you already have a caramel Gourmand or 5 in your collection this is redundant. I get it Biancco Latte and Cheirosa 71 are popular scent profiles for a reason but there are so many dupes to choose from already, time to stop beating a dead horse.

As someone who used to work at a snack counter, this smells *EXACTLY* like freshly made warm sugared almonds!
