not cinnamon chai but sweet and warm nontheless. Do reccomend.

I was originally looking to satisfy my need to smell my cinnamon chai tea wherever I go. This was the only cinnamon fragrance available. While only a yogi oil with cinnamon and cardamom was able to reach this itch and it doesn’t smell exactly like your original cinnamon (neither Ceylon nor cassis) I have quite grown fond of this fragrance. It smells a little synthetic but it’s till refreshing, sweet and warm.

Soft cinnamon candle smell

Smells like a cinnamon bun for a short moment when you first spray it. After drying down, it smells more like a cinnamon fall candle. So if that's what you're looking for and are ok with the longevity and sillage being soft, I would recommend it. If you want an actual cinnamon bun scent, I would not.

If you expect the scent of freshly baked cinnamon rolls at 7:00 AM on your way to work, this is not for you

I had been keeping an eye on the Demeter Fragrance Library for a long time, and their unusual scents piqued my interest. After trying Angel’s Share and other gourmand fragrances, I remembered the ultimate cinnamon scent - the cinnamon roll.

In search of a fragrance that smells just like that, I stumbled upon “Cinnamon Bun.” The name alone made my heart race, and I ordered it immediately. Every day after university, I eagerly opened my mailbox, hoping to finally find the long-awaited package - the perfume bottle I had been searching for my whole life.

But when it finally arrived, the disappointment was great, right from the start. The packaging? A simple white cardboard box with a sticker bearing the name of the perfume. At first, I thought it was a test sample, but no - that was actually the regular packaging.

And the scent? Pure disillusionment. It just smells like cheap cinnamon, maybe a hint of dough. As my friend said: like a cheap cinnamon aroma diffuser. And honestly, that would probably smell better.

Today I went back to my favorite bakery and got my beloved cinnamon roll. The scent reminded me once again that “Cinnamon Bun” was the worst blind buy decision I have ever made.

If you want your room to smell like cheap cinnamon decor, then go for it. But if you’re looking for a perfume that conveys that real “wow effect” of an authentic cinnamon scent, better stay away.

Maybe the other fragrances from this brand are better, but I won’t take the risk. If even this one, which was supposed to be my signature scent, was so disappointing.

Very helpful Review 11

So delicious...!

Damn, it must be Demeter. Damn!
But, it's also my fault. Why did I have to spray Cinnamon Bun, knowing exactly what to expect?

Who has ever been to Ikea? Okay, silly question! But then you know that you can buy coffee and those delicious cinnamon rolls at the exit. And this fragrance smells exactly like those cinnamon rolls. Well, they don't necessarily have to be from Ikea, but since we've been there more often lately and have indulged in that delicious pastry every time, Ikea immediately came to mind.
It really is true that this scent smells incredibly delicious like cinnamon rolls!

The fragrance:
For a fraction of a second, you catch a very light, alcoholic note that disappears extremely quickly. But then, the delicious scent of this cinnamon pastry comes through, so tasty that you would want to lick the spot on your skin where this scent clings. And no, I wouldn't recommend doing that, as it tastes disgusting (I’d better not mention that I might have tried it…). Later, the cinnamon becomes a bit spicier for a short time (it even smells a bit like clove), but that settles down a little later. Overall, this fragrance can very well replicate a delicious cinnamon roll.

The longevity is okay and lasts three hours. That's good and typical for Demeter.
The sillage is quite decent for a Demeter scent, although most fragrances with spicy-sweet notes seem to have a stronger projection. That's a good thing, as the scent smells pleasantly delicious.

The bottle does not match this wonderful fragrance at all, as it is just a little bottle that the scent is filled into. The label is no better, as such fragrances (or all fragrances, for that matter) could be spiced up with a small picture. But as so often, no one thinks of that (or they decide against it for financial reasons…).

Hmm… how I love cinnamon rolls, I could theoretically eat them until I burst (For Simpsons fans: Similar to Homer Simpson, who is forced in hell to eat all the donuts in the world, and then even asks for more).

As a perfume, this scent is not suitable, as it not only smells sweet but also a bit like pastry. Of course, anyone can wear it, but then you smell like you just came out of a bakery or something. As part of a fragrance library, the scent is great, but people who are currently on a diet and want to stay away from such rather unhealthy things should steer clear of this scent, as it immediately awakens the (craving) hunger in you, making you likely to snack on everything that comes your way!

I give the scent 90%. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite reach 100%, as it smells a bit sharper and more piercing in the middle.
