Eau de Musk Stick
In theory this is one of those perfumes I should find icky. Cotton candy and vanilla musk doesn't have my name on it. But truth is I really like MOR Marshmallow. I find vanilla + white carnation + musky rose quite delicious - albeit in small does and only when I'm in the right mood because here the combination is achingly SWEET.

What MOR Marshmallow perfectly captures is in fact the fragrance of Musk Sticks*, and it is no doubt something of a guilty pleasure for that. Maybe you need to be hard-wired to love the smell? I don't know. But for many Australians it's enormously appealing - a happy, good-time scent redolent of childhood and lollie bags. I wear the oil in winter and the perfume in summer. For some reason it's especially good when the weather is cloudy.

And MOR is by no means a down market brand btw. It can be found in gift shops and department stores however, alongside Lollia, Demeter and Tokyo Milk in my experience.

* A species of Australian confectionary found in a sweet shop - google it some time.

Marshmallow? #FAIL
After reading a number of reviews that suggested MOR Marshmallow was an adult confection, I decided that it seemed right up my alley. Unfortunately, I have to report that this fragrance failed to impress.

First off, the florals present themselves at the top and are very artificial & synthetic smelling. The rose is a chemical soup without merit & is slightly irritating. Although it seemed sweet, it never seemed like marshmallows - it was all rose & jasmine on me sitting on top of a vanilla musk. It wore like something that might be manufactured by Coty and sold at Wal*Mart as a body spray with a plastic pump for under $4 or $5. While I don't have experience with the MOR brand, I was left with the impression of a down-market brand of toiletries available at drugstores & discounters.

Secondly, longevity is horrific. At the second hour, the scent was gone. On my other arm, I have Revlon Fire & Ice which is still going strong 8 hours later, and it remains a pleasant and comfortable scent - and this *IS* a down-market drugstore brand. No comparison between the two - Revlon outshines MOR, not by a little, but by a lot.

I purchased a small rollerball of the MOR Marshmallow perfume oil for about $10 shipped. It was a blind buy. I am thankful to have tried it, but I am even more thankful that I did not blind purchase a bottle. I recommend sampling before buying, even if you think you might like this - the floral accords simply are not well done. I much prefer the Mariah fragrances for marshmallow & cotton candy, and quite frankly I don't like the Mariah brand either, but it's much better than this. If you like this genre, it's hard to beat the original Hanae Mori (Butterfly), which is better than MOR & Mariah combined.

My review can be summed in 140 characters or less twitter-speak: Marshmallow? #FAIL

A Beautiful Confectionary Perfume (but diabetics beware...)
I was intrigued by one reviewer's claim that MARSHMALLOW is quite possibly the sweetest perfume in existence, so I picked up a small roller ball of the perfume oil and discovered that, in fact, By Kilian LOVE is even sweeter! This is certainly sweet, but it is complex and appealing in the way that special indulgence sweets are. You wouldn't want to eat them every day, but now and then it's a real treat to succumb to this sort of super-sweet yet scrumptious temptation. There is a lot more going on here than just sugar and vanilla.

I am fan of MOR. It's official. Everything they make smells very natural to me. I'm not a cotton candy perfume person per se, but this is probably the best of the genre--certainly of those I've tested so far... MARSHMALLOW is undeniably a confectionary perfume--as its name boldly and proudly proclaims--but it's a nice one, so if that happens to be your thing, you cannot go wrong. For what it is, MOR MARSHMALLOW is better than By Kilian LOVE. As an added bonus, it costs quite a bit less.
