Cute powdery floral

Favourite bottle. Not my favourite scent- In fact I struggle to like this.
My first impression was the following: "old lady, soap, powdery balloons, porcelain dolls". I so badly wanted to detect the maple syrup and for the marshmallow to not be overpowered by florals, but unfortunately all I get is very powdery soapy florals. On further tests I realise it doesn't have to only be an 'old lady' smell. It also smells innocent, sweet, delicate, powdered sugar, unique. But still not for me.

I found a nice layering combo with anything vanilla buttercream scented (mist or lotion works), which brings the maple syrup out, but unfortunately I can't keep the perfume bottle just for that layering.

For those who love it, I can see it being a cute spring or autumn daytime scent, or even a cozy night time scent. It would fit well in a pink or vintage-themed room. Anything cute, cozy, girly, lolita and vintage dolls, etc.

@Violetaura sorry to hear you didn't enjoy this one! I'd heard great things about it too, so I appreciate you describing it - as I think I'll skip it now.
It sounds lovely enough, but like the heliotrope and freesia were especially strong (based on how powdery it came across) - so I imagine it would not be for me, either.

@Violetaura are you looking for a fragrance with a strong maple syrup note?
The strongest maple syrup fragrance I've come across is Pumpkin Pecan Waffles by Bath & Body Work - their body mist from this last fall is so strong, too (much stronger than a normal body mist)!

Aww its such a shame right! I really thought the notes would make it a delicious gourmand but it's definitely not :'( so so sad that the maple didn't come through.
