Fresh, light and airy cotton candy
Oooh this one is a beauty! I was fortunate to receive a sample of it with a Sephora purchase (even though it wasn't in the sample choices) and I'm glad I got it. Since I just finished Skylar's discovery set, I thought it'd be fitting to try out one of their perfumes.
The raspberry sorbet note at the beginning is a delight. It's soft, but sweet, with a slight tang of fruity juiciness. I don't smell the apple much, although I do think it contributes to the overall freshness and fruitiness I detect during the top notes. As time passes, it becomes more creamy sweet and delicate, with a nice light, airy feeling. I also start to smell spun sugar and vanilla. I do get why people feel it smells like laundry detergent as there is a freshness and lightness to it, but my nose also picks up on the sugared accord which drives away this association (at least to me). There's an underlying warmth in the drydown that probably comes from the combination of amber and musk, but it's a comforting warmth, like being wrapped in a comfy sweater during a cooler summer night. The drydown is a sugared vanilla with a slight floral twang.
This is a beautiful interpretation of cotton candy and child nostalgia. One of the gourmands I wouldn't mind wearing during warmer weather (when most of my gourmands are a no-no during heat). It's pretty light, inoffensive, but has good longevity. The sillage does start to taper off after an hour or two, but since I can keep smelling myself, who cares? A full bottle might be making its way to my collection one day!
