An angelic scent that I need in my life!
Wow! This is a very unique, absolutely beautiful, almost angelic, fluffy cloud like fragrance. Don’t be put off by the notes. Nothing in this is heavy, sickly sweet or overly cakey. This is amazingly well blended!
Gateau Des Anges opens with light notes of peach, butter and lemon, with a hint of whisky faintly in the background. As it dries down the milky vanilla/caramel and a sugary tuberose/honeysuckle mix appear. The dry down is where it’s at. It’s absolutely stunning! The best way I can describe this is like a fluffy, pillowy soft, cloud light sponge cake. It’s decorated with a mix of tuberose and honeysuckle flowers, drizzled with a little caramel sauce and dusted with vanilla icing sugar. The name is just perfect because this is very light and airy. It’s also long lasting. I got a good 6-8 hours wear out of this and the scent bubble was divine! I would wear this year round. I can’t stop smelling this and had to add this to my collection. If you like Gourmands, this is an absolute MUST try! I absolutely love it! 10/10!
Some have compared this to D&G Devotion which I love, but this scent didn’t come to mind when I smelt Gâteau des Anges …. so I compared them side by side and can 100% say these are two completely different fragrances:
Devotion Eau de Parfum - is a fun, sweet and sugary lemon scent that reminds me of Limoncello.
Gâteau des Anges - is a much more refined and sophisticated type of gourmand resembling a fluffy angel cake with vanilla/tuberose icing sugar.
WARNING - for anyone in the UK, this cost me an additional £90 in shipping and import fees! The perfume is already very expensive for 50ml, so it’s only worth buying if you live in the US. Absolutely not worth it for UK customers.
