Annabel's Birthday Cake Marissa Zappas

Delicious Sugared cake, hints of citrus but not overbearing. Smells like icing you licked off your fingers, and that scent remains. A plastic/fruity note to it that reminds me of crayons and dolls. Smells like the powder that lines balloons before they are blown up. Its not totally gourmand, but it is very nostalgic and special. Smells like youthful mindsets, but feels adult and mature. Cold icing sitting in the fridge at micheals art supply party room. I could see this becoming my signature scent when i want something comforting and childlike.

After reading notes: The tuberose frosting and helitrope provide a more mature profile for this otherwise sweet scent. The lemon sugar adds that hint of citrus in the opening that quickly dies down. I dont get a heavy rose or floral scent from this. The tonka + heliotrope is whats giving it that plasticy doll scent.

Overall: My favorite of the house, something I’m most drawn to wearing. Even though i go after this scent profile, it feels unique and different enough to get a full bottle.
