Fake it so real, I am beyond Fake / Marissa Zappa's Coveted Lipstick Scent

After trying Annabel's Birthday Cake by the same perfumer, I am pleasantly shocked by her range and ability to create scents that indulge in scenery.

As a fan of the original art exhibit "The Pink Bedroom" by Portia Munson in the Museum of Sex, I am similarly captivated by this perfume's ability to get the rebellious nature of weaponized naiveté in misogyny. I think it is a caricature (much like the art itself) of womanhood, as a general concept. This smells of cosmetic powder, lipstick, strawberry syrup, berries, sugar, and everything nice (including a plastic assortment of everything girly).

This is a caricature, an intentional mockery of things ascribed to "girlhood".

It is mostly berries and powder on me, but I love it! It's a great scent for just chilling out, post shower intimately. It makes me feel youthful, sultry, and very cooool. It's strawberry note is plasticky but the blackcurrant is photorealistic.

It doesn't have a huge sillage range, especially after a few hours, but I can still smell it on my skin. It dries down to a cool, clean, sensual musk, making it more interesting than a typical sweet scent.
