Raspberry AG Cloud and marshmallow heaven
With a hint of the coconut DNA from AG Cloud, this perfume perfectly blends raspberry, marshmallow lightness and soft musk with to a sweet, lighthearted, young, upbeat and uplifting scent. Definitely on leaning more on the younger- reading perfume side, I think you can pull it off at any age if you really love it. If you do, it simply suits you. This perfume is a raspberry moodlifter of the sweet, macaroon kind. You simply can't wear this perfume and be sad at the same time, which also kind of embodies the namesake song it is named after.
Ariana Grande has for some reason chosen to give out young, different, but very well thought out, cleverly made perfumes for gourmand, sweet lovers.
What I appreciate about this perfume the most is that it gives this soft edge to a raspberry scent, a soft touch, created by musk and macaroon in the base, which brings it all down and giving the sharpness of a typical raspberry a soft base to land on. It opens very bright and strong, with the raspberry and pear, and after about an hour or two settles into something softer, giving you more of the coconut from Cloud and a hint of, dare I say it, an elegant rose which really ties it off beautifully. The drydown is addictive, soft, musky, yet sweet, although I wish there was a little bit more of that opening, clear raspberry in it.
If you want to feel light, youthful, fun, or like embodying the feel of summer or spring in a scent, this one is for you, especially if you like A.G Cloud, sweet scents, gourmands and looking for raspberries. I don't, however, think this is blind-buy safe. If you want a more blind-buy safe raspberry perfume, you might be better off with Burberry Her Intense instead, which is similar, but a bit more paired down, a bit more adult and not so in-your-face as this one. This scent is definitely for bubbly personalities!

Straight up berry, sweet vanilla with light chocolate milk and cream
After a spicy, almost scary, berry- opening, leaning almost bit bubble-gummy, this perfume settles into a sweet, warm, cozy kind of scent, before, after about an hour, it settles into absolutely beautiful, yummy, warm, sugary, sweet vanilla with a hint of milk chocolate. If you don't like it right away, don't scrub it - it will change. The main scent of this perfume is like a warm hug, soft sweater- weather kind of scent, this straight up vanilla gourmand is perfect for spring, early summer, autumn and winter. I don't know about height of summer though. After an hour or two, the beautiful chocolate milk accord makes itself be known, making it a fun delight to wear. I wear it when I feel the need to be comforted or comforting. Or simply when I want to smell like chocolate.
Billie Eilish is actually a bit of a perfume collector and with this perfume I feel like she has found the perfect vanilla for those who are looking for an affordable one. In fact, all the notes in this perfume is created with the same color - a brown amber, also reflected in the color of the stunning bottle, making this an interesting visual- olfactory experience. The bottle is also gorgeous, hefty and heavy and protects the juice inside from deteriorating sunlight.
Overall a lovely, casual scent that makes you smell like a snack! If you like vanilla I think you'll like this, however I don't think it's a safe blind buy due to the interesting berry opening and the sweetness of it. I also don't think it projects very far, as it is so creamy and slightly musky - it has more of an intimate kind of scent profile. It is marketed as unisex but I think it leans feminine, and you need quite a few sprays to make it have and impact, so I would go for a larger bottle on this one.
On me it becomes more of a skin scent after three to four hours, but it lasts very long, the notes have staying power. If I spray it in the afternoon I can sometimes still smell the drydown the next morning on my skin. Longevity I would say is 6-8 hours. I myself love a fragrance that morphs and changes like this one does, and takes you on a bit of a journey, however, and at the very end the bubblegum pops back up again, so if you like sweet, warm, vanilla perfumes that do that, then this is for you. I'm myself am obsessed with it. Some say it´s unoriginal, but I don't understand that as I have never smelled a perfume quite like it, and I have put my nose on quite a few, especially vanillas. I love that Billie Eilish always defies expectations and does whatever she wants to do anyway.
