I get a VERY toasted milk note mixed with spicy snake oil. It’s not as sweet as I thought considering the caramelized sugar. Maybe that will come out more with aging. While this isn’t as sweet as I wanted it is addicting. There’s something so cozy that I keep sniffing my wrist. I’m excited to see what happens when this ages. Pretty low throw and staying power. 

On me this is starts off with strong delicious white chocolate and maybe a little tea. I’m assuming that’s the mate. I love drinking mate so it was fun to see a scent include it. The banana is very faint in this one. Maybe because it’s creamy. The hazelnut is faint but adds an overall light nutty topping. Medium throw decent staying power. 

This is delicious banana pudding with coconut dusted on top. It’s really yum. In the dry down the chocolate comes out as a light powder with banana still lingering lightly. So good. Medium throw and wear time. 

This is a delicious apple and cinnamon pastry scent. I didn’t get much cherry. There was wafts of peach from time to time but only subtly. I wasn’t getting much brown sugar but more would’ve been nice. 

This is beautiful mostly strong lavender and sandalwood on me. I do wish the hazelnut came out more for me though. Cute label too. 

This smells like a fried doughnut with a little bit of gingerbread spice in the dry down. It’s a little oily but in the best way, just enough to be foodie not bad. This is what I wanted Scream Inside Your Heart to smell like. So if that made you say yuck definitely try this one! It’s way better! ?

This smells like a chocolate croissant to me. A nice bakery chocolate. Sweet and fluffy pastry and not yeasty. Very nice. 

This is like a butterscotch and cinnamon cookie on me. It got better with a little resting so definitely check your bottle if you haven’t in a while it’s getting more yummy ? 

This is a good Lick It but not my favorite. It’s a nice peppermint but very light on me. Love the candy cane label though. It’s less sweet than Don’t Lick It if you want that. 

This is probably one of my favorite Lick Its. It smells like a delicious candy cane and has the best throw of any Lick It. I tested it against Fuck It Might as Well Lick it too. That one isn’t as sweet. 

I get yummy popcorn and a little cream something in the background. It’s really yummy. Makes me think of watching movies on the couch in the dark munching on candy and popcorn ? Cute! 

This was a lovely vanilla with light oats but it was so light! Hardly any throw and staying power! Bummer. 

This was a yummy chocolate frosting on me that faded fast and disappeared on me quickly. So sad ? 

Hmmm so this one is mostly Strawberry on me and Lime which isn’t sitting well on my skin. But after the dry down the cotton Candy finally comes out and that’s the best note for sure, but sadly it’s so soft. I get the appeal of this scent it’s a fun fruity gem but not toothsome enough for me. ?

I reviewed this back in 2015 and it was for the 2013 version which was amazing. 
 

I’m back again because I recently got the newest version and it’s incredible! I love this scent so much! The chocolate is decadent and the other notes just meld so well together! It’s a definite fav still. The throw and staying power is amazing too! Bonus!!! My son even said it was his favorite of my Yules!  

On me this was a really nice marshmallow mint scent. I didn’t get any clove or anise. Maybe it would come out with some aging. Only bummer was the throw wasn’t very big, and my skin seemed to eat it up sadly. Ended up swapping it. 

Delicious maple syrup with a glob of honey. Little nutty on the dry down. I don’t get gingerbread really. But it’s yummy! Smells like breakfast morning. Cool label too because PANCAKES! ?

This was more like a vanilla latte on me with a little of pumpkin spice not pumpkin. As it dried down the espresso note came out and lingered. It had decent throw but not very long staying power. Cute label. 

This was just like the description pumpkin spices and red musk, sadly the red musk went powdery on me and not in a good way. It smothered any foodie pumpkin that I wanted. Sadly sold off my bottle. 

Took a chance on this because dead Leaves scents haven’t worked for me in the past but I’m so glad I did. This is mostly delicious pistachio cream and marshmallow on me. I barely get leaves. It may be a tiny bit of warmth being added but not hard spice, or rotten leaves. It’s so comforting too. I find I’m sniffing myself all day when I need to relax. Not the biggest throw but definitely stayed on the skin a long time! So good! ?

This is amazing! It’s a delicious spicy chai! I get marshmallow too and it’s so good! The notes work well together. I don’t get much honey and that’s ok. Not much stick either but the toasty smoky note just rounds it all out! ?

I completely agree with frizzlechicken this is all gummy bears and not much else! On the dry down I get a faint bit of vanilla cake. Kinda disappointed I wanted all the other notes and hoped the gummy bear would be the lightest lol ? 

I love this scent! It turned me onto Lavender scents in general. That said this is a delicious buttery Madeleine cookie with white chocolate balancing the lavender and cookie. It’s hard to describe but it’s just lovely. I feel like Marie Antoinette would wear it or eat the cookies at least! Beth I need this recipe lol ?

I adore this scent! The name means a lot to me and reminds me of my son. And the scent is a cozy marshmallow, white chocolate, with a little something more. Not sure what but it’s comforting.  Reminds me of Stekkjarstaur a little too.

This is delicious funnel cake but no powdered sugar. I agree it has a bit of a maple syrup vibe too. Super sweet and yummy. I also get whiffs of Creme Brulee as mentioned above in the throw. Very carnival sweet and fun. Hilarious sticker and label too.?
