Seeking "cat" recommendation for a kid

[Luk]

My young kid loves my small bpal collection and loves their pet cat, and has asked me if I can get a perfume that "smells like a cat". I see the Felis Silvestris Catus collection, but most of them don't yet have reviews and I'm not sufficiently knowledgeable to make a prediction about which scents might really evoke "cat" in some way. I see some reviews of The Small Brown Cat mention a fuzzy smell, so that might work. I think my kid would be especially thrilled by a perfume that's a bit floral or foodie, but that's not a requirement. Preferably it would have a cat pictured on the label and/or "cat" in the name. I obviously don't want to choose something that smells boozy or notably sexy or has a label/name that would be wildly inappropriate for a young kid. What would you recommend? Thanks so much!

A Chocolate Cat (Yule 2021) might be the best option if you can find it secondhand, and The Small Brown Cat would probably be next best. The Cat (Coraline) has got the cat on the label and the wonderful character from the story, but not sure if the scent would appeal to a kiddo.

Thank you so much!

Velvet (gentle sandalwood warmed by cocoa vanilla and a veil of deep myrrh) might be a contender. Reviews are mixed but I find it very cozy and it would be easy to get a hold of since it's GC. I think at least one of the 13 scents had a cat on the label as did some of the Weenies.

Thanks! I now see a couple of the 13 scents that have cats and will keep an eye out for them secondhand.

@Luk Gooped Familiar is a cinnamon candy sort of scent from this year's weenies and features a black cat on the label.

 

Cheshire Cat and Schrodienger's Cat are both general catalog scents you can get samples of. The label won't have a cat, but they're both fun, bright scents I think would work nicely for a tween or kiddo. 

 

The above suggestions are all really good too. 😸

I haven’t smelled this one, but it’s caught my eye on the website before, and this thread made me think of it:

Cat Seen From Behind, with toasted sandalwood, tonka bean, rice milk and patchouli. Sounds very warm and snuggly and comforting to me.

The Cat is my 8 year old girl's fav!
