Butterscotch and Candy Gummy Witch

Recommended Posts

On me, that burnt coffee note does not play nice with the apple gummies note. Though, the coffee not does go away, but leaving an also apple gummy one note. It ends up smelling like one just opened a bag of sour apple gummy worms. It's too sweet and artificial for my tastes.

This one was a surprise love for me. Unfortunately the burnt coffee is not as prominent as I would like it to be on me, but I'm very pleased with it as is. It's all apple gummies and yummy sweet butterscotch with a little je ne sais quoi from the coffee beans in the back- there's not much to say about it that the description hasn't already said, but if it sounds good to you, you can't go wrong imo. This one is so much fun!!

This sounded so unique and discordant that I just had to try it. It also conjured up the distinct image of the witch from the Tales From the Darkside Series pilot, furthering my excitement. 

 

...and it's a really pleasant combination! It almost reminds me of caramel apple pops, but what I'm digging the most is that burnt coffee bean lurking in the background. Spooky fun that makes me feel young at heart.

I was bummed that I ended up with an entire bottle of this when a decant circle participant backed out after the Lab order was made.   BUT... it's an interesting little fall scent!  I was hesitant on the burnt coffee bean note, but it's not overwhelming.  This would be delightful in a scent diffuser!

I added this to my last minute Halloween order because Butterscotch and Blackbeetles is one of my favorite bpals.  I would say that this is in the same family because the burnt coffee bean comes across as dark and earthy (not a burnt or smoky/charred smell at all, which is what I was worried about; it's simply the scent of gourmand-ish, earthy, dark, toasty coffee beans).  The butterscotch smells like a mix of butterscotch and soft caramel melting on a stovetop.  The apple is green apple candy at first and then dries down to a breezy apple blossom-ish scent, which comes across as smelling like apple blossom air freshener after a while.  What I really love about this scent is that it's somehow foggy, cool, and spooky in feel.  The scent of a peculiar, melty, butterscotch-caramel confection as you're wandering in the woods on a foggy night.  The sweetness feels out of place and that makes it creepy.  I love gourmand atmospherics like this.
