The Harbor of Love on the Island of Women Hair Gloss

[Jenjin]

White tea, cherry rose petals, marshmallow, frothed cream, and amber.

I've been very tired of rose fragrances lately, and this hair gloss is very rosy, but I'm actually enjoying it a lot.  As soon as I put it on, I felt pretty and like I should be a main character on Bridgerton with flowers in my hair in an epic updo.  It feels less "foolish young people trying to get married" and more "powerful and confident matriarch" or Queen Charlotte herself, though, which is totally working for me.  The cherry rose is so cool because it smells like I have real, fresh picked cherries and roses in my hair, and they mesh together so well.  The white tea is present for the first hour or so and adds a pleasant sharpness along with the marshmallow smelling like a touch of powdered sugar and the amber base giving off vintage perfume feels.  I think it's the amber that pulls everything together and smells more mature to me.  I will have to see how far I get through my 1 oz decant.  I might need more of this.

i get mostly cherry and frothed cream at first...it's a little toasty/cakey, which i can only handle in small amounts. after a bit i get the rose and marshmallow, the cake/crumb note has died down thankfully. i find it to be pretty sweet...reminds me of a strawberry shortcake doll, but with cherry (i can't recall if there was a cherry themed doll?) anyway, on me it's a plasticky doll-head sweet cherry marshmallow. i sense a bit of tea in the background but it's pretty subtle.

Just got this and had to try it right away , so unsettled slather here we go … 

 

I love it , I had Kamisuki years ago and miss it and this …. Def has the same family vibes for me . I immediately smell the cherry rose petals on initial application and a very soft marshmallow , then the white tea faintly . I don’t get any amber but don’t mind . Love this one and will backup bottle 👌

I get a lot of cherry rose and marshmallow upon application (though it's strong on the marshmallow, light on the cherry and even moreso on the rose). The rose is more evocative of dried rose petals. Everything settles about half an hour in to white tea with a sprinkle of marshmallow. I find white tea (or most teas, generally) become quite sour on me, but this scent is gorgeous and kept balanced with the marshmallow. I love it, and plan to bottle it.

Oh this is pretty! The cherry and rose meld together in a really pretty and interesting way. It's sweet and creamy but not overly so. It has a fun and frilly vibe.
