VioletChaos Report post Posted 1 hour ago I am definitely smitten! (This review speaks only to the scent, and not the properties of the hair gloss base, so all I'll say about that part, is that I adore the Lab's glosses, they work wonders for my very long, thin, multi-textured hair, especially during the cold half of the year, so I welcome any chance to accumulate more scent varieties!) Upon initial sniff, I had a feeling of whatever the equivalent of déjà vu is in the scent realm. I realized that something, or things, about this fragrance reminded me of a long-ago version of the Lab's classic Egg Nog. Upon closer inspection / meditation of this hair gloss, I determined that part of the spice profile coupled with this particular version of vanilla (which to my nose reads as vanilla bean), are the elements that brought to mind that Yule of yesteryear. But what was *really* interesting is that, in the same way when you think you see a friend from across the street, and then you get up close and you realize "oh, that's not who I thought it was at ALL", this brioche doesn't bare more than an actual passing resemblance to Egg Nog, actually. What it *really* smells like is the gorgeous, creamy interior of thick, beautifully done french toast. The kind that has a rich egg batter that lends itself to a custardy finish. I get that vanilla bean, and a delicate but ever-present array of autumnal spices and a buttery hint of the pumpkin. I don't get the brioche per se, but I'm definitely NOT disappointed by any of this. Yummy, delicately sweet, definitely gourmand- It's the "fall flavor" scent I didn't know I was missing. ❤️❤️❤️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
