Terrible Moon: Pistachio and Vanilla Buttercream

Pistachio and Vanilla Buttercream.

This duet features an almond-y sort of pistachio note, backed by the sweet vanilla buttercream. Unlike almond notes, which tend to be fleeting, though, the pistachio sticks around and hovers above the buttercream base.

 

I like this, but I think just my decant will be enough.

This scent goes on with lots of almond-scented pistachio and a lactic, very-slightly-tangy vanilla. As it's wearing, the almond extract quality fades and the accord becomes one that's nutty, but not identifiable as any particular nut. The tang of the buttercream fades, too, to where it's just a creamy vanilla. I'll need to test it a couple more times before I decide whether it's worth a FS, but I like it very much.

I agree with doomsday_disco that is is an almondy pistachio! It has that sweet syrupy vibe of the lab’s almond note. And then there’s the sweet vanilla buttercream which is more tangy cream cheese frosting than “butter”, to my nose. I don’t need a whole bottle, but it’s very pleasant!
