Lovely deep and cozy gourmand after the initial attack of sweet chocolate /cacao notes together with a somehow contradictory pink baby powder smell. Once it settles, it turns into a sultry gourmand wi...Read more

Another stop in my search for fragrances that smell like vintage makeup and face powder. This one is iris, incense, musk, green notes, floral notes and amber that result in an airy, powdery iris make...Read more

Gentle comfort scent. Smells like vanilla ice cream with a hint of talcum powder. Delicate enough a vanilla to be worn in Spring and Summer as well. Sexy in a snuggly kind of way.

I have no problem with the fact that Cara smells of Play-doh and sugar wafers because the combination is comforting and mildly amusing, but I do have a problem with it's lack of sillage and longevity....Read more

I fell in love with the Lucky Scent sample vial. I prefer to have a spray sample before a large purchase (I believe this one was $160) but since none was available from TPC for this fragrance, I orde...Read more

Well-executed, gentle anilla-almond scent. Not o er whelming or headache-inducing or adolescent-sweet. Soft and comforting. Impressed with all three fragrances--Cara, Chia and the new Fiore di Ris...Read more

This review is based on a sample vial, which I ordered because it sounded like a warm, comforting vanillic skin scent. It didn't, however, meet my expectations. This isn't a skin scent in the slightes...Read more

Oh no! I really wish you hadn't said that about the dog shampoo, because now I can smell it, too! It does smell very much like a shampoo we used to use on my dog when I was a small child. Is that the...Read more

This is the no-sillage version of Etro Heliotrope. Cherry almond, a touch of sugary powder, lots of Play-Doh. I have to stick my nose against my wrist to smell it, but I can still smell it the next ...Read more

This is just too lovely to pass up. I wanted to try more of Farmacia SS Anunziata's scents after sampling Vaniglia del Madagascar and falling in love. I debated between a sample of this, Chia, and Kam...Read more

Powdery floral. Combination almost makes me think of fruit right on the verge of rotting. Nuts a bit more minor to the sugar and musk. On the low end of like for me. Feel it could be way too cloying a...Read more

Oily amber just on the edge of sour. Reminds me a lot of these 1/3oz oils with the blue caps I used t o buy at the health food store for $8. Very head-shoppy in that fashion. If I want that scent, I'l...Read more

I'm a true lover of gourmand fragrances but this stuff was not good at all imo. To my nose it registers as an almost tart wet cardboard box smell? Idk. It's weird....no depth at all. The sillage is al...Read more

Amazing Vanilla fragrance, it lasts at least 13 hours on me, just simply cannot stop sniffing my wrists to get an extra blast, but it is ever present even when my arms are plastered to my side. What I...Read more

A blast of Christmas type spices and then it is all over in under an hour, which is ok as I don't want to smell like a Christmas cake. Completely undetectable on my wrists 2 hours later, best to give ...Read more

This is a wonderful, longlasting scent. A salty cookie dough amber with a hint of incense. It reminds me mostly of SDSA Embruns d'Ambre, but it's airier and less sweet. It's not powdery, nor fluffy no...Read more
