I want to BATHE in this. I think I probably smell like I did as I just got my hands on some and slathered away. This is probably my favorite BPAL ever and that says a lot after 14 yrs trying tons.

I have to say, this is just what I hoped it would be light! Fresh light and frozen come to mind. I don't know why but I thought of Skadi when I smelled it. Sometimes Lunacies are too aquatic or ozone-y for me, so I don't buy them often anymore, but not this one. The fruits are strong and realistic (the blueberry is great not synthetic) wet, though I don't smell tangerine alone, then it morphs into cold frozen, sweet musky petals on me. I like it better first applied, but it's def. a keeper.

Just tried this for first time, finding a big decant untouched I bought back when this was released! How was this not more popular?? It is glorious! It reminds me more of sandalwood than patchouli - maybe the aging? The coconut is lovely and this reminds a bit of the beach. Amazing!

I ordered 2 at once of this one, unsniffed, because candy scents lately are the ones I reach for and love the most. I've worn this several times now and have wanted to review it, but am really having a hard time with notes - the jellybeans one, anyways! If anyone is into Lush, this makes me think of the "Rockstar" soap scent but not totally. I love that the sugar cookie crumbs do not take over and make this foody/bakery-ish as those scents can be cloying on me, even if delicious. The jellybeans note is some kind of fruit but not orange yellow black or green....maybe red or purple. Kinda like the purple jelly beans that are nondescript, have a sweet flavor, almost floral at times?? I like this scent a lot and do get the cotton candy but not so much frosting or cookie. LOVE!

This is a freezing cold scent for sure! Cool mint, ozone, and vanilla. A perfect winter scent in a bottle. I think of icy vanilla kissed with minty snow when I smell it.

Sorry to say, glad I started with a decant with this one. Sadly, I've had the same reaction as several other reviews - not really any cotton candy - more like a strange mesh of dragon's blood, carnation, with some sweetness, but on me it's still dry and kind of sharp. Not what I was hoping for but not horrible. I was really hoping more for something like Pink Wig Spray.

First sniff, there is an amazing blast of yes, I concur ZZ, black cherry, that slips away quickly to be replaced with a musky Midway (from Carnival Noir)-ish scent just bordering on play-dough but not reaching the edge, that I'd like more if it stayed a bit sweeter. Even though meringues have no scent to me (but I adore the taste and texture of them, having a mom with a European background who had great tastes in desserts and all the ones she exposed me to as a child. Meringues were a special treat from the bakery when I was little!), I imagine them when I sniff this. But I'm not complaining, it's delicious the short time it lasts on the skin.

 

 

This is straight up Midway or even Mouse Circus, (I smell popcorn too!) in atmo form. Love it, wish I had 10000 bottles!!!!!!!

Poor Monkey from the Yules!!

So happy I had a chance to get this one - a blind buy after reading the reviews here, and it is a gorgeous as I had hoped! The fig sweetens up the sandalwood - those are the notes I smell the most. LOVE!!!!

Just now sampled my bottle and wow. I normally despise chocolate in perfumes (but wanted to support the cause and loved the name), but wow, this is great, deep but sweet chocolate with to me, the lab's champagne note. Dries down to a sweet but dusty chocolate with the fizzy edge. LOVE.

I will PM you a link of one that was released from another etailer yrs ago, I was so bummed I could never get it as it sold out!

The honey is really amping on me and I'm getting musty musky honey -no coconut, rose, etc. This is fresh from mailbox, so will retest and revisit this post!

Def. grapey, in the vein of WILF and Smut, but not as sweet. Very nice, I think I'd prefer to layer it with something sweeter though as the clove dries it out a bit.

What every amazing review has said. I LOVE THIS!!!!! I'd order more if I didn't have so much BPAL already. I made a rule I am no longer buying back up bottles, and with this one, it's going to be really hard not to.

This is Marshmallow Poof's oder, sophisticated sister. I swear I am getting a very light floral and/or musk in this, tinged with marshmallow vanilla sweetness. Though it stays close I can smell it on my arm over an hour after application. Very pretty and not what I was expecting - a lot more complex than I expected after previously reading reviews!

OH MY GOD!
That's what I said when I sniffed this. I can't WAIT to use it tonight. I only smelled it, but the creaminess was just the best ever, with more understated, natural blueberry, totally so HAPPY I ordered this after waffling on which one to buy!

I LOVE THIS - tried my decant for the 2nd time this morning (remembering I liked it when I first tried it and had forgotten I had it) and ran and ordered a full bottle to add to my pies before it disappears!!!

This scent makes me HAPPY. I don't even know how to describe it but it's red, fruity, candle like, smells like a drink, and some how reminds me of Red Moon 2004 all at once. It smells nothing like Red Moon don't get me wrong but there's something in this that has to have been in that blend. I may need more of this!!!

I don't know if I applied too much but this is getting a bit to heady for me atm. When first applied, I smelled something I remembered from Go To Sleep, Darlings. This is a pretty scent but something is going a bit too foody for me (and almost something burnt), like pastry/caramel/syrup, and the floral is a bit too much on me. This is straight from the mailbox so will try it again in a week or so!

This reminds me a lot of WILF/Luna Negra (2011 version) Gorgeous!

I am getting a soft, creamy floral from this - not sure what flower/flowers....jasmine? lily? Can't wait to see other reviews of this one.

I agree with the review above - it also reminded me of the smell of that white thick paste we had yearrrrs ago in Kindergarten! It loses its sweetness after being on a few mins (I got a blast of almond first applied) and on me becomes a bit almost anise-like. I like it though, in a weird way. Really goes with the concept and a good job, I think!

I don't even have TKO oil but I knew I would love this and I do. I wish I had gotten more than 1 bottle. I want to spray it everywhere!!!! This would be such an amazing item to have available all the time. I fear the day I run out of this. My fave atmo ever!

Sadly, this was more faint orangey bubblegum (lotus?) than cotton candy on me. Very thin, pale oil that seems to disappear minutes after application on me. I really wanted to love it but I think I like my recent Chaos Gourmand sweet candy scent better.

 

ETA: This review sounds super negative and I don't mean it to be. I think I just expected something more cotton candy-ish and I should realize the lab rarely do "simple" or even more synthetic type blends which I am used to with cotton candy scents - this was just more than I wanted but I am sure others will love it!
