Scent review: Sunshine

Because [livejournal.com profile] girlguidejones mentioned it and it came in my latest order.



Scent description: sun warmed blood oranges over rich sandalwood, vanilla-drenched resins and a golden musk base

No lie, this is happiness in a vial.

I'm not sure how blood orange differs from regular orange in a perfume. At first the orange was cloyingly, children's medicine sweetness, but it mellowed into a sort of creamsicle-and-resin scent. I liked it.

After a few hours, the sandalwood came out more, and a patchouli-type smell that isn't in the notes at all. And then the orange went away, and the vanilla, and it was all resins-wood-musk. Smell Bent loves its musks like whoa.

I'm on a lot of medication right now.





Also, this perfume has lasted three days in the diffuser. THREE DAYS.

Rating: 4 of 5. I would have words, but T is looking at Wrestling Fandom Secrets.
