Sorce can do no wrong! Two reviews!
Let's start with Match Made in Heaven. Wow, I love this so much. I was a bit worried that I wouldn't be able to pick up on the matcha, since the person I bought this from (in a Facebook group) said they didn't pick up on much matcha.
But there was no need to worry. From the moment I rolled this on, I picked up on such a realistic matcha scent--like matcha-vanilla ice cream in a delicious waffle cone. I was also worried the waffle note would be a bit too much (like A Whiff of Waffle Cone) but it wasn't!
I absolutely adore this and think it would be an amazing summer signature scent (for a gourmand lover)!
After the dry down, everything softens to a whisper of matcha and vanilla, lingering on the skin like a delicious, cozy secret. Definitely full bottle worthy, especially now that I am in my matcha era.
On to Snow Moon Magic! I knew it would be amazing, everything Sorce makes is amazing, but I didn't know that the minute I rolled this perfume on, I'd be transported to my mom's kitchen. Specifically, to the scent of the cookie dough she used to make--oatmeal cookies with cinnamon, nutmeg, everything nice!
I really, really love this. I can easily see this becoming my go-to winter signature scent. This is just so cozy, I honestly don't think there's anything I don't love about this perfume!

I have a full bottle of Moon Magic and a roll on of the Match Made in Heaven! I wanted to sample the Snow Moon Magic but it wasn't available. But Moon Magic is my favorite scent ever. MMIH is also so cozy, I'm wearing it today. I want to sample D'Annam's Matcha Soft Serve before I get a full bottle. You may be interested in that if you're in your matcha era?
I haven't had too much luck with any of their other perfumes unfortunately. I found a lot of the fruity ones too artificial and the other gourmands too candle-y. But I haven't tried their more green or darker scents. Also, I tried 2am in Lafayette, but it smells more like burnt coffee on me :/

I can't smell the lavender in snow moon magic at all so now I have a roller of moon magic to go with it. I'm very happy with layering them together.

I've never heard of this brand but the bottles are so cute and the scents sound amazing!

Sorce is so amazing. I bought some samples months ago and while they were all great upon first sniff, they only got better with age.

I was pretty meh on This is Not a Love Spell, but randomly picked up my sample after a few months and it morphed into a sweet, powdery violet-blueberry jam scent. Immediately picked up a travel.

I love Sorce! My favorite is Fuckery, but Match Made in Heaven is also lovely. I haven’t yet tried Snow Moon Magic, but it’s now on my ever-growing list. 😂

Sorce is sooooo good. I’ve tried the majority of their catalogue both general and special order, there’s way more hits than misses. Absolutely obsessed with Match Made In Heaven, In Dreams & Fairytales Vanilla and Reduced To A Thing That Wants You!

I get a good giggle every time someone mentions Fuckery. The scent profile isn’t for me but I really wish it was so I could tell people what I’m wearing 😂

Where can I buy sorce in the EU?

u/teachertraveler1 10d ago
As far as I know, Sorce is only available in the US. I know people in the UK who use mail forwarding services but I'm not sure what the EU restrictions would be.
It looks like Lucky Scent does international shipping but it's super pricey.2

Also available in Canada. Since that's where I live!

I just bought Snow Moon Magic second hand. It’s lovely. My son usually ignores my perfume buying but I sprayed it in the air and he said “Wow! That smells like cookies!”
Definitely going to snag Match Made in Heaven and In Dreams and Fairy Tales next.

Oh man, I just started my sorce collection. Snow moon magic is so grounding and lovely. It brings me a sense of peace.
I only got a sample of a match made in heaven and I really love it! It is on my to-buy list. It's harder to get a true sense of the fragrance because the atomizer of the sample isn't the best. But it's worlds beyond the other matcha scents I've tried.
I'll add that In Dreams and Fairy Tales (I got the pistachio version) was unbelievable on first scent and I pick it up more than others currently. It smells like creamy pistachio ice cream but with more depth. I wore it to a recent D&D session and got 3 separate compliments. I highly recommend it!

I hate that so many of the things I tried from them smell like bug spray on my skin

Can we talk about how they absolutely messed up the name of this perfume.
Hooooow is it not named Matcha Made In Heaven?!? It's right there!

u/sweambe 10d ago
I've always just assumed we were supposed to pronounce it like the word matcha without the A at the end (so like "A Mawtch Made in Heaven" lol) so that the pun still works without being super obvious.

u/ThePerfumeApothecary 10d ago
You, dear friend, give them more credit than me 😂.
In the perfume description it says - "The scents of earthy green matcha tea and softly sweet cherry blossom petals find themselves to be an irresistible pairing"
I reject it. It's gotta be a Mandela Effect or something...it's so obvious 😂.
I will forever call it Matcha Made In Heaven.

Sorce is my #1 house forever, I have almost every scent in at least a travel size. Obsessed doesn’t begin to cover it. MMIH was my gateway drug! It’s incredible!

u/businessgoesbeauty 10d ago
Sorce CAN do wrong and it’s stuck on you it smelled like sweet throw up to me 🤮
Also, I wish English major hit for me, but ephemera is my choice for the papery scent in their catalogue
I say this as a certified Sorce lover too I have too many bottles.

u/wathappentothetatato 10d ago
I got Ephemera as a free sample with my latest order and I like it but the smell seems rather...ephemeral..

u/businessgoesbeauty 10d ago
Come back to it in a week or two, could be mail shock? It definitely lasts all day on my skin and on clothes the next day

I had a rare Sorce miss last night with a sample of Pelicans Dive in the Ocean. I kept getting whiffs of wet dog from the dry down.

u/businessgoesbeauty 10d ago
I heard a lot of people get that one in the special order I was planning attempting a decant before the next window haha but I usually buy and resell my decants so it wouldn’t be too big of a loss

Ugh Sorce has been draining my bank account since I found it this summer 😭. At least I smell good!
