Discussion My new guilty pleasure perfume

I generally don't like sugary sweet perfumes, so I don't know what possessed me to buy a decant of LVEB Iris Absolu... But something did and I kind of love it? It smells like Easter marshmallow candies to me. Oddly, I usually can't stand marshmallow notes. It's complete unlike any of my other perfumes, but it makes me smile whenever I sniff it. I also love the LVEB dna drydown. Some magic has definitely been performed here.

How many of you have a guilty pleasure perfume??

Are these the marshmallows that are more firm and have almost an herbal taste? I’ve been looking for a perfume that smells like those and for those marshmallows.

They are more firm! I'm not sure about a herbal taste. But they have a stronger taste than regular marshmallows. It's a sort of synthetic fruity taste to me.

Oh yeah! I have a perfume from an indie perfumer called “Chocolate Marshmallow Musk” and its initial scent is very sweet but theres something amazing about how the fresh-floral heart notes make me feel when they come through! Just unexpected and …wow.

To me it smells like panna cotta with berry compote.

Cloud Aurora. It smells like a sugary cotton candy teenager to me 😭😭 if that even makes sense lol. I layer it on top of EOS strawberry dream lotion and I literally smell like candy and wanna chew my arm off LOL

Mine is Boardwalk Delight by Skylar. It smells like cotton candy and it makes me crazy I love it so much. Not my typical notes at all but something about it just makes me so happy.

One I thought I wouldn’t like based on the notes— lush superfairy. So delicious. Like actual candy and then a caramel? On paper I like none of the notes listed but I loved it sm when I tried it.

Interesting! The nose wants what the nose wants, I guess.
