It seems like it will be really sweet.
Probably, but I’ll give it a shot.
I would love a real lavender honey scent…this will be too sweet, eck.
Probably.
I was excited to try it because I’m a fan of lavender and their foaming italian lavender soap, but this one didn’t smell much like lavender at all, unfortunately, just typical bath and body works “sweet smelling nonsense”. The foaming soap is amazing though, I love how it leaves my hands pleasantly lavender scented for hours….
Oh, good to know, many thanks!
“White oak musk,” eh?
Sigh. Words have no meaning.
I’m assuming they left out the comma, but just in case that’s what they want to call it, I left it the way they worded it. I’ll try to remember to check tomorrow to see if they’ve added one.
Just dabbled on a smidge of real musk that I got from an etsy seller–it’s penetrating, raunchy with slightly sweet and smoky tones. How everything else gets called musk is cometely beyond me
I love the Provence region of France and I love lavender, and I happened to be in the mall today so I spritzed some on. I agree with Sonam, sadly I could barely smell any lavender at all, and while the scent was very sweet the sweetness didn’t really remind me of honey the way I’ve experienced honey notes in other fragrances like Soir de Lune, Tea for Two, Miel de Bois, etc.
I wonder if it smells more like real honey and lavender to the average shopper who won’t be comparing it to a bunch of niche fragrances (and who doesn’t have lavender sachets scattered around their house)? I’m assuming they must have people test it ahead of time.
Lollia Relax already fills my need for a lavender and honey scent so no real urgency to sample this
BBW has the mini bottles on sale right now. I gave it a quick sniff, but really didn’t pick up on the lavender or a honey note. Kinda ran together with most of the stuff they put out.
They did have small bottles of the Morocco Orchid & Pink Amber scent. It was a nice, light, knock around the house, or too humid for heavy kind of scent.
