Scent by the Sea Etsy Perfume Opinion:
Doing this while I'm sort of sick so my sense of smell might not be the greatest, since I'm only using one nostril.
Ganache:
bottle - sweet & medicine like smell. Like those sweet syrupy kinds. with some floral hints?
on the skin - similar but now there's like a sweet sort of artificial smell to it? not sure how to describe it. I do smell chocolate but it's not really a pleasant kind.
after 3+ minutes - same as when I just put it on. It's sweet but there's this weird plastic-y sort of smell to it.
2/5
Milk Bar:
bottle - seems sort of like a sweet but sort of floral clean scent at the same time
on the skin - scent went sweeter. still smells like a fresh and sweet scent. reminds me a bit of milk candy.
after 3+ mins - less everything sort of except maybe sweeter. It lost the fresh smell and now just sort of smells like warm sugar.
4/5
Dark Frida:
bottle - smells like a bit of musk. can't really discern any other smell.
on the skin - sort of a musky nut smell? or maybe musk with some leather?
after 3+ mins - same? but could just be due to congestion
3/5
Vanilla Chai Tea
bottle - smells like spices. faint chai tea smell.
on the skin - smells like a faint chai tea latte. faint. not many hints of vanilla.
after 3+ mins - same maybe more muted
4/5 it's a very subtle chai tea, no vanilla hints though
Arancia Nero
bottle - smells like straight up orange liquer
on the skin - smells like orange or lemon baked goods. yummy.
after 3+ mins - a lot more muted but still smells like orange baked goods.
4/5
Candied Violet
bottle - don't really smell anything?? maybe a faint faint floral?
on the skin - the smell really blossoms. can definitely smell the sweet with some floral. it smells almost tangy like fruit flavored candy.
after 3+ mins - more muted scent, or my nose acting up again.
4/5
Candy Darling
bottle - definitely smells sweet with something else lingering along there.
on the skin - smells a lot like fruity candy or gum.
after 3+ mins - same
4/5
Winter Beach
bottle - strong pine beach sort of smell
on the skin - mostly pines, like a forest
after 3+ mins - same, just as strong
2/5
Moon Bride
bottle - very sweet florals, like sticking my nose into a flower arrangement
on the skin - very strong floral scent afterwards, exactly like smelling maybe a flower arrangment boquet. reminds me a bit of a rose scented rosary I used to own
after 3+ mins - just as strong
3/5 would be more than if it wasn't so strong
