whiskerswhispers Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Sugared Grapes In vial: sugary fruit…smells more like melons and berries, but not like those 'grape candy' smells. On skin: oh, this is nice. This is the kind of grape scent I like-one that smells of sweet white grapes, and a hint of dessert wine. This actually smells like frozen grapes, there's a really icy coolness to this scent, which I like. Under the iced sugar is a lovely fruity sweetness-like melons, lychees, guavas and sweet white grapes, maybe a touch of white wine too. This to me, is more grape-like than those 'purple grape jelly' smells I've come across and I find to have a bitter, medicinal and synthetic scent to them that I can't stand. This is still very sweet and candied, and not as tart and red wine-like as I expected, but it is a grape scent I really like and smells more familiar to me. With a bit of wear I smell something effervescent, almost hinting at champagne. This is beautifully summery and very cooling as a scent, like a chilled fruit spritzer on a summer's day. The sugar in here is lovely too-not cloying at all, sweet and light like spun sugar, but also juicy like sugar cane. I really like this one a lot but there's one disadvantage-it's very faint, though it does seem to get stronger with time-which is unusual. The fizzy scent also increases. It's a wonderful sweet grape scent that smells nothing like stereotypical grape candy, and I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimosa Pour Moi Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 It's the best grape scent ever. I love that you said it's got that icy cooliness. To my nose it's that and bit of crystaline kick to it. MPM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salomewilde Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Description "The delightful scent of grapes picked fresh off the vine -, tart and sweet and sprinkled with light powdery sugar! Magickal properties include fertility, wealth attraction and increase of mental prowess." Mmm! This makes a delicious companion to Sugared Berries! Berry for daywear, and Grapes for night. Yes- Iced wine! You know, the grapes picked after the first frost that make dessert white wine? It costs a fortune, but it's the absolute best! Exotic, elegant, ladylike. Yup, if someone told be this was high-end French perfume, I would not only believe it, I would buy it. (Adds to big bottle list) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
