Unicorn Smile

[mountainwitch]

Make a Unicorn smile and it will grant you a wish! This delightfully sunny scent is the perfect lure for the magickal Unicorn ~ Notes of Citrus, Sugar, Vanilla and happy Florals improve the disposition, draw positive magickal energies around you, and would make anyone smile!

 

I hate to open a new topic for something that's already sold out . . . But I really do love this one. The moment I first put it on I immediately thought, "sugar cookies!" This one is definitely "happy"--it smells like citrus over warm, rich sugar cookies. It's bright enough for summer, but its vanilla and sugar--its "cookie" qualities--remind me of Christmas, too. It's Seasonal Affective Disorder therapy in a bottle . . . And there's a unicorn on it. What's not to love?

Dang! This is right up my alley. Is it similar to Yule Snuggle (minus the gingerbread)?

I haven't tried Yule Snuggle yet, but I have a sample coming in the mail as we speak. I'll try a side-by-side comparison and let you know!

You know, I totally forgot to post my comparison with Yule Snuggle . . . Oops! I remembered this morning after slathering up with some Unicorn Smile.

 

They're really very different scents. Yule Snuggle, for me, is like soft gingerbread with lemon curd. The combination is perfectly accurate, but very quiet, neither too spicy nor lemony. Just a soft baking smell that, regrettably, tends to disappear very quickly on me.

 

Unicorn Smile is a bit friskier! It's more sugar cookie than gingerbread, more oranges than lemons, and very sweet. It needs a moment to settle, and it has tremendous staying power for me, even more so than Yule Snuggle, which seems to vanish a bit more quickly. This longevity is even true of the citrus, usually one of the first notes to go in a fragrance (or, if it doesn't, it's got that kind of artificial Sweet-Tart shrillness). But I've been wearing Unicorn Smile for about four hours now, and I still smell like a bright citrus over warm and happy vanilla.

 

I hope that helps. And good luck if you're looking for this on the secondary market!
