Rosegirl Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I would love to hear reviews on G&L V3. I did not get the samples this month but would be interested in this one in bottle form if it is like V1 (I've heard so many good things about that one). If anyone has tried V3, I'd really be interested in your opinion. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 (edited) I was just going to post this in the original G&L thread, but I did a comparison between versions one and three and they're pretty much identical to me. Mara had told me she was attempting to get v3 as close to the original as possible. If anything it might be a little more eggnog at this stage, but remember this is freshly-brewed. With aging other aspects may become more prevalent. Edited December 7, 2010 by luna65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icing Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 (edited) My V3 arrived in the mail yesterday, but I'm giving it a few days to settle... currently, it smells like very, very strong, dry, hot and bitter cooking spices... nothing like the Garland & Lace V2 I have (that smells mostly like an almost bready, but slightly creamy, rich gingerbread on me).

Invidiana Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 This is just as delicious as the other two in its own unique way. There is a lot more gingerbread and spice in this one, almost made me think I was sticking my nose into a loaf of fresh-baked gingerbread, with just a bit of creaminess in the background from the eggnog note.

ravenwing Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 This one is fantastic. I compared this one to V.1 and they are exactly the same when wet, but i get more of a brown sugar scent from the V.3. V.3 also stays on my skin longer. If you like vol 1 you will love vol.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Kitten Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I absolutely *love* this, it smells delicious, but very maple-y on me. Not that I mind I keep going back to this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosebud Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 This one is absolutely LUUUURVELY On me it's a lot more similar to V1 than V2 was. It's a touch more spicy than V1 initially but it's got that same lush creamy dry down... SOOO yummy! V2 was too spicy on me. Nice, but too spicy.

Rosegirl Posted December 30, 2010 Author Share Posted December 30, 2010 o.k. I'm convinced. I need to get a bottle of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruiseviolet Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 I never tried V1, but I like this one better than V2. V2 had a weird smell after dry down on me, this one doesn't. It is less spicy, more like pumpkin pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElizabethOSP Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I've not tried versions 1 & 2, but ***V3 IS MY FRIEND!!!*** I am addicted to this. It makes me happy. It makes me feel good.

LadyVictoria Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I really love this scent, its sweet first then a bit spicy. I love Christmas and Halloween and this reminds me of both holidays. First I get Halloween because of the sweetness then I get Christmas because of the spice- it skips Thanksgiving ThanksGOD ~ I'm not a fan of T- day. This combines my 2 fav holidays and really makes me feel pretty and happy. I actually feel like I am covered in a blanket of candy and spiced eggnog with rum. It's very uplifting I ordered a big bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumbob Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 This smells like Buns of Cinn to me May be more spicy and less sweet :) LOVE!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumbob Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Refreshed with G&L3 before meeting my colour theory teacher! :D The meeting went really great! Teacher in a FAB MOOD, telling me that I am a hard working and talented student with a bright future ahead.... ( i hope so!) And then towards the end of the meeting she said "smells really nice this place.... smells like Maple syrup+ cinnamon) We were in a drawing class.... so the cinnamon def. didn't come from the classroom!! Then I said " might be my perfume " and she looked stunned! HAHA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyvey Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I had this on the other day just for me, but accidentally slew someone with it judging by the DIHL. whoops! It's funny how different everyone found it in comparison to the previous versions. I had set mine aside for a while because it was ALL SPICE on me (which was how v1 had smelled in the vial- never tried it) and not ALSO creamy and bready like my eternal love v2. But of course it has settled down. It is still not very much like v2 on me: much less bready/creamy and more brown sugar/mapley, almost more like a spicier MRF than g&l v2.
