bumbob Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 2011 to me is deeper than the original, more marshallow, and I love the Vanilla underneath.. Is this like the marshmallow in flying potion?? Ahh... it sounds amazing....
Potion Master Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 I used a different Marshmallow this time. The Marshmallow I used previously (for Egg and Flying Potion) which I felt was the best, truest Marshmallow on the market, was actually a flavoring, not a fragrance oil. On this occasion, I was finally able to find a Marshmallow oil that met my strict requirements. They are very similar scentwise, and I used that favorite old flavoring for the Marshmallow Egg Sugar Scrub this month.
liz Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 (edited) This version didn't do it for me this time....something in it was reminicent of Esmie's Pink Emerald eta: it's for sale in my trading thread if anyone's interested Edited April 2, 2011 by liz
luna65 Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 (edited) The main difference for me between the original and the 2011 version is the new version is sweeter, it seriously makes me think of a Marshmallow Peep because I get a real sugary type impression, almost kind of pink sugar-ish, but very sweet. It wears as light and subtle on me as the original does. The amber is much more prevalent in the original, IMO. Edited January 21, 2012 by luna65
goddesslynne Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 I love this so much!! The extra sweetness is just what I like!! Dare I say, it's better for me than last year's. I full bottle for sure!!
Pony Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 Very close the original to me...a faint marshmallow musk. Not overly sweet, even. And just as the original it is a close skin type scent, not a whole lotta THROW...
Potion Master Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 Yes, Marshmallow has a very intimate fragrance, it never has a lot of throw, but if you slather, it will stay on the skin, close to the skin, for a long time. I find it a soothing, romantic scent, with a lickable appeal.

therapygirl Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 I know, Fawn, I frequently wish we had a "like" button!!
LadyVictoria Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 I'm dying to sniff this one too! I Love me some Huevos!
JOC Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 Will have to take my bottle of Flying Potion out to test as I don't know why Egg seems like it is haunting me, calling out my name!
Beccah Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 I haven't wanted to test this one out yet, but in the vial it has a pink tinge to the sweet creaminess.
kblazin Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 OMG, I absolutely cannot wait to try this. I swear, every time I wear Egg (2009, never got to try original, sigh) I am impressed and enamored with it all over again :J001: I am beside myself with anticipation for this version!! Placing my order tonight then counting down the moments...
bruiseviolet Posted April 12, 2011 Posted April 12, 2011 This is a very clean scent! It's candy sweet and clean at the same time. The feel reminds me of The Sinner and the Saint since I get all saint and no sinner from that one...clean, light, innocent. This one is sweeter though, like sweet fluffy marshmallow. It reminds me of Easter also! Like when you're a kid and get lots of easter candy.
snowflake Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 Sweet pink candy, young and uplifting like a sunny day. This one reminds me of LP Pink, it's definitely worth a full bottle
kblazin Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Sweet pink candy, young and uplifting like a sunny day. This one reminds me of LP Pink, it's definitely worth a full bottle So funny, I just asked if LP Spring '11 was reminiscent of Pink, then to see the comparison here was a surprise! But not when I think about it, Egg '09 and Pink layer beeeyoootifully together, if Egg '11 is anything like that, OMG...
skye Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 I want to love this. I really do. But I just don't. There's something about it that is overly sweet, almost cloying on me. This totally has the throw that I wish The Smoking Bun had on me. Perhaps if I layer it with something else I'll get a better result. If not, I guess it will be time to start a swap thread.
bumbob Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 What's the difference between Egg2011 and Egg 2009??? The scent smelt a bit metallic on me when I put EGG 2009 on!! Is the Egg 2011 heavier and sweeter???
luna65 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) EGG 2009 has chocolate, whereas EGG 2011 is more like the original, but more sugary; it's lighter than the 2009 version. Edited May 13, 2011 by luna65
bruiseviolet Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Egg 2011 is really sweet, not heavy though. I decided that I like Egg 2009 better because it is not overly sweet.
Guest icing Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) For some reason, this blend absolutely hates my chemistry. It smells like rotting woods and greenery. Nothing more, nothing less. My heart has been shattered, hold me. Edited May 13, 2011 by icing
Potion Master Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 2009 had a touch of cocoa in it that the original and this year's model does not have. Marshmallow, as a rule, wears very sheer and close to the skin. The ingredient has to be weighted heavily to compete with anything else it is used with.
LadyVictoria Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 My heart has been shattered, hold me. This made me snort! LOL
kblazin Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 I'm sure this was covered but I can't find it for the life o me, sorry! Why doesn't Egg 2011 cloud when shaken? The different marshmallow ingredient? I think it makes me feel it smells more different from 2009 than it actually does, also. Like it's missing the weight of 2009, seems less substantial somehow(?), and not just the choco-factor. Maybe I associate the Egg *look* and scent more strongly than I'd realized! So weird
luna65 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 2009 had actual bakers flavoring in it in addition to the fragrance ingredients whereas 2011 does not.
Potion Master Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 2009 had actual bakers flavoring in it in addition to the fragrance ingredients whereas 2011 does not. Yes, back when I first started making EGG, there were NO marshmallow fragrance oils on the market - not from my high end suppliers anyway. So I used baker's flavorings instead, and they needed to be shaken. Finally, ONE of my suppliers came out with a marshmallow scented oil that I thought was comparable to the flavoring....thus, this version does not need to be shaken and doesn't turn white when shaken like the older versions. I used the marshmallow flavoring in the EGG scrub of the month though, and I thought they smelled right close. If that's not the case, we can go back to using the flavoring oil for the next batch.
luna65 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Speaking of the scrub, I accidentally tasted a wee bit of it the other night, and yes it did taste good (BUT NO TYVEY YOU STILL CANNOT EAT IT)! The amber in the original is stronger to me, that's where the main digression is for me, besides the sugary emphasis. Otherwise I'm totally happy with 2011.
tyvey Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 TOO LATE ALREADY "ACCIDENTALLY" REPEATEDLY GOT SOME IN MA MOUF WHILE SCRUBBING FACE
tyvey Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 I put this in my hair today, and it smelled like a *slightly* marshmallified LP Silver. ie delicious. but ?!?!? I know.
JOC Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 I don't know why but this smells so much like Pure Sugar or Erin's Crystalised Web. Will have to dig them out to do a comparison.
NuTrix Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Just ordered THIS one,,,mistakenly thought it was 2009 but it must be 2011. Any new thoughts/reviews on this one? Sweet, light and sugary sound right up my alley!
Bella15 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Egg 2011 was one of my first LP loves, and it is still the one I reach for when I can't decide what to wear. I love every ingredient in it! It is very much a sugary vanilla marshmallow! The white amber and white musk are there, but nothing overwhelming, they just round it out, to make it amazing

NuTrix Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 I get mainly sugar in this one and thus usually use this for layering. Do you think it's heavy enough to scent an UN bottle of Topper or do you think it would be too light for something like that?
luna65 Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 Since there's no cops I would say it would be fine for that.
luna65 Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 This wears exactly the same on me as it has always done, sugary fluff with a slight pink tinge.
