snowflake Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Am I the first to review this one? I can't believe it. Well, I rceived Purple Pastry today, opened the bottle and took a whiff of light lavender, soft vanilla, but so far couldn't detect the coconut. I rolled it on my wrists, let it settle for 20 minutes. Yeah, I get some coconut, but it's still very faint. The lavender is lovely, quite different from other lavender scents which I have. This would be also nice as a spray, or boosted with H&S or G2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrschrissyrez Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Is the lavender sharp? I love the lavender in PurplePuff, it's so sheer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowflake Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 Is the lavender sharp? I love the lavender in PurplePuff, it's so sheer. The lavender in this one is not sharp at all. In fact, it's very sheer. Purple Pastry reminds me a bit of Purple Puff, but the lavender in P.Pastry is a tad lighter than in P.Puff. I love both.

dolphindolls2 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Do you think this would make a good bed time scent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyVictoria Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 This one smelled a little perfumey to me for some reason. I was expecting a coconut version of Purple Puff or Midnight Snack and wet this is a bit sharp and cold. Almost like there is some alcohol in there. After a while I can detect some lavender. I have to retest as it could be my skin chemistry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowflake Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 Do you think this would make a good bed time scent? Definitely. I was wearing it when I went to bed and I had a wonderful sleep. Lady V, I also didn't get any coconut right after application, but after a few minutes the scent developed wonderfully on my skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenergal Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I am really loving this and couldn't be happier! My first application was not good because I got this the same day I started my cycle and I couldn't smell hardly anything. Sniffer was totally off. Then I tried it about a week later and I could smell only sweet, kind of strong, lavender but it layered beautifully with Purple Puff. After that I wore it by itself (and some BBM because I always wear cops now) and it smells fantastic! I get the lavender which quickly morphs to coconut lavender and then it is coconut lavender vanilla sugar. I think it needed a bit of time to age and my nose, plus a cold, really was throwing everything off. It is so comforting and just what I was looking for. I hope you don't get tired of hearing this, but Mara YOU ROCK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calii Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 HAH,you got the last one in the cart,unless Da Mara has more put aside for sprays ...I don't sleep with a pillow but have them on my bed and use a nice roll on one edge of pillowcase that I use just this for <about an before bedtime> ... it will leave an oil stain,but I don't care ...also have a cotton floatie summer dress hanging in the bathroom that I just dab some on,every few days,or so after a few hours it smells wonderful...makes me smile.

Mrschrissyrez Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Yup, I think I got the last one. Using a certain pillowcase is a good idea. I'm going to try that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VexedGlory Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 After reading that it was the same lavender from Fuzzy Wuzzy, I knew I had to snag a bottle somehow. So off to the trade threads I went and I tried it on the second I received mine. I'm so happy that it's the same sense of lavender! Now I can't wait to see how it pairs with BBM to add to the lavender vanilla vibe. In the meantime, on its own, I am in lavender heaven. I don't really get any coconut but I do get a powdery musk sense in the drydown (maybe that's the coconut?!). In that sense, it is calming and baby powdery fresh.
