Raq On Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Whoopsy Daisy cake smelled heavenly in the vial but didn't work on me. I am trying this one hoping for a different outcome. The label is my favorite from this month. Mara, I remember you telling me (after I mentioned that some blends with vanilla go wonky on me) that there are different kinds of vanillas (food type vs. scent type maybe?) which one is in this?

LadyVictoria Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Hell to the yeah. I am obsessed with anything cake. I ran to the cupcake shop in the hopes of finding a Highlander, he wasn't there ,but I came home with macaroons and a dozen mini cupcakes and 2 big ones.

I am totally with you on this. Whoopsy did the same thing to me. Weird because I love all the other cakey ones. Maybe this one will work better for both of us.

Potion Master Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 This one actually works better on me than Daisycake. I wore it out on the town tonight! YMMV, though on me this ends up being very much like delicious gooey cake batter and the flower just accentuates the sweetness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowflake Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Is this a man's perfume or unisex? I'm a bit confused about the comparison with Whoopsy Daisycake which is more suitable for women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NuTrix Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 This one in the bottle is definitely more foodie than floral...the floral is complimentary. I haven't worn it yet but it smells great in the bottle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyVictoria Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 This was very floral on me, it reminded me of Rosie's Wedding Cake and Aloha P for some reason. I don't get any cakes notes yet, I think my skin is amping florals big time right now, so I think I should wait a few days. My skin is always weird after my period, so that could be the reason why I don't get any delicious cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuTrix Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I wore this one back on Wednesday and I think it's divine! I LOVE the daffodil. It jumps out of the vial all sweet goodness...my husband said it smelled like caramel cheesecake to him, lol. I get the sweetness but the daffodil stayed prominent and eventually became a yummy creamy delight...This one's going to be a favorite I can tell!

missdarlyncherie Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 This one does work better on me than Daisycake. It is way cakier where DC was way daisy-er. Like Victoria said it reminds me of Aloha P a bit (not sure how since that one is a lot of gardenia...I think). Hmmm...I think it would be great with Gotcha! I'm not over the moon with this one right now but I think it will have a big following!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raq On Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 All I got was the flower. Times 10000. I had to wash this off :-( I really wanted this to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBear Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Oooh, this is nice! This is how it would smell if you were standing next to a white wedding cake adorned with flowers. A perfect combination of white cake and daffodils. It's light and foody but as it drys down, it gets deeper and more like floral perfume. It's not old ladyish, though. I like this for spring!

Bella15 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 At first, I get a blast of buttercreme, which isn't my favorite note. It dries down to a floral vanilla... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosebud Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Oh, I had such high hopes for this one. I was hoping that it might become my replacement for Whoopsie D (when I eventually run out), but unfortunately this one does exactly what Aloha Pumehana did I think it's the buttercream that goes a bit haywire. It totally dominates the scent & has an almost maple syrup type quality. I don't get any floral notes from this at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyVictoria Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 It's so weird about the buttercream.. Some buttercream works for me but others don't. For example the buttercream in La Fleur and BBM and even RoseButterCream water - is beautiful , but for some weird reason this and Aloha P turned all weird and overly floral and rancid.

Mrschrissyrez Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I really like this one...it's a perfect mix of cake and floral on me. I'm glad I got a fb. I'm thinking this would also be fun to layer with other LP's to make it more cakey, or more floral too. I love when a perfume is so versatile!!

tyvey Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Wet, the floral didn't work for me- it was a kind that I personally don't like, heady, magnolia or gardenia like. Within about half an hour that has completely vanished and it's thick and creamy, reminds me of A Lick of Cream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggers Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 This is really cuddly! With all the comparisons to Aloha Pumehana, I thought this would be a little heavier-wearing, but it's very light. Cake-y and light. So far, only a teeny-tiny hit of floral. I'm really happy with how this is wearing. It feels like it wants a snuggly phero, but I don't know if it's strong enough to cover Cuddle Bunny. I suppose my next choice would be Gotcha!, since it has a real snuggly vibe, too. Or maybe even H&S. Hmm... Can't get my nose off my arm for some reason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loquacious Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I was scared of this one since it smelled a little like smoked meat when I first put it on. So weirddd. Fortunately it dried down and definitely reminded me of Aloha Pumehana, but with a floral ring to it that lasted longer than the buttercream.

cinnamonmel Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 wow this wafts between something gorgeous and something weirdly daisylike that I'm not sure about. It's worth wearing anyway because the bit i love, i love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luna65 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 For me, much like Whoopsie Daisycake I get more of the floral aspect than the gourmand. However, I do like daffodil (and it's my flower, birthmonth-wise), so it's pretty. The background is smooth and creamy but not enough that I would really identify it as foody. I don't know that I'd wear this, really, but it's okay in terms of my chemistry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Ducky Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 . . . and it's the daffodil that kills it for me! Mel already noted it -- the floral comes out as daisy-like and ruins the delicious foodie notes. Well, at least that's what my bad-awful chemistry does to it. And I had soooo wanted to love this one, mainly as an excuse to keep Jimmy on my countertop! LOVE the bold new avi, Luna! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
