StacyK Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) I want but my 2011 bottle is almost brand New Anyone note any differences? Edited April 29, 2014 by StacyK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 No one would, at this point. But when M and I discussed it the main impression I got is that this version is closer to the original, no chocolate or pink sugar notes like the variants.

NuTrix Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 At least 1 bottle...easy....even though I have hoarded the 2011s. Doesn't matter. Must have. Resistance is futile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amalthea1978 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I can't wait for this! I LOVE my bottle of Egg 2011. I haven't smelled any other version of Egg, so I've really got my fingers crossed that I'll like this one as well. At least 1 bottle...easy....even though I have hoarded the 2011s. Doesn't matter. Must have. Resistance is futile. And I am jealous of your hoard! I rarely buy more than one bottle of anything - the scents I REALLY like I've bought a backup bottle when possible. Egg 2011 is one that I like well enough to buy a backup bottle, if I ever find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish eyes Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I have really been thinking of a vanilla-white musk PE so this is great. If the marshmallow is anything like Flying Potion, I can only imagine it being fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't smelled any other version of Egg, so I've really got my fingers crossed that I'll like this one as well. Diito! 2011 is the only EGG I've encountered too. Now II can make one into a spray! I tend to slather this so a good fogging now and again will be nice I don't know how much re-brews vary - plus I don't think I first sniffed 2011 until 2012, who knows how it aged by the time it got under my sniffer?? Or how 2014 may as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 There is a smooth soft delicate quality definitely just like the original, but it also has a sugary vibe like 2011, so it's the best of both and as such, utterly delicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuTrix Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 This one is dreamy! I will have to pull out 2011 and snoffle them side by side but this (2014) is stand alone deliciousness. This one has caramelized sugars too, which I don't see in 2011. I know I hoarded a fair share of Marsha Mellow. It was EGG 2011 that got me hooked on marshmallow scents. I wonder, shall I forever be surprised at how elegant a foodie scent can be? This is such a warm, friendly and inviting, snuggly scent. I wonder how it would stand up to a boost of Sexology, CB or Lace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueBear Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I didn't care much for Egg before, but I kinda like this. It's sweet fluff with a hint of creamy musk. Nothing more, nothing less. On me it's rich and deep but light at the same time. Wears forever and a day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyvey Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I slathered this am and immediately yelled "OMG so delicious" and cackled like a cartoon villain. It reminded me of kanary kremes for some reason. Doesn't throw a lot but it's sneaky how long it hangs on - well over 12 hours it was still going strong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish eyes Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 (edited) I am loving this one. Light and sweet but as tyvey and Blue Bear said, it lasts a long time. Wet it seems to only be a suggestion of a scent on me but blooms n my skin to the sweet vanilla musk scent I love. Glad I got a FB of this stuff and may need more!!!

Amalthea1978 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 So my order came today and this was the first one I tried out. There's always the possibility of travel shock, but at first sniffing I find this one to be VERY similar to Egg 2011. That's the only other Egg I've tried so far, and I love love love it, so I'm super happy with this re-brew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveStruck Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) I have really been thinking of a vanilla-white musk PE so this is great. If the marshmallow is anything like Flying Potion, I can only imagine it being fantastic. I'm still such a dang freshman at this note stuff that I can't remember from day to day what I'm actually gravitating towards...guess I need to get out the list of what I have/love so far and see which "notes" are in the lead. I got Flying Potion... L O V E it immensely. So is there a definite similarity (i.e. the marshmallow?)Then I could very well be a blossoming marshmallow junkie.

NuTrix Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 EGG 2011 made me realize my love of the marshmallow...then came Marsha Mellow...of course the Flying potion - YUM!

ElizabethOSP Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) OMIGODOMIGODOMIGOD!!! I can actually WEAR Egg 2014 without my skin eating it alive!!! :hearts0425: :hearts0425: :hearts0425: :hearts0425: *Whew!* Sorry for yelling. I am so happy! This is such a pretty scent, and for some reason this time around it *stays* around. WOOT! Everyone has described it better than I could over the years, so I won't even try. Just wanted to say that IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Edited May 21, 2014 by ElizabethOSP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amalthea1978 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 So I gave this one a full day's wear, and I think I love it just as much as 2011. 2014 does seem to have a bit more of a "perfume-y" smell to me. It's not strong enough for me to dislike it, I think it just adds to the yumminess. This is the first LP that I've tried two different re-brews of one perfume, so it was definitely a bit of an experiment for me. I love it though, it's similar enough that I like it just as much, but just a tiny bit different so that I don't feel like I'm buying the same thing. I actually just got a bottle of 2009 from the trading post which I haven't tried out yet, so I'm curious to compare that one too! It also does have pretty good lasting power on me, but then so does 2011, Oh yeah, and this is definitely my favorite Egg label so far, but then I'm a sucker for animals.

StacyK Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I have not had much of a chance to wear 2014. But I did dab away the day it got here. The '11 has a bit of pinkness to it. This one is all "white" or pure, in the sense that I don't get extra notes or variants. It's just a step more than a "skin scent" but works similarly to my nose. It's obvious it will be very layerable. As always, I love me some marshmallow root!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuTrix Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I love 14! Wow! And the staying power! It stays pretty true through the entire wear, not a lot of morphing - so far. But it stayed pristine w/o re-application for more than12 hours. Absolutely freaking fantastic. I still love11 but I may need to increase my stash of 14 if it's still around next time I order!

irish eyes Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) I agree on the lasting power of this one. Subtle but there....love the musk note. Edited May 24, 2014 by irish eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hearts Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I think this version is my favorite "Egg"! Just powdery, subtle marshmallow musk. The white amber isn't stabbing my eyes.. It's such a delicate, pretty scent. I'm wondering if I need an FB... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveStruck Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) I'm SO looking forward to getting Egg (and my backup bottle of NEW - first one is nearly gone!) Edited June 2, 2014 by LoveStruck55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish eyes Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Continuing to love this one. It is so light but it lasts most of the day. I am a big fan of the White amber/White musk combo in this scent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuTrix Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 The staying power of this one is scummilicious! Granted, I maaaay, slather the teensiest bit... To hoard more or not o hoard more...always the question.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveStruck Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I really like EGG... but I don't love it (like I love NEW). I think I must be the only one that doesn't love it!!! For me, it's just too sweet - I had hoped the musk and amber would balance out the sugars for me, and be more of a sexy grown up scent, if you will. I will say, if I use it sparingly, it's a subtle, uplifting vibe after about 10 min. Wet and early on, I feel like my skin is a layer of rich, sugary fondant with crystalline sugar sprinkles all over it. Definitely fun; I'm not disappointed that I got it, given the hefty legacy of "EGG" in the SO section of the perfumerie. However,there are so many others that I would reach for before it! I will let it age awhile - which has already proven wise a number of times. Thou shalt not decree final judgement on a scent in the first "go around"....

SirenSong Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I do not have any of the other “Eggs”, so I am going strictly off the 2014 version. It is everything I have always wanted. My daughter wanted a “vanilla” perfume and we are sharing this. It is soft, simple, white, sweet, and smells delicious if you are a vanilla fan. Both my husband and I are big vanilla fans, me being the powdery vanilla fan. It is sweet and clean, kind of like Sneaky Clean, but without the “sneaky” or florals, the amber and musk adding just enough depth. It smells the same out of the bottle as it does on and dried down. At first, I thought it was a disappearer, but I think it just wears close to the skin as it was always there all day long and even the next morning when I woke up. Forget having to request the perfect vanilla scent, Mara already made it! January is my “vanilla month”, so this one is a perfect symbolic perfume for new beginnings.

Blanche Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Is Egg somehow similar to Sogni Incantati? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Not really, mainly because Sogni has anise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanche Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Ok. I don't know how strong the anise is, hence my question. The other ingredients seemed fairly similar to me. At least I will not have 2 similar scents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanche Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 So I got the Egg 2014 in the august sale. I thought it would be different. I like it, but I could live without it. To me, it is nice vanilla scent and I would say it is pretty sheer. I can't smell it as much as I would like to and so can't others (I assume). I also got the Sogni incantati, so now I can compare. To me, it is similar, but the Sogni is more pronounced, so to say. And I detect some apricot note from it. Egg is more "straight vanilla" to me. I like both, but I have other LPs that I love.

Maroon Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Love the Egg 2014! I got one in the sale, liked the scent well enough, and decided it to wear it a few days in a row. At a party, we sat around the fire outside and the warmth really amped it. Husband came close and said: did you put on more perfume? You smell great! And the other day at an outing, after a vigorous walk, one of the ladies next to me got all excited: what's that smell? It's sooo Lovely! Great foodie scent that really blooms with increased body heat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBirkeys Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I have not tried any of the previous versions of Egg to be able to compare, but this version is lovely. It's a very light scent. When it first came out 3 years ago I liked it, but didn't love it. I tried it again more recently and since it has had time to age it has a lot more depth. It's a creamy, white and slightly sweet amber musk. The marshmallow is more apparent which I love. It reminds me a bit of Sugared Egyptian Musk. Makes a great scent for the office...I could smell it hours after applying...Egg 2014 has now become a like/love potion which I reach for frequently!!
