Creamy Tide

a gorgeous and understated creamy fruity floral! the evolution of the notes was actually in a different order on my skin: at first i could only smell the rice milk accord and it was quite savory (can understand the video's comparison to d'annam strawberry mochi), without any hints of the fruit on my skin for a while. after maybe 30 minutes or so the savory rice milk faded a lot and then i could smell the florals and fruits on a creamy base, really beautifully balanced where the floral, fruit, and creamy components felt very even and complimented each other; sometimes i like it when a note i prefer stands out compared to the others, but here i think it works better that they all feel like they're holding hands. feels cozy and soft but in a slightly elevated way, and longevity is decent; after 8 hours on my skin i can still smell it on my wrist (though the sillage is more intimate) and it's like a soft, sweet version of 'my skin but better.' could wear this for different occasions and settings, from a cozy bedtime scent before sleeping to the office to casual lunch or coffee runs. so happy to have this for spring but will probably wear this in all seasons!

It’s a very cozy creamy scent that I finally get to add to my collection. I can see how some say that this is a novelty scent however if you want something with a fruity creamy rice note , this is it.
