fall travel perfume mist

I wanted to love this one, but unfortunately the beginning notes are a bit overwhelming for me, like the "warm vanilla sugar" scent from Bath & Body Works (I find that to be too artificial and cloying). I'm assuming it's the white pumpkin scent itself, because after it dried down for a little bit it became much more tolerable and reminded me of the retired Gingersnaps fragrance, or general sandalwood and vanilla base notes in other perfumes I've tried. Overall, not terrible, but just not my favorite from my order.

I want to know what kind of sorcery or witchcraft went into this one, because somehow Moonlit Embers perfectly captures the smell of a bonfire and toasted marshmallows. I’ve *never* found an item with this scent description that actually achieved it. Everything else I’ve found was too marshmallow-forward and cloying. Somehow you got the warm wood, sweet smoke, and toasty marshmallow scents authentically in this fragrance and it’s blowing my mind. It is a little strong at the start with the smoke scent, so I’d say a little can go a long way, but otherwise an AMAZING product!

Overall, a really great fall scent! But unfortunately for me, it reminds me way too much of the apple pie candles my mom would always get, and doesn’t quite feel “right” for a personal fragrance. I’m sure for others who didn’t get tired of the same candle smell their entire childhood, this is a 5 out of 5. I do like it enough to keep using it, though, just in little doses.

The fall collection smells amazing! Perfect!
