DATE CARAMEL 100ML BY PARIS CORNER

100 out of 10 for the gourmand ladies ❤️😍❤️

Awesome and delicious 🥰

This smells incredible! I heard mixed reviews about this, so I was a bit worried to purchase it, but it sounded so lovely I just had to get it. When I first sprayed this, it smelled like strong rum and caramel. The caramel was rich and thick, a very beautiful scent; and the rum was overpowering (but I love a boozy note in perfumes so I really enjoyed it). Once it settles, after about 5 minutes, the rum scent completely disappears, and it smells like syrupy dates, caramel, and chocolate. The scent is a thick, heavy gourmand. The more it dries down, there’s a lactonic, milky, vanillic quality that comes out and blends so beautifully with the other notes. The scent goes from being rich and dense to far more airy. In my opinion, it smells very similar to Eclaire by Lattafa, but with more caramel and chocolate nuances. If you like Eclaire (I love Eclaire) chances are high that you will love this perfume as well. They are not the same, but they have similarities. This isn’t too heavy to wear in the summer because of the airy, sugary quality that it has. I don’t get any coffee note in this fragrance; only dates, caramel, milk, chocolate, vanilla, and sugar. It smells delicious. I’ve asked my fiance and family members what they think, and they all love it. My fiance said it replaced Eclaire as his favorite of my perfumes lol. The longevity is amazing. If I sleep in the scent, I can smell it when I wake up, and it CLINGS to clothing. It projects fairly strong for the first two hours and then fades to a moderate to low projection, where only people close to you can smell it. But the scent bubble is persistent, I can smell it on my shoulders whenever I turn my head. For anyone curious about whether it smells like Sticky Dates, I would have to say not really. I personally don’t really like that fragrance. To me, it smelled like linear date syrup with sugar (which translated to it being very maple-syrupy imo). It didn’t have caramel notes or anything else to it that people mentioned. To be fair, the lush near me seems to have a lot of fragrances that either turned, or I really just don’t like Lush fragrances. This perfume is richer and more complex, and smells more like a perfume composition than a one-note blend, if that makes sense. I highly recommend this one!

Practically a dessert on the skin. Long lasting and deliciously edible scent that will have you in a scent bubble at arms length for hours. It smells like the best toffee, plays well with boozy notes (am looking at you Angel Share) and even brings out power against fruity notes like cherry or raspberry or apple. This one is a power house, so expect to get projection and longevity here.

I'm giving this 5 stars because it smells really good, but for a man. Now , now scents are subjective and this perfume can absolutely fall under unisex, but my nose feels it falls on the masculine side of scents. Regardless, it smells divine and if I smelled this on a man I'd absolutely ask what they were wearing and give a compliment. The perfume almost smells like leather, with a smokey carmel, date like smell. I know my description is absolutely horrible, but with the price point it might be something worth to buy to smell for yourself. This to me is a masculine scent that would smell good on anybody. It also mixes well with other perfumes. I mix it to add depth to some of my other perfumes.

Sweet , sticky, a bit like licorice but that fades I the down. Somehow this one is sweet for 6 hours. Passerby’s said I smelled so good and sweet! There’s a bit of a sharp plastic synthetic smell upon first spraying. Please know this does go away. It’s gone about 5 mins later. Left with a delicious warm sweetness! If you eat dates you know the specific sweetness that comes with it. Don’t smell much else other than dates licorice vanilla and coffee for richness. Best in fall and winter maaaybe early spring when it’s chilly.

When I first got this, I couldn't wait! I am a gourmand lover, and I didn't want the caramel one because Im afraid of the popcorn note. I watched reviews online of people raving over this one. How sweet, decant, caramelly, a Sticky Dates dupe, etc. When I first got it, the burst of aroma was horrendous. It was nauseating. It was molasses, prunes, some chemical disgusting rancid note, it was 20 out of 10 strong, literally made me ill! I literally wanted to puke! I packed it right back up and said, "NO WAY! ITS NOT HAPPENING!" I kept hearing more rave reviews, let it sit packed away for 2 weeks, and thought, "why/HOW is this so hyped up?" Just out of curiousity I gave it another try. I dont know what the heck happened, but it transformed! It smells like rum raisin ice cream and is here to stay!!!! MACERATION IS A MUST!!!! I now believe the whole "let it sit" thing. It is true!
