Sacke & Sugar

[doomsday_disco]

Sweetly diabolical, a mischievous twist on the infernal. Rich butter melts into caramelized sugar, vanilla marshmallow, a delicate touch of cream and milky musk, and the warm, comforting aroma of fresh-baked bread rolls.

Please note: this oil contains butter CO2 extract.

A friend brought me a batch of almond cookies studded with cherries this morning. I ate one and then I decided to wear Sacke & Sugar about an hour later, and I was surprised that this scent reminds me of those cookies. I get a lot of sweetness from the sugar and then what smells like fluffy almond cake. I can smell the sharp, sugary cherry of almond extract very strongly. There's a whiff of movie theater popcorn butter for a while, and then it's all fluffy cake drenched in almond extract and sugar syrup. 

 

I wanted more cream, milk, marshmallow, butter and bread, as per the description. I'm disappointed that I bought two bottles of this one because almond extract is one of my least favorite scents.

I got a bottle of this on a lark to travel along with my Griezzell Greedigutt bottles- I hadn't even tested it at NYCC when I had the opportunity but I suspected, based on notes alone, that this would be a keeper, and it sure is!

In the bottle, the butter, sugar and cream are all up close and personal and the richness of the blend are practically mouth-watering.

HOWEVER, that changed pretty quickly on application, so if you're not a fan of gourmand scents, do not just write this off- you want to skin test before making up your mind.

After warming and through full dry-down, the scent morphed a few times in subtle ways until the end result was quite a bit different than where we started, and now I've got a lovely vanilla skin musk that reminds me more of the blossom and less the bean. There's quite a bit of warmth with this scent and I imagine I'll get alot of daytime wear out of this over the next 4 or 5 months of winter weather. This is the scent equivalent of curling up in a soft oversized sweater and reading a book on a snowy day. It's really one of those "comfort in a bottle" kinds of scents.

Mid-throw, so dab sparingly until you know how it'll go with your personal chemistry. I anticipate wearing this also to bed, and likely layering this with any scent that feels like it needs more grounding or more sweet warmth.

Testing my decant and was not expecting to really like this, because butter and cream/milk blends do not work on me. Well I'm happy to be wrong here! 

 

Initially the butter is there, but it quickly dries down to a rich blend that is quite gourmand, but not in a cloying way. The notes all blend well, and this became a warm skin scent, slightly musky and with a touch of the bread note, very much like the smell of warm bread fresh out of the oven. I'm really glad I decided to get a decant to test!
