doomsday_disco Report post Posted October 11 Sometimes we find it purely impossible to function without the kind of hot drink that leaves an oil slick in the cup. Here’s a crisp apple cider scent for those who can relate, complete with melted buttery swirl. Please note: this oil is vegan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
splendidissima Report post Posted Wednesday at 10:26 AM Oh, gosh, first! Let's see... I do really like this one! But I like the Lab's cider note and also buttery notes - and this has both, at least on me! It's the same cider that's in the other NYCC oils: bright apples, soft spices, a whisper of sweetness. (I've always loved the Lab's cider note, back in the Fearful Pleasure days, and such...) Here, it's also joined by the same butter / cream note that's in scents like White Larry - warm, rich, something I can only describe as "melted butter-y"! It actually goes very nicely with the cider - adding a slightly savory, buttery, richness to the bright cider. If you like those things, you will probably like this, and if you don't, then you likely won't! (For an odd fleeting moment about half an hour after putting it on, I got something...vaguely reminiscent of BPAL's Jack? I'm not sure what prompted that scent association, but I definitely thought, "oh, this kind of reminds me of Jack! ...but, wait, why? but it made me have that scent memory!" That seems to've faded now.) Oddly, this one fades the fastest on me out of all the NYCC cider scents - maybe something about the butter note and skin chemistry?

doomsday_disco Report post Posted Wednesday at 06:47 PM This was very much about the hot buttered aspect of the scent on me -- very sweet, buttery, and creamy -- with only a little cider lurking in the background. Alas, it is too sweet and buttery for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
