A Happy New Year to You

Snowy vanilla slush, chilled coconut rice, and condensed milk.

[Brianna Gemini]

Initial impressions.  I expected this to potentially read too sweet with the condensed milk but it's not at all.  This fits right in with the "snowball" collection.  No pine or mint I detect.  A chilly vanilla creamy snow cone. I'm wearing 4 new, and I keep gravitating back to this one today.  Close throw, medium wear.

This one features a dry (like, the cold air is nipping at your nose) snow note (I don't really get any vanilla from it, alas!) with some coconut rice and creamy condensed milk in the background (the latter of which is missing in action at first, but becomes more noticeable later). I am not getting any evergreen or minty-ness from it like with some of the other snow notes from the Lab. It ends up settling into that dry snow scent with some cool coconut by the end of the day.

 

While this isn't something I could see myself reaching for, I do think it was fun to try it. I would have never imagined a perfume with snow and rice together!

Slightly chilled (not minty or piney snow- something more along the lines of Snow White but different still) sweet coconut rice. The rice note is very prominent on me, that gorgeous sweet-starchy note.

I get mostly fresh, meaty, coconut flesh (not the overtly sweet or plasticky kind, more like cracking open a fresh one), a nice creamy rice note, kinda like rice pudding but again not too sweet, and a little bit of fresh, dry ice cubes in a glass instead of slush (Roseus is right no pine or mint). The milky note is not sour or tangy at all to me and along with the vanilla (lite) holds this together making it creamy. 

 

The snow dude looked really sad, so we invited him to a party and had chilly coconut rice drinks over ice and it was awesome!
