Elizabethm Report post Posted October 17, 2007 The thick, rich smell of custard enveloping sweet rice with a dash of nutmeg. Anyone know any scents that are similiar? I'm not too much a foody fan but the smell of rice pudding (and bread pudding too!) is very sensual to my nose for some whacked reason. Share this post Link to post
pinkpepper Report post Posted October 17, 2007 My sister had a bottle of Sudha Segara I smelled which I recall as being very rice puddingy. Judging by the reviews, a lot of the other forumites agree. By the way, nice question. I adore rice pudding. Share this post Link to post
crimescenecleanup Report post Posted October 17, 2007 (edited) Dana' O Shee is a creamy sweet grain scent to try. Eden is also creamy and sweet, but completely different from Dana'O Shee. Both are worth a try. If you are looking specifically for the type of rice pudding with cinnamon in it, try these. The Chilling Cellar actually reminded me of rice pudding. It has a lovely spice note. Strangler Fig was a spicy vanilla on me. Tombstone in it's drydown phase might also work. (yeah, i know the creamy rice pudding thing was the last thing I expected from Tombstone, but there it was, and a lot of people get it) A lot of people get rice pudding like notes from Wolfsbane, which I think has the same cedar and maybe sassafras, like Tombstone. And of course, Egg'd Mailbox if you can find it. And possibly Egg Nog Edited October 17, 2007 by crimescenecleanup Share this post Link to post
PersephonesChild Report post Posted November 1, 2007 I have nothing to base this on, having not tried it, but I'm convinced that Diwali will smell like rice-pudding when I get it. Share this post Link to post
Delirium1009 Report post Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) I don't know how it compares to the ones before, but I recommend you try out this year's Egg Nog. I tried it on and the boozy note disappeared completely after a few minutes, and I'm left with creamy, yummy egg nog, but it smells a lot like egg custard as well since the booze note went away.

Your results may vary, but when I tried this at will call I got a lot more in the way of tropical fruity drinks. There was a lovely creaminess to it, though! I don't know how it compares to the ones before, but I recommend you try out this year's Egg Nog. I tried it on and the boozy note disappeared completely after a few minutes, and I'm left with creamy, yummy egg nog, but it smells a lot like egg custard as well since the booze note went away. I agree--Egg Nog is totally worth a shot. On my skin chem, it wasn't very boozy, and not as nutmeg-y as I would've hoped, but it definitely had a creamy egg custard thing going!

Elizabethm Report post Posted November 1, 2007 Yep! I agree that egg nog is similiar. Loving the custardy goodness. Share this post Link to post
Wildbriar Report post Posted November 1, 2007 I'd go with Egg'd Mailbox. I'm wearing it right now and it is a very sweet, creamy nutmeg scent. Mmmmmmm Of course, its LE but you might be able to get hold of some. Share this post Link to post

Indefatigable Report post Posted November 3, 2007 Rice pudding would be a neat scent. You could also have Kheer (Indian rice pudding) if it had cardamom and almond/pistachio notes. Share this post Link to post
Thursdae Report post Posted November 4, 2007 I don't have a BPAL rec but I do have one for lotion! Bathed & Infused has a scent called Cinnamon Rice Pudding, which I have in body fluff (a very thick cream) and it smells like you could stick a spoon in it and take a bite. I even imagine I can smell raisins! Share this post Link to post
