Melanie Martinez Cry Baby Perfume Milk is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Catherine Selig. Cry Baby Perfume Milk opens with Red Fruits, Milk, and Strawberry, settles into a heart of Powdery, and dries down to a base of Woody and Caramel. Melanie Martinez's Cry Baby Perfume Milk carries a Statement verdict, a lactonic-led wear.

Divisive, nostalgic, and overhyped, this scent promises strawberry milk but delivers a powdery, woody, and slightly tart fruity experience. Love it or loathe it, for a perfume once aimed at teens, it certainly creates strong opinions.

About

Imagine a bowl of strawberries, not overly sweet, blended with warm, comforting milk and a generous dusting of face powder. As it settles, caramel adds a layer of creamy indulgence, eventually giving way to a subtle, woody base. It evokes a sense of childhood innocence, like playing with vintage dolls.
