Divisive yet popular, Fresh Cream Soft Velvet is a curious blend of soft gourmand and clean floral. Some call it an elevated chocolate milk, others barely detect the gourmand notes at all. Definitely a 'try before you buy' situation to see what develops on your skin.

About

Opens with a fleeting, sharp kick of ginger, quickly mellowing into a prominent lily heart. While official notes promise dark chocolate and vanilla in the drydown, many find these subtle, with the lily maintaining its airy presence. The overall effect is a clean, slightly sweet, and creamy floral, with hints of gourmand warmth. It's often compared to luxury soaps or hair products more than a rich dessert.
