Parisienne rose, fresh and green, joins nasturtium and iris as tendrils of sweet macarons and madeleines fill the air
This is a totally different scent than the new
AmbiEscents Venice Gondolas. It smells like a raspberry macaron with almonds and roses, a hint of coconut, and a lot of milk. It's very milky, not overly "bakery" (more like raspberry almond milk) and not overly sweet. It's a unique scent and I really like it. I've smelled this scent before, a long time ago, and I thought it might be the same as a 2016 scent by AmbiEscents called
Strawberry Macaroon, which I described the same way (and no longer have to compare), but the notes are different (fruity strawberry, sweet orange and red berries with creamy vanilla and coconut macaroon). It's a bit similar to
ScentSationals Pink Velvet, but that scent had more of the almond and less fruity sweetness. Looking at the notes, there's the rose and macarons!
The Meijer website shows the notes for this scent as, "Freshly shaved coconut flakes toasted with brown sugar and cinnamon spice.", which is not accurate, as this scent has zero cinnamon or brown sugar notes, so the Meijer version may in fact be a third different scent with this same name and label.
