Review of Dream Eau de Parfum by Sarah Chabal

Warm spicy, vanilla, woody, powdery, sweet, floral, cinnamon, cacao, warm, amber, lactonic, rich, decadent, feminine, sophisticated, sensual seductive, charming, whimsical, dreamy, delightful, delicious, alluring, tempting, intoxicating, addictive, intriguing, cozy, comforting, unique On me this opens super delicious with rich butter, warm spicy cinnamon, and cacao which melts into a heart of creamy sandalwood, decadent caramel, and powdery vanilla orchid. The dry down envelopes you in sensual vanilla, the golden warmth of amber, and woody vetiver. The dry down reads like a honeyed woody vanilla. The most prominent notes on me are the cinnamon butter, vanilla, caramel, and sandalwood. This is super yummy and gourmand! It’s rich, decadent, and delightfully delicious! It has the most wonderful bakery-like notes! It’s like floating on the most delicious fluffy cloud past the best bakery in town. It’s really well done though, well balanced and well blended. It’s one of the decadent gourmands that doesn’t come off as juvenile. It’s actually quite sophisticated. The woody accords keep the decadent gourmand notes from being too sweet, overdone, or cloying. It’s this perfect balance between sweet and rich gourmand, and cozy woody notes. I particularly enjoy the cinnamon and butter notes with the vanilla and caramel. I also love how I get a honey scent particularly during the dry down. At the moment, I only have a sample of this, but I love it so much that I’ll be adding a bottle of this to my collection! I find this to be very unique! I can’t say that I’ve ever smelled anything quite like this before, and I’m a huge gourmand fan! I only see a slight similarity to some of the fragrances in the “reminds me” section, as this is more decadent, and has the delicious cinnamon butter accord. I get a slight reminiscence to VS Bare Sueded Vanilla, Nest Vanilla Bourbon, Phlur Vanilla Skin, and Replica Afternoon Delight To me this feels feminine, and suitable for women of any age. I think this works best during the fall and winter because of its sweet decadence and coziness. Think it’s most fitting for casual occasions and date nights, but can also be worn to work/school. I get great performance with Dream. The longevity is strong as it lasts throughout the entire day on my skin. The projection is moderate to strong as it radiates out at least a few feet from me.
