American Cream

i smell like a fairy that sleeps in waterfalls and spends time sitting on flowers. smells literally so good, i’m surprised this scent hasn’t gone viral.

I’ve had a long lasting love for the American Cream conditioner and, after a bit of deliberation thought I’d give the perfume a go.

It’s absolutely wonderful!

Obviously the scent will slightly differ from person to person, however after only using 2 spritz the scent lingered all day. I can’t detect any strawberry notes although this hasn’t taken away from the overall quality. A balance of vanilla, sage and lavender make up a (not overly) sweet, warm and playful aroma.

In short it’s an amazingly beautiful and not overly complex perfume; if I could bathe in it I absolutely would. All we need now is an American Cream shower gel!

On my skin, American Cream smells like those swirled strawberry and yoghurt boiled sweets - but not the sweet ones - the tart, fresh and tangy ones! I was hoping for creamy and sweet, so was a tad disappointed. After an hour or so, it settles into baby powder with a strawberry edge. My mum asked if I'd put a load of scented talc on! It isn't an offensive scent whatsoever, and a good blind buy for most people if you like powdery scents, but I prefer sweeter, more rounded scents. However, I did discover something which this scent does remarkably well: it is the master of layering! It takes the edge off other perfumes, tones them down. On my skin Turmeric Latte turns to play-doh, until I layer it with AC, then it's non-existent and I only get it's delicious, comforting smoky scent. Dry down of Confetti a bit sweet? I just layer it with AC and it takes the edge off. I'll be buying this little beauty frequently just to layer with other scents I like!

I got this as a gift because I was obsessed after smelling it in the shop. It goes on smelling like a slightly fruity baby powder and I find that it almost fades to a delicate parma violet smell, it’s gorgeous!
