Loading... Please wait...This smell is dedicated to Holly's own indolent and mouthy marmalade tabby, Fisher.
Everything warm and soft and marmalade-y she could think of went into this blend. Soft fuzzy stomachs in the sun, the scent of kitty-head as it gets bumped up against your nose, pink toe-pads poking out of peachy fuzz, oh god she could go on and on and eventually just abandon all pretense of coherent speech and start making OOO SMOOCHY-WOO noises. Plus marmalade. :)
Non-cat owners and allergic persons, have no fear. There are no actual cat products in this, unless you consider the distilled essence of helpless doofy affection to be a cat product.
(by 'the distilled essence of helpless doofy affection' we actually mean sweet orange and peach, fuzzy musk, sweetroll accord, and a dab of caramel sauce right on the nose AWWW NOSE, WHO'S GOT A LITTLE KITTYNOSE ON A LITTLE KITTYFACE? YOU DO!)

My favourite of the squees so far, it reminds me of orange pomanders with a heavy dose of cinnamon. The cinnamon is really good, it's a bit foody like a delicious Danish pastry. The peach is noticeable for me and gives it a smoother 'spiced fruit' edge. I love it a lot and I will have to get some in time for the Winter :)
The first thing I thought of smelling this was being outside in the snow with the smells of cinnamon buns and all the holiday food that's sold in the outdoor markets that pop up over the Christmas season. It makes me happy.

This is a really well-crafted, foody, comforting smell. In the bottle and as a soap I just wanted to huff it all day, and when it dries down on my skin it loses that high-octane bakery smell and becomes the "distilled essence of helpless doofy affection." I've always said that my cat smells almost like honey, so I love that that quality is in this perfume. Can't wait to see what the husband thinks :) I wish my whole house smelled like this.

First off, this actually smells really good. Kind of like an orange-y snickerdoodle. Which, as a perfume, I really don't like food smells too much, because they make me hungry. At first, it smells decently strongly, but after about 5 minutes it fades until I can't smell it much at all unless I hold my wrist directly under my nose. However, it is a very nice smell. I actually really want to try it as a soap, I think it'll work a little better.

My first impression of this smell was cinnamon, cinnamon, and more cinnamon. It smelled more like a cinnamon jawbreaker or big red gum than anything to do with marmalade. I thought that maybe the cinnamon smell would fade after wearing it for a while, but none of the other notes really made an appearance before the scent had faded all together. If I try, I can smell a bit of orange-iness and baked-goods-iness immediately after opening the bottle, but on my skin there is nothing but sharp cinnamon. Maybe this smell just doesn't work well with my skin chemistry.

Warning! Do not use if you are hungry, or you will suddenly be hungry. Everyone around you will be hungry and there will be a mass exodus for donuts.
This scent is a dead ringer for those orange iced cinnamon rolls. Hot and fresh from the oven, and oh god you've put the icing on. Wafting cinnamon, sweet sticky icing, and the warm nostalgic feelings that come with it.
