Snif Hot Cakes Eau de Toilette

Most Helpful Critical Review

Definitely not for me

As somebody who is such a sweet scent, gourmand girl, this was a major disappointment. i smelt vanilla vice in store and loved it, but i've always liked a sweet, syrupy smell so i figured i'd pick up the last hot cakes they had in store, despite them not having a tester for it. boy did i make the wr...ong choice. it smells quite sickening in my opinion and is definitely something that, subjectively, less people would enjoy. So definitely not a scent to expect to get chased down or frequently complimented for. i made the mistake of applying the perfume right out of the box, got picked up by my boyfriend, and he literally had to roll the windows down as he found the scent to be so unpleasant. i was expecting a syrupy, crem brulee type of scent, but they werent lying when they said that actual pancakes were in the notes as well. the actual hotcake note itself i think is what's throwing me off, it has a weird sorta plastic-y smell to it. if you are like me and instantly expect to love this because you also enjoy the sweet smell of syrup, please smell this in store first as it was definitely a disappointing blind buy for me. i really wanted to love this, but i had to leave this review; i have never worn a perfume i found to be so bad that i had to spray the first body mist in sight all over me to try to get rid of the smell. just take it from me you do not want to blind buy this one based on your impression of the notes in it, give it a try first!
