NOSTALGIA PERFUME SUNDAY AFTERNOON REVIEW TV
The base notes of TV are similar to those found in Tobacco Vanille.
Aromatic and indulgent, these three notes give a wonderful depth and range to this fragrance. The heart notes of TV are sweet vanilla and cocoa, and earthy, musky tobacco blossom. Together, these two ingredients create a warm, sweet, and earthy atmosphere that has a hint of nostalgia combined with steadfast conviction. The top notes of TV are sweet and earthy tobacco leaf paired with the nuanced scent of tonka bean. Like the original, TV mixes a selection of warm, spicy, and woody accords to create a sumptuous and lavish aroma that is the olfactory articulation of confidence and intrigue.
For cheap Tobacco Vanille, TV is the perfect choice. TV captures the same creamy, tobacco scents present in the original, without the extraordinary price tag. As the scent warms up as if by rays of the sun, the soft floral petals suddenly pop and become crunchy toasted popcorn.”Īvailability: Department/drugstores in Asia that stock Anna Sui fragrances or Strawberry.TV is Copycat’s take on the popular fragrance Tobacco Vanille, which is all about reinventing the classic tobacco aroma with a modern twist. Official description: “Sky first opens with a welcoming kiss of juicy pears. Pillows of fluffy white clouds made of lily of the valley float through the middle of the fragrance. A mishmash of things one might like, but don’t necessarily go together. But none of that fae whimsicalness suggested by the campaign. It was never as airy as the name suggested, and rather than the actual ride, Anna Sui’s Sky is the ferris wheel ride at a midsummer carnival with its compartments painted to look like hot air balloons.
NOSTALGIA PERFUME SUNDAY AFTERNOON REVIEW FULL
Though it’s a beautiful bottle that I’m happy to have in my collection, I’d not recommend anyone paying full price for a bottle. I do enjoy the occasional waft of middle school nostalgia of Sky’s opening and heart (especially as Lola has been discontinued), but it’s too watery sweet for everyday wear (I think I’d enjoy this in a bath product more) and the overwhelmingly prominent salty popcorn note that pops out of nowhere doesn’t add to the fragrance in any other way apart from being that ‘interesting note’ either. However, I had sprayed Sky liberally on my wrist on a Friday afternoon, left my coat in the office over the weekend, and upon arriving at work Monday morning – found myself wafting a cloud of powdery vanilla, burnt caramel and salted popcorn from the small amount left on my sleeve. With only the bergamot and musk becoming slightly more pronounced with wear (if you like Marc Jacob’s Lola, or Alkemia’s Les Courtisanes – you’ll probably enjoy this part) I’d initially dismissed Sky developing into anything more as it gained a citrus peel bitterness (which, in my mind – was as ‘rebellious’ as the scent would get), and disappeared within the 4 hour mark (not bad, nor impressive for an EdT). It’s super nostalgic to me for smelling like one of the few ‘clean’ scents that were released into the celeb-frag market in the early 2010s, dominated by fruity-flourmands after the success of Britney Spear’s Fantasy, or even Katy Perry’s Purr. Upon first spritz, I almost thought I was holding the purple thorned rose bottle of Avril Lavigne’s Forbidden Kiss (is it still available nowadays?) all sharp edges in design despite smelling like Japanese shampoo, and anyone looking for a throwback for outrageously clean-bubblegum body spray vibes will find themselves whooshed right back to simpler times by Sky’s opening.Ī combo of pink pepper, lotus, and a crunchy juicy fruit note (pear in this case).
