After buying afternoon delight and it literally making me gag, it’s refreshing to see a review that doesn’t claim it smells like “a cozy French bakery” with an affiliate link. I know fragrance is personal but this one gave me trust issues 😅
I loved afternoon delight! It has a very soft, mild scent and my husband (who is verrrry picky about fragrances) even said he loved it. Just goes to show how subjective fragrances are to each individual. 😊
I like it a lot, but don't love it. I get virtually no sweetness or vanilla. I get a warm, bready, unsweetened milk scent. I think it will be good to layer with sweet vanilla scents like Vanilla Skin, Vanilla 28, or Heavy Cream. I don't think I will get much out of it alone.
Whaaaaat?! I love Afternoon delight. To me it is the best fragrance of the year. I literally cannot get enough of it. Fragrances are definitely very individual things obviously.
It’s such a strange scent to me and I can’t stop sniffing it. I won’t be buying another bottle when it runs out, but I can see myself using the whole thing and layering it with other, sweeter fragrances
Y’all are giving me hope. I ordered it from the actual site not Sephora cause they gave me a 20% off coupon 😂 I was very scared, but ya girls are giving me hope 🤞🏻😂♥️
I completely agree about Afternoon Delight… going to keep it and set it aside for a few weeks to see if that cookie note becomes more forthcoming. I’m hoping that’s the case here like other fragrances I’ve sprayed out and let it sit. Moving forward I won’t be blind buying tho 😂 these marketing schemes won’t be catching me again 🙄 I will say I layered it with Dulce by Rosie Jane and it balanced that milky note from Afternoon Delight
After letting mine sit for a few months I’ve noticed mine now smells like a spicy sugar cookie? Way less milky. I’m really liking it! Has the same happened for you?
I'm so with you on getting caught up in the marketing!! 😅 I wish I lived in an area with more variety to shop for fragrances because if I want to try anything that isn't mainstream fragrance, I basically have to do a blind buy or hope there's a sample option. Now the wind howls in my empty wallet...
Afternoon Delight is incredible. I’m very happy with it and glad I got the big bottle. Carousel was ok and I’m happy with the travel size. Heavy cream smelled like spoiled milk and I returned it. And Cherry baby is foul, and somehow it smelled worse when I tried to scrub it off. 🤮
I was absolutely going to blind buy afternoon delight, so THANK YOU for saving me the money 😭❤ I strongly prefer lactonic literal gourmands so while afternoon delight sounds like a hard no, I will definitely be picking up phlur heavy cream. thanks for sharing your thoughts 🫶
@@greenlean8890 a few of my favourites are: xerjoff italica and cruz del sur II, chabaud lait de biscuit, carner barcelona palo santo, liquides imaginaires blanche bête, zadig & voltaire this is her. serge lutens jeux de peau comes up a lot when people talk about lactonic frags but to my nose, the wheat and immortelle overpower the milk note - still love it, but it’s definitely more bready than milky to me. I also quite like ellis brooklyn vanilla milk but I know that’s a divisive one! hope this helps ❤️
I get so excited when I see Lauren posts !! you are so in depth I love your approach - it’s super fun yet almost systematic lol. you have a spin that no one else has!!
Lauren if you haven’t, get your nose on the new milk body spray for B&BW!! I got in on a whim cuz I had a free product- it’s HEAVENLY!!! I hear you saying it’s lactonic when I use it. It’s like sweetened milk & oat something it’s so good especially to wear around the house or layer.
I still have to use Afternoon Delight a bit more but my initial impression was positive ❤, but I’m a girl who also loves Ellis Brooklyn Vanilla Milk. Neither smells stinky to me. 😊
Afternoon Delight...OMG YESSSSS!! I thought it was a weird chemical smell to this. Trying to like it, but not really feeling it. I have the one oz thank goodness.
I work in the fragrance industry so I'm surrounded by all the brands, so I'm patient when it comes to new launches. I refuse to blind-buy online; I wait till I can try it in store.(exception is if it's not available in stores/ never ever) but that really hasn't happened. 😂 I'll check out the Phlur in store. So far, I like the Mango Mood and the Coconut skin. ❤
Afternoon delight is less cozy than I wanted, but I still like it! I like a powdery scent occasionally. Heavy cream is DELICIOUS. Wow. It’s amazing bc Phlur has mostly disappointed me 😂😂😂 I like heavy cream and vanilla skin even though vanilla skin is SMOKE CITY on me sometimes.
Hi Lauren, unrelated to the video, but I think a fun video idea you could do is testing out subscribers’ fragrance combinations or layering suggestions!
I almost pulled the trigger for afternoon delight and so dang glad I didnt! I have to be in the right head space to wear vanilla milk by ellis Brooklyn and i have to layer it with certain scents like bbw whipped coconut milkshake. And even then if it's one of those days, it can kinda smell like spit up and turn my stomach lol So glad i saw ur review before blind buying it! 😂
Came back to this video because I finally got to smell afternoon delight and you were so right about the vanilla sex comparison!!!! As soon as I smelled it I thought of vanilla sex
I blind bought Afternoon Delight and was severely disappointed. I love the Replica line and it smelled like a mix of play doh, pencil shavings, and vanilla to me. 😂 Edit: heavy cream was also disappointing to me, it 100% dried down to swiffer for me lol
I got a travel spray of Carousel and I was immediately obsessed with it and bought the full size. It lasted through a workout and I could still smell it faintly after my shower. Lasts sooo long on me !
I had the same reaction to afternoon delight and I also bought a full bottle! I played around with it and layered it with sucre de coton, and that pushed it in the direction I wanted.
Thank you for your afternoon delight review! You are spot on! I’m so confused as to why no one else has mentioned this in any of the Sephora reviews! I’m returning!
Thanks for the reviews! I’m so excited for my Sephora order to come in. Heavy Cream sounded so amazing and smelling it in person was different. Not as fluffy, creamy sweet as I thought.
I had to choose between replica and brown girl Jane carousel travels and I chose carousel and I’m soooooo glad I did especially after hearing these reviews about the replica lol I got the Phlur heavy cream and was thinking it would layer great with kayali vanilla oud in the cooler months omg
Me too but I chose the opposite 🥴🥴🥴 I’m glad I got the travel size but even that was $40 after tax. I’m thinking of returning it because I will never wear it
Omg I was so close to blind buying afternoon delight. Literally look at it everyday and not even the travel size the big one! Saved me!! Definitely gonna try it in stores first
I am SO glad you did this video! You were spot on with Vanilla Milk from Ellis Brooklyn and I hated that fragrance as well so I will not be blind buying Afternoon Delight! I definitely plan to pick up Carousel, but I will start with the travel size. Heavy Cream is okay. I have it and I don’t hate it, but I prefer Coconut Skin! I have gravitated back to 22 Orris by Ledda and can’t stop wearing it! I had given it a break the last couple of months, but I wore it the other day to a job interview and now I can’t leave it alone! LOL
Lauren, I love your channel, only discovered it recently. I’m worst at describing fragrance notes so appreciate how you describe your favourite scents. I’ve recently discovered Vanilla Nue from Beauty Pie. It’s so good, I’ve had 2 shop assistants recently complement me on it and ask what it is.
Hands down the best dessert scent I've ever tried is Eat Me from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab. It smells like the most delicious toasty vanilla cake with currant jam. I'd love to see you try some gourmands from indie perfume oil brands like BPAL.
I've been buying samples, and 5-10 ml decants. I'll buy a full bottle if I love or still love it after the decant is gone. My last blind buy was Zenobia, which I absolutely hate. I also ordered Blond Redhead, and I hope I love it, because there weren't any samples or decants available. Thanks for the video! :-)
I was honestly a little surprised how many people were getting sucked in by the Afternoon Delight marketing. Replica has some great scents, but even with the marketing I would have been pretty surprised if it had been a super sweet, bakery gourmand. Aren't most of their scents pretty unisex? (Not that guys can't wear sweet scents, but those aren't typically called unisex.) I'm glad I trusted my gut on Afternoon Delight and passed on it. I'm sorry for the people who felt kind of swindled by the marketing. 😢
I got both travel sizes for Carousel and Afternoon Delight! Carousel was a love for me, the leather note is super light imo and it adds the perfect balance to the sweetness from the spun sugar and the fruitiness from the apple, I already ordered a full size bottle lol Afternoon Delight was a complete disappointment i’m glad i’m not the only one that thinks so
I also bought Afternoon Delight & Carousel. Afternoon Delight was not at all what I expected and I do see what everyone is saying, but for some reason I’m drawn to it and it takes on an almost custard scent on my skin. I’m curious to see how it would pair with By the Fireplace. I’m not sure about Carasoul yet. I think my expectations were too high.
Kinda glad they aren't amazing. I'm kinda broke at the moment so I don't feel like I'm missing out after hearing this. When I'm caught up I might go try to smell at the local Sephora before their semi annual sale.
Kinda glad I missed out on Afternoon Delight… I’ll wait to try it in store now. I am really glad, however, that I got Heavy Cream from Phlur. I get whipped cream, not swifter pad! Lol!
I returned my travel of Afternoon Delight (gross) but I’m liking Carousel. It’s sexier than I expected and I think it’ll be a great fall scent. I hated Heavy Cream too! It absolutely smells like Swiffer wet mop pads. It’s way too fresh and clean. Marketing strikes again 😭
I’m absolutely loving phlur heavy cream. I don’t think the lemon is prominent either. Maybe a slight touch in the beginning and then it’s gone. A VERY slight touch. Then musky coconut cake is all I get.
I just got the Gleam Gritti “Vanilla crush” brand new on Mercari yesterday for a great price! I can’t wait to get my hands on it! It’s apparently a beautiful powdery vanilla with iris and spun sugar and musk! Someone said it reminded them of vanilla pudding! Boy I can’t wait to receive her in the mail! I’m headed to gulf shores for the second time this summer at the end of the month, so I’ll probably be taking vanilla crush with me! It’s originally 185$ and I got it for 121$! ❤ It’s apparently a beautiful vanilla and a pink bottle too! It’s gonna be my first one from the house! I’m not a fan of replica fragrances at ALL! Not interested in their new one either. Never been a fan.
I thought Afternoon Delight was very sweet--too sweet, in my opinion. Almost cloying. I'm glad i only bought the travel size. I did buy the Anna Sui Cosmic Sky on your recommendation and love it!
I was most excited about Afternoon Delight and Heavy cream. Heavy Cream I got a sample in the mail. On me it kinda just smells like powdered milk or something. I think lactonic scents don’t mix with me @ this point. I’m really glad I didn’t blind buy afternoon delight because the marketing on that one is wild. Also the notes on the Maison M. Site and also Parfumo are different than the ones on Fragrantica. Based on what your saying I think Fragrantica is not fully correct on the notes. Anyways thanks for your reviews. I can’t afford to blind buy but they almost got me 😅. I’m gonna stick with In Too Deep by 5 Sens for my cozy vanilla.
i actively have afternoon delight in my sephora cart rn so thanks so much for this. also maybe it’s just my bottle cause the box baked in the florida ups trucks, but i don’t get really get the lemon from heavy cream, let alone SWIFFER PAD?!? maybe a LITTLE citrus sweetness, but i asked my husband to check and he couldn’t smell lemon at all. now im so concerned because i LOVE heavy cream and im worried if i got another bottle it wouldn’t be the same 😂😂😂 to me its giving like… bianco latte had a shower, so i adore it. i’m so worried lmao
I had such high hopes for Heavy Cream, but the coconut overtakes everything else, then it dries down with a faint whif of vomit on me. WHY. So naturally I had gotten the big one... Caramel Skin is absolutely delicious though.
Listen, I was SO underwhelmed by Afternoon Delight. It’s ok but it smells nothing like I was hoping. I just get a lot of the sandalwood and and an alcoholic extract type of scent from it. Heavy Cream on the other hand I was very pleased with and the combo of the two was pretty nice. Heavy Crean puts me in mind of Whipped Coconut Milkshake from B&BW, so sweet and creamy. I only purchased a travel size of AD and I probably won’t be blind buying again, at least not until I see some reviews from people I can trust cuz the hype and the marketing got me out here looking like 😵💫😵💫
afternoon delight seems like a rare miss from margiela! NO ONE seems to be happy with it! not necessarily dislike, just seeing a lot of "not what i expected..." i won't be surprised if it's discontinued by this time next year.
After buying afternoon delight and it literally making me gag, it’s refreshing to see a review that doesn’t claim it smells like “a cozy French bakery” with an affiliate link. I know fragrance is personal but this one gave me trust issues 😅
It made me gag too. 😐 I returned my travel size SO fast.
I’m glad you reviewed this. Not going to blind buy Afternoon Delight
I did and I LOVE it!!! It’s sweet to me and milky
Same! I’m so glad I watched the review before purchasing!
The marketing gets me too, girl. Put any dessert in the promotional material and I will want to buy a bottle 🥲
They are well aware of this, cough Kayali
I loved afternoon delight! It has a very soft, mild scent and my husband (who is verrrry picky about fragrances) even said he loved it. Just goes to show how subjective fragrances are to each individual. 😊
I like it a lot, but don't love it. I get virtually no sweetness or vanilla. I get a warm, bready, unsweetened milk scent. I think it will be good to layer with sweet vanilla scents like Vanilla Skin, Vanilla 28, or Heavy Cream. I don't think I will get much out of it alone.
Same I like the light lactonic note!
Afternoon Delight is going back and I *never* return anything. Totally agree about Vanilla Milk.
Whaaaaat?! I love Afternoon delight. To me it is the best fragrance of the year. I literally cannot get enough of it. Fragrances are definitely very individual things obviously.
I love it to. Maybe not enough for a full bottle but it’s amazing paired with vanilla 28 from Kayali
It’s such a strange scent to me and I can’t stop sniffing it. I won’t be buying another bottle when it runs out, but I can see myself using the whole thing and layering it with other, sweeter fragrances
I love Afternoon Delight! The dry down is even better.
I’m obsessed with this fragrance. From the initial notes to the dry down - delicious all throughput.
I really loved it too, it reminds of an open oven with cookies inside 🤤
I love it too! Definitely more of a fall scent for me, but I’m pretty sure I’m going to get a bottle after my travel size runs out.
Same here. Fresh baked vanilla cookies! @@Champagnemami27
Y’all are giving me hope. I ordered it from the actual site not Sephora cause they gave me a 20% off coupon 😂 I was very scared, but ya girls are giving me hope 🤞🏻😂♥️

Same!

I just love how real you are and don’t just hype up every single new product. Thank you for your honest thoughts
I had Afternoon Delight in my cart about to blind buy, and this just saved my life. Thank you, I ain't tryna smell like baby regurgitation.
Wow it's almost like you can't make your own opinions.....
I was absolutely going to blind buy afternoon delight, so THANK YOU for saving me the money 😭❤ I strongly prefer lactonic literal gourmands so while afternoon delight sounds like a hard no, I will definitely be picking up phlur heavy cream. thanks for sharing your thoughts 🫶
I also love lactonic literal gourmands, so I’d love to know what perfumes you like, as I’m currently searching for good lactonic gourmands.

Thank you for your honesty and giving us a real review!!!!
Thank you for doing the Lord’s work, Lauren!! ❤
I really want to smell some of the brown girl Jane scents. They SOUND so good.
Carnivale is beautiful. It has a yummy mango note in it that I love. I haven’t smelled any others tho. I wanna try a sampler set.
You always give fragrances a fair shot, multiple shots, actually. Which I love because several of my faves were NOT even likes at first!
Lauren if you haven’t, get your nose on the new milk body spray for B&BW!! I got in on a whim cuz I had a free product- it’s HEAVENLY!!! I hear you saying it’s lactonic when I use it. It’s like sweetened milk & oat something it’s so good especially to wear around the house or layer.

Not the swiffer pad I’m hollering 😭😭😭
Not that silly saying again
Whaaaaaa afternoon delight was a blind buy for me and damn, I love. I’m a perfume before bed gal and this is *pastry chefs kiss
I love how it’s sweet without being cloying. It has base notes that keep it from going too juvenile and sickly.
@@demeraa yeah it kinda sounds like something i would go for. very sweet scents make me sick

I appreciate you doing a follow up about the new vanilla drops, thank you sweet heart.

you have no idea how much i appreciate this honest review, its so hard finding honest opinions on the replica and phlur ones!! THANK YOU

I need to hear a review from you of the miragr gourmand perfume !! Love that you are honest and teally tell when something is not good
I am liking bgj carousel and for once it lasted!!! Now replica i am just gonna exchange for born in roma gold edp when it is in stores!
One perfume I never see reviews on is kayali Maui in a bottle. If you love the smell of bananas you will love this!!!!❤👍🏻
She has a video on this fragrance from earlier this springtime.
I got a travel spray of Carousel and I was immediately obsessed with it and bought the full size. It lasted through a workout and I could still smell it faintly after my shower. Lasts sooo long on me !
I had the same reaction to afternoon delight and I also bought a full bottle! I played around with it and layered it with sucre de coton, and that pushed it in the direction I wanted.
MM REPLICA LET US DOWNNNN FAM 😭
Speak for yourself.
Thank you for your afternoon delight review! You are spot on! I’m so confused as to why no one else has mentioned this in any of the Sephora reviews! I’m returning!
Because it was sent to those people for FREE!
Thanks for the the honest reviews and saving me some coin!
Were you planning on picking up Nest Vanilla Bourbon? I’d be very curious to hear your thoughts on that one.
You’ve got to get the new Devotion Intense it’s sooooo beautiful ❤❤❤ love both of these too
Where can I find the devotion intense please?
I love love love Afternoon Delight, i just wish projection was better.
Thanks for the reviews! I’m so excited for my Sephora order to come in. Heavy Cream sounded so amazing and smelling it in person was different. Not as fluffy, creamy sweet as I thought.
Thank you for your thoughts and reviews ! Appreciate the perspective especially on the ones I also set high expectations for.
Maybe I should just become obsessed with eating pastry and dessert than hoping to smell like it 😆
I had to choose between replica and brown girl Jane carousel travels and I chose carousel and I’m soooooo glad I did especially after hearing these reviews about the replica lol

i actually hate cherry fragrances but for some reason i really liked cherry baby!
I like Carousel..I'm still testing it out before I get a full bottle but it's really nice.
The new D&G "Devotion" Intense just came out.. it should be interesting. 🤠
Oh really where can I find it please*

Omg I was so close to blind buying afternoon delight. Literally look at it everyday and not even the travel size the big one! Saved me!! Definitely gonna try it in stores first
I was curious about vanilla cloud, thanks for reviewing!

Thank you so much for your truthfulness.
Interesting.. I love afternoon delight 🤎🤎

Loving Heavy Cream. I do get the lemon. Yummy release.
So goooooooood ✨
I appreciate the reviews. Happy Friday ❌️ ⭕️
Unfortunately Phlur’s Heavy Cream is only available in the states. I’m in Canada and I want it so bad!
Unrelated but I got Love & Crime and I'm obsessed thank u
11:58 fresh cream warm cashmere and sweet tooth are in my top 5 so I’m really hoping I like heavy cream!
Girl you NEED Dua fluffy marshmallows if you love both of those! Smells like sweet tooth but much stronger ❤
I got both travel sizes for Carousel and Afternoon Delight!

Love your honest review 😊
Ok why did I read brown girl casserole 🥘 on that pink bottle 😂
Kinda glad I missed out on Afternoon Delight… I’ll wait to try it in store now. I am really glad, however, that I got Heavy Cream from Phlur. I get whipped cream, not swifter pad! Lol!
Heavy Cream has become my bedtime scent.
I returned my travel of Afternoon Delight (gross) but I’m liking Carousel. It’s sexier than I expected and I think it’ll be a great fall scent. I hated Heavy Cream too! It absolutely smells like Swiffer wet mop pads. It’s way too fresh and clean. Marketing strikes again 😭
Cherry Baby sounds like a scent I’d like
Some reviewer said Afternoon Delight said it reminder her of baby spit-up and now that’s all I can smell when I spray it🫠
I’m absolutely loving phlur heavy cream. I don’t think the lemon is prominent either. Maybe a slight touch in the beginning and then it’s gone. A VERY slight touch. Then musky coconut cake is all I get.
I jumped and bought it too. Wouldn't have bought it if I tried it first! 😢

I’m loving replica afternoon delight! I get a cookie 🎵
Ugh same girl. I blind bought afternoon delight and it’s not the vibe 😢
I thought Afternoon Delight was very sweet--too sweet, in my opinion. Almost cloying. I'm glad i only bought the travel size. I did buy the Anna Sui Cosmic Sky on your recommendation and love it!
Oh well, I have too many on my wish list anyway! 💵😊 these flops are saving my wallet. Hope Creed Centaurus and Delphinus releases will be good.

I’m returning afternoon delight to Sephora tomorrow.
What's on your eyes, girl? It's stunning on your beautiful eyes.
i actively have afternoon delight in my sephora cart rn so thanks so much for this.
also maybe it’s just my bottle cause the box baked in the florida ups trucks, but i don’t get really get the lemon from heavy cream, let alone SWIFFER PAD?!?
maybe a LITTLE citrus sweetness, but i asked my husband to check and he couldn’t smell lemon at all.
now im so concerned because i LOVE heavy cream and im worried if i got another bottle it wouldn’t be the same 😂😂😂
to me its giving like… bianco latte had a shower, so i adore it. i’m so worried lmao
I had such high hopes for Heavy Cream, but the coconut overtakes everything else, then it dries down with a faint whif of vomit on me. WHY. So naturally I had gotten the big one...
Caramel Skin is absolutely delicious though.
Girrlll saaame. I ordered Afternoon Delight and nottt in love 😢 I also didn't like the Vanilla Milk one. I'm returning it.
I got afternoon delight and I'm probably gonna return it. I'm not a huge fan of powdery scents. Too bad I was so excited for it
Listen, I was SO underwhelmed by Afternoon Delight. It’s ok but it smells nothing like I was hoping. I just get a lot of the sandalwood and and an alcoholic extract type of scent from it. Heavy Cream on the other hand I was very pleased with and the combo of the two was pretty nice. Heavy Crean puts me in mind of Whipped Coconut Milkshake from B&BW, so sweet and creamy. I only purchased a travel size of AD and I probably won’t be blind buying again, at least not until I see some reviews from people I can trust cuz the hype and the marketing got me out here looking like 😵💫😵💫
Yes. The replica one tricked me 😢
afternoon delight seems like a rare miss from margiela! NO ONE seems to be happy with it! not necessarily dislike, just seeing a lot of "not what i expected..." i won't be surprised if it's discontinued by this time next year.
Did you see the new Angels Share flanker coming out?? ❤
I also didn't like afternoon delight. Not at all would I thought it would be and yes powder.
