The final Wylde Ivy reviews

First off, just to let everyone know, Wylde Ivy has some limited edition scents in her shop right now for Halloween and she also has a few of her summer scents on sale for half off, meaning $7.50 for a full size bottle! The scents I saw on sale were Violet Sun, Sun Tea, Iced Mango and Lime Fizz.

Ok now for the reviews. First up is Violet Sun. This is a very happy uplifting scent. I mostly smell violet and lemon. Wylde Ivy describes this as candied violets on a bed of fresh lemon zest and white tea leaves. I don't smell any white tea.

Next is Violet Fluff. This really does smell like violets and marshmallow or what I would call a cooked vanilla smell. Wylde Ivy describes this as candied violets surrounded by a bed of vanilla infused marshmallow fluff.

Next is Marshmallow Gingerbread. If any of you have ever had Cinnamon Teddy Grahams, this smells just like them. It reminds me of warm and spicy cookies. Wylde Ivy says that Marshmallow Gingerbread is the ultimate warm sweet scent! This gooey fragrance is all about melted Marshmallows with hints of warm Gingerbread.

Next is Apple Fest. To me it smells like apples, cinnamon, vanilla and maybe some other sweet fruits peeking through as well. Wylde Ivy describes this as apple pies and apple dumplings, vanilla milkshakes, and the scent of the surrounding trees. There is just a hint of other fruited delicacies like strawberry pie and peach cobbler mixing with the apples and oak leaves.

Last but not least is Amber Chai. This smells like straight up chai to me. I'm definitely picking up on the tea, the vanilla and spices. Wylde Ivy describes this as hints of Amber create a base for rich Chai tea mingled with moist Madagascar vanilla beans. An intriguing blend of black tea, amber and vanilla with a hint of spice.

Well that's all for this post. I might have a post of some Etsy favorites later. I'm not sure, I might want to keep them all to myself haha!

I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend! It's supposed to be clear skies and cool temps all weekend here so I'm so excited about that!

  2. I'm not generally the biggest of fruit perfume fans, but something about that apple mixture appeals to me deeply. Perhaps it's all the apples in the air (and my table), so to speak, this season :)

    Wishing you a deeply wonderful weekend, my friend!

  3. The Amber Chai sounds tantalizing! I'm leaning towards that one. It doesn't sound too sweet.
