Forbidden Fruit

1. Red apple scent all the way. Reminds me a bit of the old B&BW’s apple body spray/lotion/soap that I used back in grade school. I can’t recall the exact name but, it was red apple. Unfortunately, this kicks up my allergies (in the same way that many B&BW”s scents do) and now my nose is stuffy and my eyes are watering. This is not for me but I think it would be great to layer in with a lot of other scents in souls who aren’t as sensitive as myself.

2. On bottle sniff, I’m not thrilled. It’s apple, but it isn’t that realistic. I was hoping for something more delicate, but I’m getting a bit “candy apple”. On my skin, it’s totally different and I would say much improved. There isn’t a candy sweetness at all, so idk what my nose was doing before. It’s got this neat red apple skin aspect that’s almost slightly bitter and waxy in a way, like produce can be. There’s a distinct sense of freshness too, which is super cool. It’s the smell I associate with biting into a Red Delicious apple. Legit. So okay, I rescind my initial reaction! The description is spot-on. I wouldn’t call this a juicy scent exactly. It’s quite demure and reserved for a fruity scent. It never goes sweet either. If anything, it settles into a more and more subtle apple, as if the fruit is literally drying on my skin. Again, super interesting. I’m not sold on it for me personally, but I 100% recommend this for apple scent lovers. It’s impressive.

3. Yep, this is a Red Delicious apple. It’s fresh and crisp, like you’re smelling the skin and the juicy inside at the same time. It leans a little bit floral and soapy, but I think it’s nice. I’m sure it would pair well with a lot of things, or it could be simple and easy to wear alone.

4. This scent smells almost exactly like an apple that has just had a bite taken out of it! It feels bright and not cloying, fresh and easy to layer. A little closer to the skin I get wafts that smell a little bit soapier.
