First Impressions: Forever Sunshine

Hey guys! Can you tell I'm off work? I hope so by my posting frequency. Lol. 

Today, I'd like to give an initial review of Forever Sunshine. I've used it a few times and I feel like talking about it. 

Upon first sniff of the TMC at the store, I smelled something extremely familiar. Quite good. Almost spicy. It wasn't until I got it home that I placed it. It smelled like gingerbread to me! Weird right? It's probably the "hint of praline". The back says "A fresh blend of golden apricot, pink peonies and a hint of praline that captures the romance of warm days that linger into cool autumn." I'll say. Though I gotta be honest, I don't get a summery feel out of this.  I

To me, I feel like I'm reminded of when the cooler weather comes and there are no more warm days, school starting back up, pumpkins appearing in the supermarkets. It doesn't feel like summer to me at all. However inappropriately named I find this scent, I find that I am amazed by it. I don't really know what apricots smell like but to me, I get this sweet and spicy blast of yummy. I can definitely smell the floral in the FFM but again, I get more of the dessert reminiscent goodness than flowers and fruit out of this scent. I certainly have no complaints. 

I will say this is quite a strong scent. It's very heavy and in your face. It'll certainly go a distance with you too, but it doesn't simply fade, when it's gone, it's GONE! Also, headache/migraine sufferers beware, this one might bring on a headache! 

If you're like me and haven't tried this one because you got into B&BW after it left stores, now's your chance to sniff before you buy! It's available in stores for $5 ea. including the FFM until August 4th! 

I give this a pretty good out of awesome. 
Hm. I ought to come up with a scale...

To do.
