TBDS order

I had been meaning to order from The Body Dessert Shop for a while so I finally took the plunge on December 1. I got my order within 3 weeks, which is pretty good considering the last few times I ordered it took twice that amount of time. Unfortunately most of the scents really didn't work for me. Plus I'm not sure how crazy I am about the formulas of either the lotion or butter, so this may have been my last order from TBDS.

Caramel Candies - This didn't smell anything like caramel, just kind of a vague bakery scent. On my skin it wasn't bad but not great either, and since it's not the caramel I'm looking for, up for swap it goes.

Caramel Crunch - Not crazy about this. I swear it has some kind of weird perfumey note to it, not caramel to my nose at all. Oh well.

Creed Virgin Island Water dupe - I was so excited to try this as TBDS is the only e-tailer who offers a dupe of this scent, but it was way off. Not even remotely close to the original. Oh well.

Rich Caramel Creme Icing - I didn't even try this on. It smells really weird, just a strange sweet scent without any caramel or icing.

The World's Greatest Marshmallow - I have to say I don't agree with this scent's name. While it's not bad, CH's Who Likes Marshmallow is a tiny bit truer and lasts longer.

Vanilla Nog - This is actually pretty good in the container. It's heavier on the vanilla so the spice in the eggnog is very mild. On my skin it smelled like spicy pumpkin pie. It's not bad but it wasn't the nice creamy eggnog I was hoping for.

IoE holiday order

I couldn't resist IoE's holiday scents. The TAT was cut in half - I got my order within a month! Too bad none of the scents agreed with me.

Roll-ons:
Christmas Java - I'm not quite sure what I was thinking when I ordered this. For some reason a combination of coffee, orange and mint appealed to me, but the blend was horrific to my nose. All the notes clashed and frankly, I found it nauseating.

Eggnog Latte - I had such high hopes for this but it was just a plain coffee scent. I smell no eggnog whatsoever. While it's a decent coffee scent it was absolutely gross on my skin.

Gingerbread Milkshake - Yikes, I didn't even try this on. It wasn't the nice creamy gingerbread I was hoping for, just a weird, sour, weak spicy scent.

Pumpkin Marshmallow Frap - this is okay in the container, a nice blend of pumpkin and coffee, although I don't get any marshmallow. On my skin it was all spice. Sigh.

I also got dream creams in Eggnog Latte and Pumpkin Marshmallow Frap. Sadly on my skin they were no better in that form than they were in the roll-on.

This order was a bust but I'm hoping my next IoE order that I'm currently waiting on (with different holiday scents) will be better!
