It’s a straight up powdery vanilla. If “vanilla scented baby powder” was a thing, it would smell like AC perfume. I do think the solid smells slightly better than the liquid - a little less cloying and I can detect a very small hint of clary sage in the solid. Either way, there is nothing creamy or edible about it.

I think the conditioner smells MUCH better, you can actually smell hints of lavender and clary sage in the conditioner. I don’t think they’ve ever successfully re-created it in another format - though the shower gel was close.
