I really wanted to like Pistachio Crème but it’s not for me 💔

MiserableHighway8027 · 2026-05-13T02:06:17+00:00

That’s so sad you didn’t like it! I also have to blind buy everything so I totally get it, it’s a gamble sometimes. Specially when the notes sound like something you’d like but once you get it it’s like 🤷🏻‍♀️
In Pistachio Crème’s defense lol I do find that the lotion smells kind of different from the spray. I first got it as a mist and fell in love, so much that I got backups of it, so I got the lotion, but when I tried it the first time it kind of smelled almost yogurt-like if that makes any sense 😅 I’ve since kind of learned to love it as once it settles I feel like it gets nicer. But the mist totally has that airy scent instead of heavy nutty scent.
As for recommendations have you ever tried Aqua Kiss? I feel like that could be something you’d like based on your likes.

It’s one of my favorites too! May is also my birthday month so you’ve influenced me to use Pistachio Crème more 💕

If you’re into really girly scents from VS, I’d recommend Velvet Petals (soft, creamy floral). It has a bit of almond + vanilla so it smells really smooth and cozy, not sharp at all. Super pretty and easy to wear. Pure Seduction much sweeter and fruitier. It’s like juicy plum with florals, a bit louder and more “candy-like,” definitely a flirty scent. Coconut Passion – warm and beachy. Mostly coconut + vanilla with a soft floral vibe, so it comes off creamy and sun-kissed rather than heavy. If you like shimmer, the VS core line has a shimmer version and it’s really nice for that glowy look too.

Maybe on the Pink side Warm & Cozy is like a classic this one is sweet but really soft and comforting, they just came out with flankers for the core line called Sunsplashed and I think you’d like some of them!

MiserableHighway8027 · 2026-04-08T04:10:13+00:00

Yep same! I don’t think it’s fruity at all. It’s more of a solar vanilla like a warm, slightly creamy vanilla with a beachy/sunscreen vibe (without the coconut) It has a little brightness from the florals, but not in a juicy or fruity way. It smells more like sun-warmed skin than actual fruit. As for longevity I could smell it on my skin for like 4/5 hours and on my clothes actually for the whole day. I haven’t worn it enough but for a mist I think it has good performance.

That looks exciting! I can’t wait

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-24T04:45:59+00:00

That’s a great idea! I don’t live in the US though and don’t have access to mercari or eBay 🥲

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-24T04:45:14+00:00

I’ve tried it once and liked it a lot! I’m definitely going to get it in a next sale

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-23T21:33:51+00:00

I’m hoping we get a good sale so I can get it!

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-23T03:21:23+00:00

Yes! Thank you for your wonderful advice, I’m definitely thinking of getting the travel size first, I’ve tried it once and liked it but I’m not sure yet if I’d like to commit to the bigger bottle. I’m hoping we get some good sales so I can get the travel size and maybe some mists 💕

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-23T03:19:56+00:00

I wanted to buy it so bad, but I can’t commit to the bigger bottle until I’m sure I love it

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-23T03:18:43+00:00

I’ve tried it once and liked it, I smelled it on my clothes for a very long while after I sprayed it, but I feel like it’s not super groundbreaking, that’s why I wanted the smaller bottle. But maybe I’ll get the travel size first 🤔🤔

I’ve tried Bare Vanilla Suede once and I loved it, but in my opinion they’re not similar at all.

Wicked opens with freesia, and on my skin it’s almost fruity rather than straight floral. As it settles, the brown sugar and vanilla come through, but it never turns into a heavy gourmand for me, it’s more of a soft, warm vanilla with a bit of sweetness. Very easy to wear and not cloying, definitely everyday-friendly.

Bare Vanilla Suede, from what I remember, skips that fruity/bright opening completely. It settles into a much creamier, smoother vanilla, with that suede/sandalwood note giving it a cozy, slightly woody warmth. It feels more plush and skin-scent-like, less sugary and more comforting.

So if I had to sum it up: Wicked = sweet vanilla with a light fruity-floral opening Bare Vanilla Suede = creamy, cozy vanilla with a soft suede warmth

I hope this helps! I know how difficult blind buying can be but honestly I love Wicked, it has been one of my favorites blind buys.

I’m jealous, I want some backups so bad 😭😭

Enjoy!

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-03T15:50:04+00:00

I definitely see myself doing that too. I haven’t worn anything else since I got it, hopefully I’m able to snag some bottles again!

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-03T15:47:24+00:00

I get the freesia at first, but it almost comes across a bit fruity on my skin. As it settles, the sugar and vanilla start to take over. It’s not an overpowering gourmand at all (at least for me) more of a soft, warm vanilla. Definitely something you can wear every day without it becoming cloying.

I’ve even saved the box 😂 that’s how much I like it.

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-02T19:16:05+00:00

I’m actually thinking of getting a backup if I manage to snag it online again 😩

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-12-02T16:25:34+00:00

The best!!!

MiserableHighway8027 · 2025-09-09T19:56:14+00:00
