Cookiecrunch

7.8

Coquillete · 2017

Fresh · Citrus · Fruity

Coquillete Cookiecrunch is a gourmand unisex fragrance built on biscuit, dough and vanilla, softened by sugar powder and milk cream and lifted by a bright touch of citrus. The scent stays in one sweet bakery register from start to finish: biscuit and dough come forward, meringue and milk cream turn that into a creamy, powdery surface, and vanilla rounds off the sweetness. Citrus notes lighten the weight and give it a fruity, lively edge. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays noticeable up close without overwhelming. Most voters suggest spring and fall, with winter close behind, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear. About half of voters read it as feminine. Demeter Fragrance Library Lemon Meringue and M. Asam Fresh Orange have a close profile.
