Reddit: "Initial Sniff: Creamy, fresh off the stove, warm and comforting oatmeal porridge. The cognac is not boozy at all and dances around the strawberries creating interest and additional warmth. It's incorporated very well so that it complements the scent instead of taking it into an entirely different direction. The strawberries aren't juicy or fresh, they're freeze dried instant oats strawberries but they're soaked in that cognac and maple syrup note which adds a depth and hydration back into them. The oatmeal has a spoonful or two of maple syrup but it's not drenched or overly sweet in any way at all. I smell a creamy non-dairy milk note like an oat milk. Drying down: he scent of instant oats strawberries becomes more apparent and the oatmeal becomes less creamy and more mapley sweet without ever tiptoeing too close to the "too sweet" realm. I think this is a really nice addition not having a juice strawberry because that would've clashed with the maple syrup and cognac in my opinion. Rather, these freeze dried strawberries let the focus stay on the warm oatmeal note whilst the maple syrup and cognac offer the juicy brightness. A Few Hours Later: Literally almost the same as the dry down for me! The notes are a bit more blended together like someone has been stirring the oatmeal but besides that, nothing different to report. I'd like to add that I have full sized this and ordered the refresher spray as well."
Reddit: "I’m not familiar with cognac, but I catch a note of hot milk underlying the pretty authentic strawberry porridge with a dash of maple. It’s a little sharp to my nose, but if you really like the smell of strawberry porridge then you’d probably like this."
Reddit: "Exactly the Quaker Oats instant strawberries and cream oatmeal- heat water for a minute and add to get this perfume. I love it."
Reddit: "Cognac doesn’t really come through for me, nor do I get much syrup. It’s mostly a strawberry oatmeal scent, kinda sweet and very foody. It has a little bit of maple, but the sweetness is not over-the-top. It wears pretty close to the skin and doesn’t morph much, but it’s nice and lasts for 5+ hours before I washed it off."
Reddit: "I don’t smell any cognac in this. Instead, it’s an uncannily accurate recreation of Strawberries & Cream-flavored Quaker Instant Oatmeal, with some maple syrup thrown in. Like, I cannot stress enough how much this smells like strawberry-flavored instant oatmeal. My childhood breakfasts in a 5ml bottle."
