I sniffed all of the LM Gourmande scents at Nordstrom last week and they were yummy. I've read a few complaints that some were “plasticky”, but I didn't get that. I especially liked Marrons Galce and Vanille Gourmande.
I tried LM's gourmande scents also. They smell delicious! As a matter of fact they didn't smell cheap, “plasticky” or too juvenile to me.. If someone is looking for a nice caramel-toffee-almond type fragrance, then they should go for this.
Thanks for commenting…as I said below, haven't put these on skin yet. On cards, I have to admit they didn't exactly slay me, but that isn't a fair test
Actually, I haven't tried any of these on my skin either.. I sniffed the body products like the bath foam and body cream which is de-lish! Angel by Thierry Mugler and Acqa di Palma Sicilian almond is as gourmand as I get these days, but if someone is into these kind of scents they may like LM.
The body creams are very nice — and would bet you're right, a real gourmand freak would like the new scents.
I also sniffed the Mercier scents and thought they were a pretty good take on something that could turn cheap-smelling quick! I especially like the Marrons Glaces.
Absolutely love almond and coconut milk body souffle. it is sooo long lasting, if i apply it in the morning, I still get sniffs of it in the evening. So many people commented me on this smell, and 4 of my friends bought the same products. It is Delicious and perfect if you like vanilla based fragrances. Yummy….
