Le Monde Gourmand Fraise Fouettée Spray Eau de Parfum - Vanilla, Strawberry, Sugar Perfume Notes -1 fl oz (30 ml)

I was absolutely blown away by how spot on this fragrance was, usually with scents when they say something like "smells like strawberry milk" they're not actually talking about a 1:1 portrayal of that scent, there's always additional notes or things added in that I understand always serve a purpose but usually also have the effect of changing the scent profile from what was originally promised. That is definitely not the case with Fraise Fouette, it only smells like strawberry, sugar, and whipped cream. I was a bit leery of it and afraid that a fragrance with such a brief profile would have to be absolutely perfectly executed in order to be worthwhile, but my anxiety was unfounded because it is perfectly executed simplicity. Le Mond Gourmand proves you don't need ten billion notes jammed in a bottle to create a wonderful perfume. It is also exactly what I anticipated size wise for the money, I wasn't under the impression that $25 USD would be getting me a humongous bottle and I was right: it's an average 30ml bottle but it is still a good price for the amount of perfume. I also loved that the bottle is truly filled all the way to the very top where the metal is clamped around the opening to secure the atomizer. Some brands only fill it to about the top edge and the entire top is technically only filled with excess air, which feels like stinginess whenever brands do that so I appreciate a truly full bottle of fragrance. The projection of Fraise Fouette is also extremely good, I sprayed it roughly an hour ago now and I can still catch whiffs of it around myself just as I'm going about my day and others have commented on the sweet smell I have lingering around me. It has better projection than some of the more expensive perfumes in my collection, which is also a huge plus and proves brands can do well performing fragrances without charging ridiculous prices for it. I've also noticed the scent hasn't broken down with time either, with many perfumes as time goes on their notes will wear down to reveal additional layers like a similar strawberry perfume for example may open with a bright strawberry then after about a half hour you may only actually smell vanilla or sugar on yourself but none of the initial strawberry note. This perfume doesn't seem to do that, the simple formula retains all it's notes from the very first spray which I quite like and think is very unique given the current trend of having more complex fragrance profiles. It's also very wearable for every day, and today it's 86 degrees fahrenheit outside so I was able to test how the profile wears in high heat. I was nervous it would take on a more rancid quality, given how milk usually smells in heat, but I'm surprised that the outside temperatures don't seem to have any effect on the overall scent integrity. I am curious about how it performs in colder weather, but I'll have to wait several months to find out. Overall, this is an incredibly worthwhile purchase if you're searching for that perfectly sweet milky strawberry scent!

I really love this fragrance. From the first spray, it smells so good sweet but still clean and soft, not overpowering at all. It has that fresh strawberry vibe that feels playful but still wearable for everyday use. What surprised me the most is that the perfume actually lasts. I can still notice it hours later without needing to reapply, which is not always common with lighter, sweet scents like this. It feels light, feminine, and very easy to wear whether I’m going out during the day or just want to smell good at home. Pros: * Sweet but clean strawberry scent * Long-lasting for a light fragrance * Not overpowering, very wearable * Feels fresh and feminine Cons: * If you prefer strong luxury-style perfumes, this is more soft and playful Final thought: This is definitely a scent I would keep in my rotation. Simple, pretty, and makes you smell really good without trying too hard.

I was soooo so SOOO disappointed in this 😭😭 I’ve been loving this brand a lot and when I saw this scent I knew I had to have it. I am a fragrance girlie 100% I love all the smell good things! And I especially am obsessed with all things strawberry!! I was so sure this would be a daily perfume for me… until it arrived and I smelled it and it doesn’t smell like strawberry to me at all.. and worst of all it doesn’t last like literally at ALL. The smell is completely gone within like 20 minutes!!! Which is insane. I expect that from a body mist sure. But a perfume???? No. I don’t think that’s even acceptable. A perfume should last at minimum 2 hours. And it should really be renamed fart milk because that’s what it smells like 🤢

Smells great. Exactly like strawberry milk. The scent is very sweet but faint. Though it doesn't last all too long. 15-20 minutes give or take. And that's on skin and clothing. I did notice that the number one ingredient for this one was water, so that probably plays a part in the strength and duration of the scent. It sprays a decent amount for application, but I've only sprayed it a couple times and it's already a 1/5 way down the bottle. Personally, I wouldn't buy it for the price again. I thought it'd be worth it since, the reviews seemed great, but can't trust all of them until you give it a shot yourself. Overall, the only thing I'm disappointed about is the longevity of the scent.

It smells like candy, not really what I was expecting. It’s smells decent though, I’m not obsessed with it. And the longevity doesn’t really last.

LOVE the smell of this one! Very fruity & feminine. Will be great for summer.

I wanted to love it, but the smell is not long lasting AT ALL! The scent is definitely strawberry with sweetness but it only lasted for 30 mins max if that. I was deeply disappointed because I had read the reviews and it said otherwise. I wish I could get my money back …. I am going to try to pair it with a strawberry lotion scent to try to keep the scent to last longer for what its worth….

Smells great
