Sweet-Bittersweet-NotSweet
supersweet(run & buy it) sweet(really good,buy it) bittersweet(ok, issues)not sweet(not good,don't buy this stuff)
Cafe de Bain Cherry & Almond Frangipane - Supersweet
I've never had a frangipane, but if it tastes as delicious as this smells I'm in for a treat! Have you ever had one? This is my favorite scent! It smells like rich, dark cherries (dominant scent) atop a pastry. It's a sweet scent. This one, as well as the others lather beautifully and washes away cleanly (so I won't repeat myself). None of these provide a lot of moisture, but they are pleasing to all of the senses. Pretty to look at! Feels great to the skin! Smells divine!
Cafe de Bain Raspberry & Rose Creme Tarte - Sweet
This one is scented like ripened raspberries with sugar or cream atop.
Cafe de Bain Coconut Macaron - Supersweet
I won't eat coconut, but I adore scented coconut bath products!
This one is scented like toasted coconut. It smells so good! It has more warm tones, than cool tones!
Cafe de Bain Sweet Vanilla Madeleine - Bittersweet
Here's the hiccup! The scent for this one is nearly non-existent. When I read the description they mentioned sponge cake, so I didn't expect a lot of scent but I felt I was using a non-fragrance body wash. The vanilla is very faint.
Cafe de Bain, just came out with a fifth scent! It's called Tarte au Citron! I'll have to try it.
I thought these would fit in perfectly for Girls Just Want To Have Fun Week on AVSB!
Those are my thoughts! What do you think?

Shame the vanilla one didn't smell as great as the others! Vanilla is always my favourite scent :) They do all look very pretty though! :)

How sweet of Kizzy! This product looks so sweet and the packaging is really nice and even though the vanilla was bittersweet, sometimes Vanilla can be too strong for me so I might still give it a try. I adore coconut scents too! Yum :)

How sweet of Kizzy! And Kim, these products are so you lol! All inspired me, less the vanilla madeleine ones. The coconut macaron ones would me my pick as love coconut scent as well. Hugs! xo
ReplyDeleteI am loving the packaging of these products, Kim:) I don't think I've smelled anything with frangipane before, so this one really intrigued me:D I hope it becomes available in Canadian drugstores soon!
ReplyDeleteI am so curious!!! I've never heard of the brand before - I guess mainly because I buy the same things over and over again and get them online. But I'll have a look in Waitrose next time. Thank you for the review, Kim! x
ReplyDeleteI can see why this adorable packaging caught your eye Kim! And the products themselves sound amazing as well. I cant believe this is a drugstore brand!

These sound like they smell delicious! The packaging is gorgeous. The vanilla scent is right up my alley.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of the brand! I hope they sell on Greece!

These products look way too lovely to be sold in a drug store! And I love frangipane, it's a kind of creamy almond meringue, I can't even describe it properly but it's so wonderful, I'd love to use a bath product that smells like it! I'm definitely going on the hunt for these, thanks for the recommendation Kim :)
ReplyDeletexox,
Cee
Sounds wonderful. I've not used their products before, but it sounds lovely. Ooh, that almond frangiopane is good! I don't really think about it but I guess some Euro drugstore brands are amazing! You can take it for granted sometimes. Great find Kim! <3

I agree that their packaging is super adorable and I can't believe they are drugstore! Definitely look like they belong in a boutique store. And Kizzy is so sweet to send you the whole set, she's such great friend, Kim!

This collection is adorable! That's so nice you were able to try out everything, that was sweet of your friend to send you these! They all sound amazing- but too bad about the vanilla not being scented enough!
ReplyDeleteOh yes you are right, the packaging is chic, it reminds me of that macaroon company here in NY. And WOW that is cheap!

They selling those in a drugstore - such a shame! :) They have that certaing vintage vibe like those from Soap & Glory. The packaging of Cafe de Bain is too cute and so frenchy! Wouldn't mind to start a "picnic" with those treasure in my bathroom! LOL Love everything with coconut scent and HELLO Macarons...come to mommy!

Girl, you had me at cafe! Patisserie, yes! This sounds like breakfast to me.
ReplyDeleteI would love to try every single one of them.
Hahaha...just LOL'd loudly at Nerline's comment, so funny!! Love her!! Am happy these were great for you, I wasn't sure on the vanilla one either, but figured it would make for a great review for a contrast. They have the Tarte au Citron that is the other one that's in the set, I will have to pick it up for you if you like!?! Then you'll have tried the set. Frangipane is lovely to eat really :)))) These did strike me as expensive and boutique like as well, was surprised when I found them in the supermarket. But, happy their making them available for people so easily though. Super review doll :) xx
ReplyDeleteWow! I a agree wiht you the package is very nice and the price very cheap, and considering that they are good products, nice review Kim.

too bad vanilla smell was faint, but better that then it being too much. Lovely reviews as always.
ReplyDeleteI agree; the packaging is adorable! Cherry and almond sounds so good!
ReplyDeleteThe packaging is so cute! I'm surprised these products are sold at a drugstore! I don't foods that contain coconut either, but I love coconut scented products! That was so nice of your friend to try all these products!
ReplyDeleteI love all coconuts scent and mmm just imagine coconut macaron!
ReplyDeleteKay Cake Beauty
