by Ganache Parfums
Ice Cream Shoppe by Ganache Parfums is a highly realistic gourmand fragrance that evokes the warm, sweet aroma of a freshly opened ice cream shop—think vanilla ice cream, waffle cones, caramel drizzle, and whipped cream. It opens with a bold burst of sweet vanilla, caramel, and biscuit notes, creating an instant olfactory image of a bakery or a nostalgic Baskin Robbins. The scent is remarkably immersive, with some noting distinct layers of banana, bright syrup, and soft spices that add depth. Longevity is variable—some users report excellent longevity (up to 12 hours), while others describe it as faint and short, especially on lighter skin or with the reformulated version. This perfume has strong presence at night and projects well in cooler seasons, making it ideal for autumn or winter wear. Many users praise its natural, food-inspired realism, though a few find it overly sweet or artificial, particularly in its newer formulation. It performs best on sheer layers or when sprayed on clothing, and is best avoided on hot days due to its dense, candy-like character.
