Papaya Paradise body mist is a real affordable fragrance where you get what you pay for. It might be real clean but it feels like such a wasted opportunity to create something truly remarkable.
When the market is oversaturated with forgettable garbage and keeps on churning out more and more, I get sad at the lost art of unique scent composition and storytelling.
This mist smell childish and lacks tastefully done nuances. Please do not blind buy.

A sweet, indulgent treat with Clean Reserve's signature DNA. Caramel Swirl is a true gourmand fragrance: warm, inviting, fruity and delectable. I appreciate the clean ingredients used and sustainable practices. It's a very pretty scent lacking imagination, however at this price point it's expected.

L'Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil
Ultra-rich, heavenly gourmand almond-scented body oil to nourish and beautify. Keeps skin soft and supple all day long. I was worried about size at first since the jar is very small but a little goes a long way with this formula. - Product gifted... +

Beautiful French patisserie gourmand type fragrance with notes of almond and vanilla in a heavy glass bottle with fine mister.
The fragrance is heavenly - in line with L'Occitane's Amande line - however lasting power is simply not there: the scent of the almond hand cream lingers longer than this mist.
I would revisit this scent in an EdP format however, but it's just not a viable option to carry the heavy glass bottle around for constant reapplication.

Absolutely stunning body oil packed with gold-yellow-green sparkles. Smells like the rest of the Amande line - creamed almond with a hint of sugar and pastry. Would look blinding on tanned/deep skin tones. If you're in love with L'Occitane's almond scent, you're in for a treat - the fragrance in this oil lingers much longer than the rest of the line.

Clean Collective Classic Strawberry Fields Eau de Parfum 🍓
The name says it all. A pretty straightforward, slightly artificial, soft, fruity, feminine fragrance that's clean, vegan, eco-conscious, PETA-approved and rather linear.
Doesn't last long, doesn't project much, I'd certainly say it's a skin-scent - might be because of the rollerball.
Safe formula that probably won't trigger allergies - quite possibly a migraine-contender however. It is not a safe blind buy (no scents are, truly!)
Although this fragrance takes the entire strawberry plant complete with leaves, flowers and vines and as such it has a green-grassy facet to it, I wouldn't say it's a well-balanced scent with depths and layers.
All in all, 3 out of 5 stars. If you're into strawberry scents, this one is really affordable.

I have no tact, I wasn't born to be a diplomat - I'm sure my review clearly reflects that.
I've been a major fan of Clean Collective's fragrances for years, burned through many bottles of Rain, Solar Bloom, Warm Cotton and Skin (both Reserve and Classic) so i was naturally overjoyed to be able to try Whipped Cherry.
I adore a cherry note in gourmand scents, and what's better than realistic fruit in a truly clean formula? I was expecting mouthwateringly fluffy, whipped vanilla sweetness coupled with hopefully maraschino cherries. But would have settled for cherry jam.
Whipped Cherry sadly has no depth, no layers, no notes to it. It's one synthetic, linear juice - ambroxan/cetalox. It's cold, it's without character and it's over-the-top.
I'm giving it 2 stars because this juice lasts 2-3 days of fabric and almost impossible to wash off skin.
Please remember, fragrance is subjective and it might be your next favourite thing. Sadly it's not a scent for me.
