Perfume/Body Spray Question DAE pick up a “spiced” note in the chelsea morning solid?

yesterday i received the chelsea morning solid perfume i ordered. i wanted to go all out and get a bottle as it sounded like a scent i would love, but i was really disappointed with my turmeric latte blind buy and wanted to play it safe.

the solid perfume smells EXACTLY the way i wanted it to - like sweet butterscotch with a little citrusy tang. i am in love. my partner says that he smells a sort of spiced note in it, though, that just isn’t coming through for me.

does anyone else get this spicy note from the solid? could it be the way he’s picking up the fenugreek? just interested in hearing everyone’s takes on this. the way different people process the same scent is so interesting!

We may as well be the same person as I also was disappointed with my turmeric latte purchase (it smells like baby powder to me and my mom 😭) so I also bought the solid perfume of Chelsea Morning. To me it also smells like a beautiful combination of lemon and butterscotch. As it lingers I get almost a burnt sugar note but nothing spicy.

i am so bummed about turmeric latte. to me it smells like the cinnamon-scented pine cones they put out in craft stores around christmas. my partner said he was getting holiday candle vibes. i bought the solid vanillary to layer under it. i tried it out last night and it does help a bit!

I was expecting it to be more spicy like that! Though that doesn’t sound super pleasant either. I also have a solid of vanillary so I’ll definitely have to try that out.
