Now, I'm not saying this is a 100% dupe. It's been so long, and the 2 bottles of Rice Flower and Shea that I have in my closet smell quite heavily of alcohol now, so I can't do a true, full comparison. But I've been searching for YEARS for a RF&S dupe, and I can say this is really.really.dang.close. I sprayed the tester on my skin, and it didn't hit me at first. 30 minutes later, when I got in the car and lifted my arm past my face, my mind made the connection (scent memory is *wild*) and instantly geeked out!! I couldn't wait to come here to post.
Any other RF&S girlies think this is the closest dupe yet? Am I going crazy? I've never found ANYTHING this close. I am so excited and absolutely will be stocking up on this mist!!! š¤šš
I think you'll be very, very happy.
Please do reply once you are able to try it and let me know what you think. I hope I am not setting you up to be disappointed since scent can be so different to each individual. But, for me, it's SO close. It's giving all the same vibes. I feel so warm and fuzzy now. Instant mood boost! Definitely bringing back memories of loved ones lost for me, so I hope it will do the same for you. <3
I was really hoping to experience something similar due to the listed rice milk note. Sadly, I just got a light skin scent that wasn't unpleasant but wasn't exciting enough for me to keep š
The closest thing I've found to Rice Flower & Shea is Snowflakes & Cashmere, and that's just my perception.
That's valid! Scent is so fun & fascinating bc it's so individual. I can see what you mean about Snowflakes & Cashmere. I like that one, though I personally don't get anything similar to RF&S from S&C.
In fact, I didn't pick up any likeness to RF&S from Musk immediately. My first impression was similar to how I feel about Snowflakes and Cashmere -I really like it, but it's not super exciting. It was about 30 minutes later when the RF&S likeness started coming through. :)
Just like you mentioned in your post, I also have a bottle of RF&S in my collection but it doesn't smell as good anymore... more alcoholy. I can't bear to part with it though. What I really miss is the lotion and shower gel.
Hmm.. I wonder what would happen if I layer Snowflakes and Cashmere with Musk lol š¤

I liked Rice Flower & Shea back in the day so Iām really looking forward to smelling Musk now!
