How does the 2023 version compare to the original 2020 release?+−
The 2023 version is often described as having a more refined balance of sweetness, though it retains the signature smoky, "burnt sugar" edge that the collaboration with Salt & Straw is known for. Some fans find the newer version slightly woodier due to the sandalwood and cinnamon.
Is this fragrance suitable for office wear?+−
Generally, no. Given its heavy sillage and intense gourmand profile, most users recommend it for casual outings, date nights, or outdoor winter events rather than professional business environments.
Does it actually smell like ice cream?+−
Not exactly. Instead of smelling like a cold scoop of vanilla, it focuses on the warm, toasted, and caramelized components of the shop—specifically the hot waffle iron, the syrup, and the spiced batter.
Is A Whiff of Waffle Cone truly unisex?+−
Yes. While it is very sweet, the addition of smoky accords, savory salted caramel, and a woody sandalwood base provides enough depth and "roughness" to appeal to anyone who enjoys gourmand scents regardless of gender.
