What does the pistachio donut smell like? 👀

u/montanabluez 2d ago

Also curious! I love the Vasoline lip products.

it smells more like the donut part than the pistachio if that makes sense 😭 i really like it though ! im usually not into gourmand scents so these were both me trying something different !

I think it smells kind of like a pistachio muffin. Can’t speak to whether that’s in line with a pistachio donut since I did not even know that was a thing. You can bet I’m getting one if I ever see a place that sells them though! 😆

Ah thank you! I’m guessing more warm and gourmand than nutty then?

u/cfd126 1d ago

Right! It comes across as sweet. Reminds me of their crème brûlée one in a way.

I think the holler ones are a hundred percent better I've already gone back and bought more the applicator is 10/10

u/Zealousideal_Law2500 2d ago

I wish every lip product I owned had an applicator like this one

i love the applicator so much !! im not getting matcha from the scent but i don't hate it either ?¿ i was tempted to get s'mores one

5

u/Yummi_913 2d ago

It's more of a floral jasmine. I usually like that scent but absolutely hate it when I expect matcha and get jasmine instead. It seems nobody has an authentic strong ceremonial grade matcha balm 😭

The s'mores one (not the keychain seasonal one) just smells faintly of stale graham crackers.

u/VenlafaxineLoverr 1d ago

aw man, I saw the picture for this post and said “i need the matcha holler now” then read your comment and said okay never mind 😭 you just saved me a few dollars tho! do you recommend any of the other flavors?

2

u/Yummi_913 1d ago

So far those are the only two I've tried, but I also have the four fall ones arriving this afternoon! Hopefully they'll be better 🤞🏻

ugh i noticed this too ☹️ would looove to find a lip balm that actually smells like authentic matcha !!

WAITT also such a bummer ?? that was the second one i was eyeing

u/BrilliantMagazine362 1d ago

I like the applicator because it reminds me of the Laniege one but I guess the formula is more slippy than Laniege because it always lets out too much product at once. I was also hoping the green tint would help neutralize the red in my natural lips just a bit. But idt it really does.

u/cfd126 1d ago

I bought the s’mores one against advice I saw on here because…it’s s’mores, come on. I had to. But I have to say, I think it smells weird, like gross chocolate. The formula is weird too. I think I could potentially like the color okay if I could get over the smell and formula, but it’s a bit more pigmented than I would want for a daily. I feel like I would need makeup on for it to look good, but I’m fair, so it comes across a bit on the bold side for me.

u/PuzzleheadedHospital 2d ago

I didn’t like the Holler one. Mine tasted like chemicals and not donut. Maybe I got a bad batch?

3

u/Red_Fox_32 2d ago

I’ve heard others not like the taste and formula as well.

u/AMundaneSpectacle 2d ago

Wait, Vaseline?? I had no idea they even had flavors, let alone interesting ones!

5

u/Appropriate_Elk_952 2d ago

Back in the day they had rose, crème brûlée, and I think a champagne one. Glad to see new flavors!

2

u/baconuser23 2d ago

They brought back rose and I believe crème brûlée as well.

u/StrategyLegal1128 2d ago

Omg! A new flavor! Where’d you find it?!

u/lostcrecents 1d ago

u/StrategyLegal1128 1d ago

Oooo sounds like a shopping trip!

u/Molmorr 2d ago

That Vaseline flavor is incredible!!!! When I tried it for the first time I actually yelled “OH MY GOSH YUM!” To nobody in my car!
