Definitely get how this is unisex because it turns straight to the male sex. It goes from a Dior “sting” of old-school Trident, warm and cozy a la Dior Addict and Hypnotic Poison, but then it turns toward the MMMMan side of Barbasol Shaving Cream! This is exactly how it smells after the quick open. Shaving Cream! When I invited my 11-year-old to smell my arm and tell me what he thought, he said, “Your arm smells like grandpa’s face.” Enough said.
What is that decidedly manish note? Smells like a stinging old-school shaving cream. What is that note? Can someone please answer so I know, for the future, what note it is that I DON’T like? My guess is geranium.

Vanilla Extreme!
A very sweet, white-floral, vanilla-caramel combination. It’s vanilla-caramel first, & the rest are tune-ups for this combo.
Weirdly, I like it when I usually hate cloyingly sweet fragrances. Maybe because Juliette figured the ultimate balance of how to be too sweet but not cloy.
To be honest, though, I’ve smelled it before. There is something else on the market that smells like this. It turns out, per Fragrantica’s ratings, it’s Dior Poison. Figures!
Also, my wife hates it.
A polarizing perfume, that’s for sure.
Performance-wise, it’s one of the best longevity & sillag wise.
AntiptJiz – :
It smells like angel food cake. I love it!
macosbyk – :
At first spray, I was Mmmm. Then upon wearing it, there is something very familiar about it… Still can’t place what, I am thinking some hair product from mid ninties? Sadly the lack of variation in this, is off putting. I like a scent that has an opening, middle and dry down. I am not getting that from this. To me this is a Chambord Jello shot, with sugar on the rim. I can understand the appeal, and appreciate the scent, but I would be bored of it rather quickly.
maks6700sl – :
Powder. Caramel. Reminiscent of Prada Candy.
The raspberry note seems to come out the next day. If you are not getting any raspberry from this, just wait 12 hours.
carbin6 – :
This was a total impulse buy. A Sephora SA watched me grabbing a bunch of travel sprays, and, noticing they were mostly gourmands, pointed me towards Mmmm… I spritzed some on and said, “Yeah, not bad!”, but she was all, “Omg this is my favorite perfume in the whole wide world I wanna eat it you’re gonna love it!!!”
I think that the truth about Mmmm… probably lies somewhere in the median of our reactions!
When I wear this I feel as though I’m enveloped in a musky marshmallow cloud. I realize marshmallow isn’t a listed note here, but that is the overall effect it has on me. I appreciate the addition of the musk, sandalwood, and various floral notes, as they help temper the overt sweetness of berry and caramel.
All in all, it’s a safe, inoffensive gourmand that I found interesting enough to repurchase, but nothing I go crazy for. Nice to keep around for days when I’m craving something sweet, but not over-the-top. The name is cute and appropriate, though I do find myself secretly praying that nobody asks what I’m wearing, because I’d rather not say it out loud.
Karepe – :
All i smell on my skin is heavy patchouli, it gave me a headache 🙁 really bad blind buy
andrejvxc – :
I do not know what to think about this one. My husband loves it and insisted in buying it for me. I am not so in love with it, like him. It is surely unique, but also weird. To me, it is not really gourmand. It is a moderately sweet perfume, but it doesn’t give me the MMMM… feeling of the name. The opening is the strangest part. I get a powdery caramel mixed with something hard to describe. It is something a bit unpleasant, with an oriental, exotic touch. Probably patchouli. I also get a certain cosmetic vibe. I think the iris is responsable for this.
It is an elegant and intriguing perfume, that is for sure, but not exactly my cup of tea.
I tested it multiple times to see if it would grown on me, but it did not.
Anyway, i can not say it is bad, but i think many people will need time to get used to it.
Sillage is soft and longevity is 12 hours +.
gorryu – :
It worked for the first 5 minutes….Mmmm. I wanted to wash it off an hour later. Gave it to my daughter in law soon after that. It’s just a heavy caramel and something else that is sweet and heavy but my nose is not trained enough to name. To be fair I wore it while doing Sunday housework in 102 degree weather…but the AC was full blast. Maybe it’s a winter scent but I’m not invested or interested enough to try it again.
sheltulena – :
Got a sample of this and yes, it is Hypnotic Poison lite, without the complexity and sillage. I know many are not a fan of HP (I am) so if you don’t like HP, you won’t like this imposter.
The sillage was medium, the longevity short. It is a sweeter, less interesting version of HP. Pure, lazy marketing on JHAG’s part, IMO.
DuroEnutt – :
I love this. Years ago in PA I grew the most beautiful heliotrope flowers, and the gorgeous sweet floral scent would waft through the front windows – THIS is the closest I’ve come to having that scent replicated. The creamy base adds just a little warmth. I typically shy away from things with sweet in the description, but this is sweet done in a mostly natural way, at least on me. Starts off a little strong with the raspberry/vanilla coming across as an airy gourmand treat, but quickly settles into that rich heliotrope I’ve craved for years.
DillMoigh – :
Smells very similar to Tesori Fiore del Dragone!!
Also a sweeter Confetto (Profumum). Very long lasting.
avtopolet – :
This smells so great with tanning oil!
maltsev_alexey-88 – :
Mediocre at best. Maybe a 5 out of 10 for me.
My best friend wore Hypnotic Poison, and I agree that Mmmm smells like something she would also wear. So this will not win any originality awards. I think the motivation here is making a crowd-pleaser, and from a business perspective I understand why. My guess is that JHAG will sell a boat load of bottles.
Also, I really hate the name. It’s an ughhh for me.
9055987 – :
Soft creamy sandalwood floral – different from any of the other vanilla gourmands in my wardrobe. I love the lightest touch of fruity raspberry – not overwhelming. This is beautifully balanced – not too floral or too sweet – perfectly unisex and cosy. I’ll be wearing this a lot in the cooler weather. I love my vanillas, but I love them a bit earthy and grounded and this fits the bill. The sandalwood is smooth and holds the scent in luscious creamy bouquet.
I wasn’t sure I’d like it when I first sprayed, but the drydown is simply mmmm. Great projection and longevity – a successful blind swap – thanks Bronwyn!
Ertoplin – :
I would wear this in three seasons out of four. It’s too heavy for summer. I’m wearing it now on a chilly Spring day while at work. Been told I smell great more than once today, and the day isn’t over (and Mmmm is still going strong). Projection, sillage, and longevity are all superb.
I’ve noticed that most (perhaps all) of the reviewers of this fine perfume have been women. Am I the only man who believes they can pull this off? It does lean feminine, but not overly so. On my skin this has the overall effect of a root beer float with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream. I categorize this fragrance as a floral gourmand.
It’s hard to isolate the raspberry note, as it seems to be part of an accord, latching onto the florals, and the vanilla and the caramel. Iris is also well hidden, but since iris is one of my favorite notes of all time, I can pick it out with some olfactory effort.
I bought 100 ml of this in September of 2017, and my bottle is nearly half empty. I have many bottles to choose from, but I reach for this very often. It’s one of those fragrances that doesn’t just complete your outfit or enhance your confidence; it actually makes me happy.
rooncealo – :
I’m not getting any raspberry at all… Just synthetic sharp florals… A scrubber for me
ILF – :
Like it, I smell sweet raspberry like candy Mamba Raspberry. A bit synthetic but still tasty raspberry- vanilla. I didn’t get a opening on skin – smell is kinda straight forward. Wish it could laat longer than few hours on my skin.
Gabriella_fromAD – :
While this does have a Play Doh smell like Hypnotic Poison, I think it smells more like medicated berry chapstick; it’s a medicinal/mentholated, waxy, creamy and berry concoction.
jamilia – :
a friend brought mmm to mine after she’d been shopping for scents and one spray and i was murmuring mmmmmm so it’s true to it’s name. it is lovely. vanilla and caramel with hint of raspberry and sandalwood. soft and creamy and dreamy.
i cant see any similarity to hypnotic poison. it doesnt have the star of anise note which makes hypnotic poison a stand out and as for a cheap version??? i’d hardly call JHAG cheap.
bottom line… mmmmm is exactly that. yummy, lovely, warm and cosy.
ady767JeomiWogkig – :
this starts with creamy raspberries, caramel and sandalwood. a few minutes later i get orange blossom/neroli and heliotrope. hmm, so far i don’t think this smells much like hypnotic poison at all. maybe a similar feel in some ways though-soft and powdery. it’s a creamy powdery raspberry overall. pretty scent! comforting and sweet.
UR_ – :
It’s so gorgeous, I love it!
rnp338bedyWelty – :
This smelled interesting on the blotter, a pleasing mix of anise, mint, tart raspberry, and a sort of powdery yet expansive nose feel that I hadn’t experienced before. There was a sweetness to the scent, not like caramel but sort of like stevia or aspartame? It was a good smell, and I kept sniffing the blotter to figure it out – I hadn’t experienced synthetics that smelled this way before. I got a sample and unfortunately on my skin, the minty salicilates become monstrous and combine with patchouli and raspberry to form a minty/raspberry cough syrup for the first hour or so of the scent’s progression. Later, it has a tangy raspberry, heliotrope / powdery mixed white floral, and patchouli. It doesn’t smell bad anymore but it doesn’t smell like the interesting and nice smell from the blotter. I don’t get a lot of sweetness or caramel. Dang. I’ll try it again on clothes, but so far a lot of JHAG scents have gone synthetic haywire on me and this one might just be a no go. But this is one I wish worked on me, because I really liked the blotter smell!
kiralightman – :
As I blind bought it based on the notes I was afraid at first seeing people talk about similarity with DIOR HP or HP Sensuelle. But oh my it’s not and actually i can’t understand how people find these three similar (maybe it’s new HP version), because I have both – an old formulation of HP and first edition of HP Sensuelle so the only similarity with MMMM.. to me is powdery dry smelling notes and a hint of tuberose and HP(old one) is way total dry sugary almonds, while sensuelle is more moist and juicy orchid vanilla
ZZZandZZZ – :
I absolutely love this.
The impression: An almond croissant served beside custard and dot of berry jam. Those tins of French rose and orange blossom anise candies. And vases full of the creamiest summer flowers.
This is a mood-lifting powdery white floral merged with a comforting, subtle gourmand scent. There’s nothing chocolaty, boozy, or syrupy here, and nothing overtly artificial. More specifically: creamy white floral notes like tuberose, jasmine, honeysuckle; orris butter; sweet almond; anise; and something sweet and buttery. It projects quite a bit when first sprayed, but softens quickly, and lasts around 6 hours on me before becoming a faint skin scent. Got immediate (and repeated) compliments at home.
I have several warm floral-orientals, and clean white florals at the moment, so this suits my winter style perfectly without duplicating anything else in my collection.
maydayexcum – :
My new favourite fragrance, I love it! This is completely delicious and a great dupe for Hypnotic Poison, this smells like fizzy vanilla root beer float with a little bit of raspberry and just a hint of sandlewood, it totally lives up to its name. There’s something about this scent that makes me feel nostalgic, I can see myself reaching for this one often.
acallockelo – :
A bit more powdery than HP but definitively similar, beautiful. <3
ils094intitytek – :
it does have some similarity to hypnotic poison. both are deep, smooth and powdery soft. sillage and longetivity are also similar. I think the prominent note of jasmine brings much to this. however they are seriously parting ways at the very first sniff because of the explosion of raspberry in this one, whereas coconut is defining hypnotic poison. both are equally good in my opinion, and i own both of them. it’s the current mood that decides which one i’m going to wear. juliette has a gun is powerful but playful and optimistic, but hypnotic poison is darker and more serious.
hedinyaleterulu – :
Simply Hypnotic Poison in a different bottle.
sergec – :
I really love this fragrance. Its strong and powerful on my skin. Its also sweet but deep. Its everything I crave from a perfume. Jasmine is my weakness and I detect that in this offering. Powdery and very well balanced. I got this as my monthly pick from Scentbird. I really might just have to order the full bottle. Its growing on me even more as I type this! It will be perfect for fall and winter. Mmmmm is a perfect name for this delicious perfume.
Сад – :
Lovely for fall and winter. Straight up Vanilla root beer float , hint of black licorice. Gourmond but the saspirilla keeps it fresh. I prefer this sprayed on clothing instead of skin. Got a couple samples from Sephora (im a VIB beauty insider and influencer). Very similar to hypnotic poison and the discontinued “by night” by Christina Aguillara. Mmmm.. is in of my top five favorite scents of 2017. I have a full size candle made by Juliette has a gun… In there very first fragrance launch, I forgot the name of the scent. But it is available for sale so contact me if u collect Juliette had a gun candles and make me an offer. Review by CycoEva Eva
jeseacCer – :
One word: LOVE
When I first got it as a scentbird sample I tought “good but nothing much”, but with ther me this grew on me! I tought was going to be a good one for spring but it actually works better for me on summer! Its beautiful!!! Love the almond and the sweetness of the raspberry you really think “hmmm” when you smell it.
PornoPystota – :
My new signature scent. Mmmm… Became an instant favorite.
Sweet, creamy, slight fruity, with a sexy edge. The scent is absolutely intoxicating and I can’t stop smelling my wrist when I wear it.
My skin is on the drier side and I have problems with longevity, but Mmmm… will last for 5-6+ hours. The projection is moderate, and I feel this is a versatile fragrance – office friendly to date night.
I’ve received a number of compliments while wearing this scent and it’s definitely going to be a repurchase in the future.
fenokopia – :
Very pretty: a fluffy frothy raspberry mousse-vanilla genoise thing that won over this sweet-and-fruit hater almost completely. It smells light pink, too, but in a deliciously natural way, not a plastic-Barbie way. The fruit is fresh and tart as well as sweet – it’s not syrupy or jammy or *too* synthetic-smelling, and the other elements (powder, sandalwood) just round it out nicely rather than fighting it for dominance. I could have sworn I smelled a note of rose in there but this might be a trick of the raspberry+white flower combo. Personally I could live without the vanilla, which verges on cloying in some moments, but it recedes into the mix after a while.
Not my bag, but nicely done – EXCEPT for the eternal JHAG problem with longevity. On me this is a skin scent only after 2 hours and gone completely in 5.
vikmay – :
This is like a mix between Dior Hypnotic Eau Sensuelle and Mugler’s Alien. The longevity is very good at least 6-7 hours with moderate sillage. Lovely!
FriendRyan – :
Mmmmmm….yes! This is the closest thing to the original formula Dior Hypnotic Poison but honestly, maybe even better. Delicious.
SanMlat – :
I am in absolute love! I was not expecting to love this perfume as much as I do now. I got it from Sephora on a whim because it’s a relatively new brand and I like trying new scouted brands. Quite interesting to say the least… I was expecting it to smell very old fashioned like the other perfumes of the brand that I have smelled (tons of oud and woody notes in others), but as soon as I sprayed it once on my wrist, it’s like I’ve flown to the sweetest place on Earth! One spray is all it took to take me away. It smells super sweet, very cozy, creamy, sexy, and delicious. To me, it smells like a mix of Givenchy’s Hot Couture with the raspberry note and Mugler’s Alien with the sambac jasmine. I can’t stop smelling my wrist and every time I move my arm, I can smell this faint, delectable scent! It lasts pretty well, too. So heavenly! I will definitely repurchase this and I have a feeling this will be one of my signature scents!
ALEXsandr92 – :
I tried and reviewed “Not a Perfume” earlier today. (I have the JHAG discovery kit.) As NAP faded, I thought I’d layer it with Mmmm and see what happened.
The initial blast for me was neroli with a little vanilla. Warm and sweet. Then the sandalwood made its appearance, creating a woody and almost spicy sweetness. I didn’t detect anything else. Now, two hours on, Mmmm has blended with what remains of the NAP’s Ambrox. The result?
Dragon’s Blood incense. On my arms.
I happen to like Dragon’s Blood incense and even have some. I’m just not entirely sure I want to smell like it from perfume. I’m not detecting the smokiness which is always present when burning incense, but to my nose, and on my skin, the rest is identical. I kind of dig it, but I’m also freaking out a little because it’s so weird. I’ll definitely layer them again now that I know what to expect. I’m hoping to pick up other notes.
I’ll update this review after I wear Mmmm by itself. I do want to explore it on its own.
Вован777 – :
This one might be worth checking out if you’re looking for a “Hypnotic Poison Lite”. I’m not a HP fan and for me this is one of the most boring releases from JHAG. The performance is way below average. Thumbs down. 🙁
cynopT69 – :
This wears very creamy, warm and musky on me; opens up with a bright note with the raspberry, then immediately after it’s vanilla/caramel, almond-y and sandalwood. I get zero of the following notes: Géranium, Néroli, Tuberose, Orange Blossom, Jasmine – no floral or citrus on me whatsoever. It’s not a typical vanilla thanks to the musk, however this does not last long at all, probably 30 minutes or so with 2 spritz. Today I sprayed a lot more and an hour and half later it’s still there but it’s very soft. I like it, but I don’t think it’s worth the price for the length of time it lingers.
Wu – tang – :
weird smell. It starts with an eyewatering sweet blast, and then it changes in something not from this world. Can’t explain the smell. Green and sweet? Synthetic and almost not there anymore in less than an hour. Hmmm, she said, in a low voice.
Lule4ek – :
Rather disappointing. I get a bit of raspberry, but mostly a faint, sugary, cotton candy that disappears immediately. No projection, only lasted about an hour on my skin (longer on clothes). Inoffensive and probably a safe gift, but not worth the price tag.
JetyulonBL – :
This is nice, but not for me. Very sweet, slightly fruity, slightly powdery. There is a loud caramel note. Very creamy. A unique sweet scent. Very pleasant balance between something warm and earthy and something sweet and fruity. Just well done. Juliette Has a Gun has surprised me again, they consistently make nice unique scents for unique ladies. Can’t go wrong here. 7.5/10
inhasogsPig – :
Not for me. The opening burst of powdery raspberry seemed promising, but followed immediately by sugared vanilla made it less so. Do I smell a hint of white chocolate? The dry down is a mess, cloyingly sweet and sugary and powdery too. Yes, I get play-dough, and sugared raspberry-filled doughnuts, and stepping into a candy store. These may be things others want to smell like, but not me. This was a sample that goes into the giveaway pile. It is still strong after an hour with one spritz on the wrist, and seems like it may have good staying power, but is giving me a headache so I am going to shower it off. A wonderful name for a fragrance but for me, it’s not Mmm-it’s Ugh.
wares – :
Sample #2 from the set. Clean , cool……interesting. The note stand out more here than in Hypnotic Poison. Like there are several thing going on at once. I like that! A three ring circus!
AdarnedShen – :
“Urmmmm…”
The dry down of Mmmm is indeed similar to Hypnotic Poison. This sweet, milky almond coated with tuberose nuances is warm and strong just like HP. However It opens with a more edgy fruitiness that I personally think doesn’t go with the perfume. The fresher notes (geranium, neroli) doesn’t help to balance the sticky caramel though. Instead they are kinda just sitting there….
If I were to buy perfumes this style I would choose Hypnotic Poison Eau Senseulle over this. Not worth the monty IMO.
Xishnik-111 – :
From first blast to dry down, this perfume is, on my skin, note for note, a complete reincarnation of Hypnotic Poison. Same deep vanilla mixed with spices and that unmistakable creamy almond note. In fact, the similarity between these two juices is so significant that I would go so far to say that the difference is in the packaging itself: different brand, different look, same juice.
And, that being said, I’d rather just go with Hypnotic Poison.
gstyueioapqo – :
yuck! first spray was yucky and dry down was double yucky. The “raspberry” comes off as grape bubble gum to me, and the “powdery iris” smells like my grandmas baby powder poof thing she kept on her vanity when I was a child. Oh yah and also there is a faint playdoh smell that is also off putting. it smells cheap and I can’t wait to scrub this off. If anyone want a free 1.7ml tester bottle of this I’m happy to swap or send to you if you cover shipping.
Overveprime – :
On first spritz, I get a brief whiff of mint and berry (2 minutes max) with a powdery base, but the mint and berry quickly burns off and leaves me with a cozy, warm scent. Typically warm scents are loaded with amber and vanilla, but those notes don’t appear here. The warmness seems to stem from sandalwood and iris. I really like it and don’t have anything similar in my current wardrobe, however I sensed a similarity of Mmm… to one of my old loves – Cacharel’s Lou Lou. Loua Lou is more in your face, but I get the same cozy warmess from both. Really enjoying JHaG’s Mmm..
SAWRASSER – :
I really don’t like the opening…smells something like a spittoon with both cherry and wintergreen Skoal in it to me, which always kind of lingers.
That said, me and patchouli are frenemies: I want to love her, but she just grates so harsh with my chemistry.
I see where this is going, and on some people, I bet it does smell edible. (Of course, those spittoons I smell wouldn’t exist if people didn’t like the taste of cherry and mint tobacco, so..)
Despite the rugged note one would expect from something that conjures such manly redneck tobacco vibes, I feel this is, at heart, a much more femme scent, more fit for pretty goth and emo boys than otr truckers. But you never know, this could also be your secret weapon: best smelling guy ever was a big burly farmer boy I knew who stole his sister’s white musk and wore it like a boss…
Lydayzorway – :
Beautiful!!!! Gorgeous raspberry!!! The best raspberry perfume I’ve ever had the pleasure of smelling!!! It’s fabulous!! So sweet and juicy and full and ripe and real!! Beautiful sandalwood, gorgeous vanilla, sparkling orange blossom, fragrant tuberose and jasmine, lovely gentle patchouli and divine musk and heliotrope………absolutely heavenly perfume!!!! It lasts so well too, 14 hours! Loads of yummy compliments, and my husband loooooves it!!! Beautiful!!!!! And I love wearing it to bed too!!! Sweet dreams!!!!
Ratoovets – :
I feel like this perfume captured the fruity tuberose elements of the original hypnotic poison.
But to me this is more refined because there’s no vanilla overload.
Love how it smells kind of 90s
The notes strongest to me were the tuberose and raspberry for sure, followed by powdery sandalwood.
When I finish my bottles of hp I will be getting a bottle of this..or maybe even sooner.
(I really hate the name though)
tolyaka – :
Oh my, I had high hopes for this one. I’ve spent the last couple of days trying to love it. But I think I have to admit, it’s a very “thin” gourmand with too many synthetics competing with what I want to smell. Combined with weak projection and okay longevity, this sums up to a disappointment. It starts off with an ultra sweet saccharine burst, then a powdery iris appears. It gets really weak before the dry down, but sandalwood dominates until the end. But while a lot of scents do sweet iris really beautifully, this one barely whispers it. I wanted so much MORE. This didn’t make me go “Mmmm….” it made me go “Hmmmm…”
denspecnsk – :
For me, it is a cheap version of Hypnotic Poison by Dior. I thought I could love it, but definitely to much synthetic ingredients involved, that do not create an alluring smell. I have to test how others like the smell on me. When I wear it I don’t feel glamorous, I feel I am wearing a celebrity fragrance. Bottom line- I expect more from this brand.
niseok2011niseok – :
I love this fragrance. It drove me nuts because it smelled so familiar to me. I finally realized this is very similar but a bit sweeter than an old (discontinued) favorite of mine Nokomis by Coty. I am definitely going to purchase this.
ClirtyUtteria – :
Mmmm… This is commanding but not loud. Extremely sweet but not saccharine. This starts out with a strong blast of the fruits — although my nose had difficulty discerning what kind. It then morphs into an almost floral-gourmand, but stays close to the skin in a way that most gourmands don’t. I particularly enjoy the jasmine in this, which is not at all indolic. Although no such notes are listed, I get a touch of licorice or anise as well.
To me, this could be in the same family as TF’s Orchid Soleil, but the much younger second cousin that still has all her youthful, natural beauty and does not need the heavy makeup and cloying perfume to make a lasting impression Orchid Soleil does. So maybe she’s not as sophisticated, but she’s more down to earth, and may still attract more men!
joni-levidze – :
More HHHmmm, than mmmm to my nose!
The reason?
This is a major change from what I normally expect from JHaG.
The raspberry is definitely the dominant note. Its goal to bring about sweetness, not a juicy fruit accord. The raspberry smells powdered, which I think I might just prefer to a more watery raspberry note. The powder also makes it less than ‘edible’ to me. A good thing for a relatively non-gourmand girl. I just voted, but seem to be the only one thus far to detect the vanilla. It presents rather prominently for me, so I’m surprised to be the loner. I also am pleasantly surprised by the unlisted almonds, but they are most welcomed to this fragrance.
I reallllly like this, it’s approachable, friendly, comfortable and linear for the most part (though more sandalwood shines later). Mmmm is consistently beautiful from top to bottom. A perfect casual (and unexpected) offering from JHaG.
The thing is, I’m not sure I need it. I didn’t wear my similar Delices from Cartier and this is more than a little Hypnotic. Which is, of course, a very, VERY good thing. BUT, it might just be a redundant thing for some of us.
Noteworthy Notes
–raspberry
–vanilla
–a powdery accord
–an almond accord
–sandalwood
–florals are friendly and sedated
Missing ‘Notes’
–the JHaG signature
–not as much patchouli as I hoped. I’m addicted, so keep that in mind 🙂
HHHmmm, maybe redundant isn’t always a bad thing. In this fragrance, it just might be the best thing.
Brick – :
I’m surprised at how much I enjoy this! I’ve never smelled a cozy raspberry scent before, but here it is! Usually when I think of raspberry, I think of something super sweet and summery, but this is actually a great winter scent. It definitely lives up to its name!
Fillin – :
What a perfect name for a perfect new fragrance! This is the first time that I have bought a JHAG scent – I’m not a big fan of this brand, but in the case of Mmmm… it was love at first sniff. Mmmm… is a floral gourmand (if such a category even exists). It contains some of my favourite notes – iris, jasmine, tuberose, patchouli, sandalwood, orange flower, plus a hefty dose of raspberry and some vanilla (not listed, but it’s definitely there – or maybe it’s the sandalwood playing tricks on me). I absolutely love balsamic notes, and my skin tends to emphasise them, and this is exactly what happens with Mmmm…
I purchased a big 100ml bottle, because it’s the best value for money. The colour of the bottle (raspberry pink) might trick you into believing that this is a fruity girly scent, but actually it is more creamy and powdery than sweet, and guys can easily pull this off. The silage is moderate, but the longevity is excellent – I sprayed this fragrance on my wrists in the morning, and twelve hours later, it’s still there.
эмиль – :
I shouldn’t review this since I’ve never liked a gourmand scent. At first, I smell play-dough but beyond that, I’m not sure what I’m smelling in this one. It almost smells nice but there is something that smells very cheap. It’s a pungent smell that I can’t imagine anyone would enjoy. I had hoped this would be a scent that pulled me out of my comfort zone but I can barely stomach it.
andriy100 – :
Mmm indeed… A nice smelling edible scent.
I think there’s more than just tuberose, sandalwood and fruity raspberry.
I sense vanilla and almond as well. Or at least tonka bean.
It’s creamy, balsamic and delicious. Great for cold and crisp winter.
Also, cute pink bottle.
oleguska – :
This is very weak on me..I like it but hardly smell it, yes similar to HP EDT.
el-nn – :
Intoxicating white flowers and mouthwatering red berries (but not too much!), with some ‘tutti-frutti’ bubble gum weird but funny and pleasant gourmand vibe, also with a prominent note of fleur d’orange, light and airy powdery trace of iris and freshness of sandalwood with just a little hint of patchouli. Young and yummy, a joyful scent, with a moderate longevity and sillage.
victor47 – :
Mmmmmmmm it is!!!!!
Literally when you sniff where you have sprayed, mmmmmm is the first thought that comes to my mind.
Like Mim stated it is very creamy/dreamy and very similar to to HP edt but definitely not the edp with all that smoky liquorice.
This is heavenly and my only regret is not buying the biggest bottle!!!!

Creamy sweet and sexy , warm vanilla scent with an almond vibe. Smooth and gourmand , I agree it reminds me of hypnotic poison.
I read somewhere that it’s like a vanilla cream puff with orange scented neroli ,, I find that to Be true .
I also like genny17 review and Mims review below , It does have a plastics playdoe resemblance of HP and the Jasmine is very noticeable as she says.
The tuberose and vanilla along with the orange blossom and some Jasmine seem to be dominant to my nose. It’s a powdery scent and there is a hint of iris in there that becomes quite dominant here and there , the sandalwood helps to make this creamy and smooth and last for a long time. Perfumes with sandalwood just are cozy in the drydown and have this good aroma in my opinion. This is a nice scent well done . Very enjoyable to wear any day. Thanks for the sample genny17 i just ordered my bottle from Luckyscent .

Very pleasant! Definitely a tuberose/Jasmine combination, with an almondish undertone, and a rounded iris note.. .nicely done, a bit sweet, not overdone, I don’t detect any patchouli..lit reminds me of Hypnotic Poison eau Sensuelle, in the almondish plasticky smell..
This isn’t a strong scent , it has a lovable creamy edge , this is a feminine floral creation ! Longevity is real good…
It has a warm sweet aura, it isn’t like anything new, but I like the warm cozy floral vibe…now if you dislike tuberose, this might not work for you .
