Does anyone else detect a very noticeable burning or smokey vibe from this? I certainly do, and it’s quite off-putting. I let the scent dry down for 3 hours and I still get that burning smell. I also pick up the smell of stale nuts, like when you buy a can of mixed nuts around Christmas and eat half, then forget about it until June and then make the mistake of trying to eat them. I wanted to like this, since many other Demeter fragrances are very close to their description, especially the pineapple which is my favorite scent of theirs.

My grandmother is the coolest lady I know. I introduced her to flaming hot Cheetos, and she forever changed my life by giving me my first bowl of pistachio ice cream. Demeter’s fragrance smells exactly like our favorite sweet treat; it’s practically edible. Definitely going to layer this one and get my Granny a bottle so she can sniff it when she gives up junk food for Lent. It’s that delicious!

This one is creamy and delicious, smells like marzipan. Overpowering if not used sparingly though. Doesn’t last for long

Pistachio Ice Cream is one of the few fragrances on this planet that can remind me so intimately of childhood. It smells exactly like described which, to me, reminds me of going to a cake store in a suburb near me called Greensborough. My mum didn’t exactly have much money, but one of the loveliest rituals we had when I was growing up was coming to this store and ordering a pie for lunch and then either a jam donut or pistachio ice cream for dessert before heading to an op shop to pick up some books and, if I was well behaved, a gameboy game.
I don’t really have much to say about the scent because it just really smells like the label says, but it also smells like these Sundays. We did all of this, went home and I may have played my Gameboy for an hour or two or possibly went for a bike ride. Very lovely trip down memory lane.

This smell has so many memories and love associated with it! The sweet, casual nuttiness of this scent is perfection. This is girly, but like… a cool girl. In Chicago, the Walgreens on State Street, you can actually smell all the Demeter regular line perfumes and purchase them. This is my favorite Demeter smell and I hope to expand my collection in the future. Ice cream parlour fantasy <3

At first sniff, just like pistachio ice cream, then it fades out to soft sweetness. I have this is lotion form and it’s very delicious to wear. I do agree with other reviewers that there is an almond note that is masquerading as pistachio here, but it works.

That cooling, ice cream scent that hits you when you walk into an ice cream parlor? This is exactly that. The “nut” note is subdued. It is pleasant but difficult to find an occasion for! It would almost do better as a room spray. It’s kind of an oddball.

I like it but I wish it weren’t such a faint scent. Maybe in a lotion it would last better…

I love this scent!!! It smells amazingly nutty, creamy, sweet and delicious! It does smell slightly like almonds but the note is not overpowering. It is a very balanced scent. I love it!

this just smells like plain marzipan to me. I was so disappointed when it arrived in the mail. smells nothing like pistachio. just like plain old marzipan made from almond. or really cheap almond extract.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Ben & Jerry’s Pistachio Ice Cream is one of my favorite flavors and I gotta say… Demeter’s Pistachio Ice Cream is FREAKING DEAD ON!
(If you haven’t tried the Ben & Jerry’s Pistachio – think Hagen-Dazs Pistachio.)
It truly smells like the ice cream tastes. I’m not talking about the cheapo extra dyed green pistachio ice creams – but the creamy rich nutty sweet ones that make your taste buds and olfactory senses jump for joy!
It is a nutty, sweet, creamy kind of delicious.
Great scent! Nice by itself and I bet would layer really nicely too.
Pistachio is the new Almond! LOL.
Downside = does not last long…but what Demeter does?
Upside = 120 mL between $18 – $32 USD depending where you buy/find.
ps – who ever voted on the accords – saying this was smoky? was likely smelling a fire in the distance or smoking! there is NO so called ‘smoky’ to this scent.

Not disappointed at all with the smell of this one. Great creamy pistachio scent, it is exactly as advertised, a pistachio flavored ice cream. It is sweet but not overwhelming, it’s a milky kind of sweetness with the nutty pistachio accent. I love it. Longevity is actually not so bad as I already expect short longevity from Demeter, but I can still smell it from wrist 5 hours after even if oh, so light.
Update: Got complimented on this one recently at a restaurant. The lady seated at the next table beside me said she was looking around for what dessert was smelling so good and she can’t see any. She realized it was me and asked me what delicious scent I was wearing because she’d love to wear it all day. I guess it wasn’t that light-smelling after all. 🙂

Mandulás süti illata van. Finom, mindenkit elvarázsol, de nem tartós

This was a little disappointing for me..It smells nice, but I was hoping it would smell more like Yves Rocher’s discontinued Pistachio scent.

Buy this. I purchased the oil and spray, and together, the scent is fantastic. It is very true to how you would think creamy pistachio smells. Great for everyday use.
