So, this really does smell like vanilla cake batter – for a few seconds. It’s not actually very sweet. My quibbles are that the tangy / batter note can go a little saliva-esqe or metallic on me sometimes. Also the longevity and projection are not good, even for Demeter. The scent is also rather cheap smelling and chemical. Though I like the interesting batter aspect that distinguishes this scent from the millions of other vanilla-centric fragrances, I don’t wear it.

I had this in high school. It’s a very sticky vanilla that feels simultaneously heavy and light like actual cake batter. I liked it at the time, but I eventually got tired of wearing it so much. Maybe someday I’ll get a new bottle for nostalgia. It’s a good one, but try in samples or in-store before you buy.

Artificial, chemical scent, sour,cloying and just awful,something in it make my stomach churn. I don’t know how to describe this scent. Maybe I got a bad bottle,but it smelt nothing like Vanilla cake batter. The Vanilla note was not what,I smelled. I got a free sample with a purchase,and threw it away after several sprays.

smells like a vanilla scented candle.Was hoping for a little more buttery sugary cake batter,sadly only vanilla candle on me.I have the oil rollerball,and projection is nil,longevity,maybe an hour.I purchased nine different Demeter scents back in March,and this is the first one to be tested.I was hoping I would find one I liked well enough to buy a full bottle.This one is not it.

I have the perfume oil and it has almost no sent to it. I can only smell it for about 5 minutes before the sent is gone but my skin remains oily for hours. The sent is true to name but is so light that only the wearer will smell it. My boyfriend always makes a comment on the perfumes I wear. When I put this on the first time I asked if he liked it and he said he couldn’t smell it. I was very disappointed. Maybe the spay perfume has a stronger sent than the oil…

This smells like sweet vanilla pipe tobacco. I get that feeling of walking through the airport and seeing an older man with a nice pipe hanging out of his mouth enjoying himself. Not much like Cake Batter.

Yes this does smell exactly like Vanilla cake batter! Sad part is the scent leaves so fast. I will try layering it on top of a Vanilla scented Lotion, or if anthing else i can use it on top of other fragrances that last longer.

I have the roll on version and it smells like plastic vanilla. It doesn’t last more then two minutes. Maybe the spray version would be better. Best suited for children. I think they could have done a better job on this. If you want to get this save some money and get a bottle of vanilla extract at the grocery store.

I purchased the roll-on, and it smells good – just like everyone else said, it does smell exactly like cake batter. For about 3 minutes. Then… poof…gone… 🙁

Heavenly, quiet, sweet vanilla without that commonly found buttery base that is so prevalent in popular vanilla scents. And not too ultra-vanilla as if it were actually from the kitchen cabinet! Bought the small roll-on today and I may just zoom back out later and get the larger spray-on bottle…the scent wafting from my wrists is perfection! Soft, delicate, and,despite what has been written previously, not too foody in my opinion. I may have found my perfect perfume at Rite Aid when I was least expecting it!!!
EDIT/UPDATE: Awk! The spray version is so different than the roll-on one I reviewed! Just went to buy the spray and didn’t after trying it out. Experienced the plastic smell I’d read about in reviews here!
I’ll enjoy the roll on and leave it at that.

It is a really real representation of the real life thing, vanilla cake batter! It is vanilla-y, in a modest, quieter, simply vanilla way, plus the home-y gramma’s kitchen feel called to mind by the wet, cool smell of goo-y batter.
Vanilla Cake Batter is so far the only sweet foody scent from Demeter that I find not too overwhelming, and I can comfortably wear day to day. It is somewhat a comfy scent close to your skin, and gives the carefree feel of childhood.

It is a cute fragrance, and smells like a cake. I like sweet scents and this one is nice. Not much more to describe it as the name says it all. I would spritz it on my linens to have softly scented sheets, as the scents last.

smells exactly like vanilla cake batter… sorry but there’s nothing else to say about it! It is what it is!
