Stern Brunch Daddy smells like black coffee in a too-expensive mug, the sharp bite of citrus on your lips, and the lingering warmth of spice on his. It’s rich, smoldering, and just a little indulgent—burnt sugar, warm woods, a whisper of smoke. The kind of scent that lingers on your sweater and your skin, like the ghost of his hand at the small of your back. He orders for the table, reads the news in silence, and insists he’s not a dessert guy—then takes the first bite of yours, his mouth curving into a slow, knowing smirk.

Another one of my everyday scents. I love all the ingredients; some can be made out to me more than others. Specifically, I’m not really able to smell the grapefruit, even on initial spray, which is my only gripe. It’s hard to distinguish over the intense notes, but it comes out so pleasantly over time. The cloves note reminds me of gingerbread. LOVE this, I’m definitely going to get a bigger bottle.
I gave this a 9/10, such a nice breakfast gourmand
Let customers speak for us
from 184 reviewsI love these perfumes! I have been using the two I got daily and nightly because they smell so lovely!
I love the smell. It was a little different from what I was expecting, but I'm not mad about it! It is warm and great for spring.
I love this! Such a sweet, rich creamy scent. Delicious. Very cozy. I like it at bedtime.
Ordered a small sample of the Roseberry Briar scent and it is AMAZING. Such a delicious blend of floral and berry notes, it made me want to eat it 🤣
Light and sweet with depth
Unlocked memories I didn’t know I’d forgotten. All notes are very present in such a nice subtle way. The dry down scent smells just like the library from my childhood. Perfect fragrance for people who gravitate to a warm scent but don’t want it to be overpowering in the summer heat. I will be continuing to purchase as long as this scent is made. Beautiful creation, amazing work Tara 💛
Excellent scent descriptions and variety to choose from.
Love the soft, cashmere like smooth and floaty aroma.
Perfume sample arrived in decent time in a cute package, included a super tiny sample of a different perfume that went well with the scent I originally ordered. I’m very happy with my purchase, thank you!
Love the scent. Reminds me of fall.
Amazing scent! It truly does remind me of being in school as a kid, but in a good way. See, I went to school in Mass, and they are old and have creaky wooden floors (at least when I went to school lol). Smells like my childhood history class, and I love it! (Very nostalgic person here 😊) 10/10. 💖
Amazing scent - exactly as described and wonderful!
Love! The scent is very long lasting and wonderful! It does have a bit of a cherry scent to it whichI was initially worried about, not a fan of cherry and I wanted a violet scent, but it’s not overpowering at all and still is a true violet scent! Very delicious and sweet!
This has such a nice, warm, subtly spicy scent. It makes me think of harvest festivals!
At first I wasn't sure about it, then I absolutely fell in LOVE with this perfume. There's something very intoxicating about it. Maybe the cherry...maybe the chocolate... I can't tell exactly, but it's heavenly and I can't get enough.
