Hmm...

Blanche by ByredoByredoBlanche3.7201 ratings

Day 4 of my Byredo exploration with their discovery kit! This one is quite strange. I really do love clean, musky, and powdery scents. But this one instantly evoked to me, the smell of that bright pink industrial soap that you find in public restrooms. Definitely one not for me! But I love the rest of the house so far that I have put my nose to.

    Had the same thought when I smelled Blanche: public bathroom. That pink industrial soap is one of the many memorable scents of my former public school district 😂

      Absolutely. 🤣

    It’s definitely super-soapy. I really only spray it in my hairbrush to freshen up in between shampoos! I wore it on my skin once and as a skin-scent lover, I was underwhelmed.

    It’s funny when a scent memory hits and you can’t unsmell it. I don’t know this pink soap, so I’ve no recall of it. It’s the same as people constantly saying perfumes smell like dill pickle.. I’ve no idea what dill pickle is 🙈

      Haha, I know! It smells so pleasant I'm sure bit I just can't unsmell that soap. 🤣🤣

      I know EXACTLY that pink soap! If you ever suffer the misfortune of needing to use the public restroom in the middle of a remote US national park, you’ll know this smell well. It’s not bad, per se… but I would not want to wear it. Such an interesting take @pause_smeller that I want to try it for myself just to see if I agree!

      Replying to @double_clap

      I am definitely curious if you smell that soap as well! Check it out!
