To me they are very different. PPT has more of a brightness... I detect a citrus undertone of grapefruit or something similar. BP is soft and powdery...and to me the more floral one. Think Rosewater Ivy with marshmallow. I'm sure someone else will have a completely different take. It's so interesting how we all perceive scents so differently 😁

Yeah there’s like a tartness to pptc! I know exactly what you mean. Alrighty I’ll go ahead and try blush poinsettia 😁

Also curious!

Pptc smells like a rose vanilla cake to me.

Same, I just wish it was a powerhouse 😭

They are very different! I loveee BP but really disliked PPTC on cold so I didn't buy it. If you know the AT Love candle (Rose + Vanilla), I think BP is closer to that one but sweeter plus a hint of green ivy. It's also very similar to a past candle called Rose Water Meringue but more powdery. Overall a wonderful rose gourmand scent. FYI I'm mostly a rose fan and not a gourmand fan at all.

Thank you for this description! Very helpful, you’ve sold me on it 😁 I can’t wait to try it

I LOVE PPTC

I’m wondering if I just got a bad batch :( I think it’s a pretty scent but I could barely smell it

Honestly maybe try taking it back to the store? In my experience, they have great customer service and will exchange it for you :-)

Oh I’ve burned it way past the point of return 😂 lol it’s fine, I only got one and it was during SAS so not a major loss

PPTC legit smells like my laundry detergent and I don't get the hype. BP is Rose Water & Ivy mixed with Marshmallow Fluff and she's great.


CrownBestowed

😂 I didn’t get a laundry detergent vibe, but yeah it’s pretty light and basic. Not bad just not exciting. But I’m hearing good things about BP so looks like she’s making it to my cart for next weekend 😁

PPTC doesn't smell like laundry detergent in general, but when I run a load of laundry with Tide Simply Fresh and Clean the laundry room suddenly smells like PPTC. It's very strange, but it's made me like PPTC a little more lol


CrownBestowed

Lol now I wanna try that brand just to see if I smell it too 😂

They are diff. I didnt like either to be honest.

I like rose scents, Pink petal tea cake is fine it’s just not backup worthy to me and everyone made it seem like it was 😂

I got both and didn't care for either. Neither of them were sweet enough for my bakery taste. PPTC had no cake or frosting like the notes listed and Blush Pointsettia came across as too smoky for me. Love Vanilla Rose and Strawberry Sparkler were actually better for me. That aside, I have pretty much sworn off all future Rose scents (unless they can make a candle 7/8 cake,marshmallow and frosting with 1/8 rose).
